Xhousand Beauties 



The Great New German Rose TAUSENDSCHON 



See Color Plate Illustration Following Page. 



AUSENDSCHON, which in German means Thousand Beauties, is a very appropriate name to give 

 this great novelty, which we now offer for the first time. It has been our good fortune to place 

 before our customers nearly all, if not entirely all, the many Roses now famous for their beauty 

 and merits. We are free to predict that Thousand Beauties will become THE MOST SEN- 

 SATIONAL CLIMBING ROSE YET INTRODUCED, not barring the great CRIMSON RAM- 

 BLER. Imagine a Rose producing on the same bush so many different colored flowers that it is impossible 

 to describe or even picture the variations. A single cluster of flowers is a whole bouqiet in itself, hence 

 the very fitting name, " THOUSAND BEAUTIES." Blooming profusely from the beginning of June until 

 the last of July, the flowers appear in large clusters, 10 to 15 in a cluster, are of splendid size and quite 

 double. The colors run from delicate balsam or tender rose through the intermediate shades of bright 

 rose and carmine, with white, yellow and various other delicate tints showing. There is no other Rose 

 in cultivation like it. It is a strong grower, with but few thorns, magnificent foliage, a valuable feature 

 in itself, impervious against mildew and absolutely hardy in the open ground anywhere. Wherever 

 shown it has created a veritable sensation, and has been awarded numerous medals. For climbing over 

 porches, bowers, pergolas or trellises, or for single specimens or pyramids, it will please you from the day 

 you plant it. We pronounce it the most remarkable Rose of its kind in the world. Plant this Rose— it 

 will cause a veritable sensation in your neighborhood. All our stock is on own roots. Additional des- 

 cription and illustration is shown on page 25.

THE STRAWBERRY GUAVA 



A MAGNIFICENT PLANT-BLOOMS AND FRUITS CONTINUOUSLY 



A NEW pot plant of great value, 

 ■^ both useful and ornamental, which 

 bids fair to become as popular as 

 Otaheite Orange. The Guava has 

 thick, shining, evergreen Camellia-like 

 foliage, with pure white flowers of an 

 agreeable odor. The fruit is large, 

 about the size of an English walnut, and 

 of beautiful claret color ; the flavor is 

 most delicious, sweet and aromatic, 

 resembling that of the strawberry. Used 

 as a dessert fruit also for preserving; 

 makes jelly of delicious quality, which 

 brings an enormous price. Blooms and 

 fruits continuously ; once established is 

 ever producing buds, flowers or fruit in 

 some stage every day in the year. A 

 plant eighteen months old has borne 

 over 500 fruits, and a plant which could 

 be covered with a box four feet wide 

 and two and one-half feet deep had 

 1005 fruit blooms and buds at one 

 time. A magnificent plant for pot or 

 box, or in the open ground.
