 frost, immense trusses of small flowers.

blooms of a clear bright pink color.

Two Perpetual Flowering 

 Bedding Roses

 with e,\ceptionally large flowers for this type, always a mass of 

 bloom throughout the season. Color flesh pink with salmon 

 and yellow shadings, very effective as a bedder. 



Pink Gruss an Aachen. This desirable variety originated as a 

 sport from Cruss an Aachen, retaining all of the good qualities of 

 that free flowering bedding variety but it is more striking in 

 color, it being deeper and more intense particularly in the pink 

 suffusion.

Trailing Hybrid-Rugosa 

 Rose Mcix Graf

 most valuable as a ground cover for which purpose it is far superior 

 to any of the Wichuraiana varieties. The foliage resembles Rosa 

 Rugosa, is retained very late in the season, it is practically immune 

 to insects and diseases and is absolutely hardy. Its flowers are 

 large, single, bright pink with prettily crimped petals. For 

 planting on a steep bank or for trailing over a stone wall, it has 

 no equal. 75c each; $8.00 per doz. 



New Hybrid-Rugosa Rose 

 Dr. Eckener

 hardy type of Rose. It will be found particularly valuable to plant

 the garden. It is strong, vigorous and hardy in growth, with good 

 sized flowers of cupped form and entirely distinct in color, being a 

 silken or luminous buff pink with golden suffusion. $1,00 each;

freedom from disease, and ability to do well even under the most 



adverse conditions of soil and climate.

 a^ they develop, the only Rugosa of a yellow color. The flowers

Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. Clear, silvery rose. 



Hansa. Attractive double reddish violet. 



Red F. J. Grootendorst. Ima'^dne a shrub-like Rugosa Rose 

 covereil with showy trusses of crimson Rambler Roses and you 

 will have a fair conception of this new hybrid variety. It is 

 valuable to plant as an isolated specimen or in a mass in a bed 

 or in the shrubbery or as an everblooming hedge. It is abso- 

 lutely hardy and continues in bloom until late in the fall.

 grown as pill.ir Roses.

 Lady Penzance. Beautiful soft tint of copper with metallic 



lustre, the l).ise of each petal toned yellow.
