CARMINE PILLAR— NEW CLEMATIS- 

 FLOWERED ROSE No. 94.

 One of the real charming Roses, with single 

 flowers 12 to 15 inches in circumference; of the 

 brightest rosy carmine and produced in great 

 profusion. The editor of Gardening says of it: 

 "Paul's Carmine Pillar Rose is in bloom, and 

 what a beauty it is! Saucer-shaped single Roses, 

 fully three inches in diameter, of the color that 

 gave it its name, dot the bush from the ground 

 up to its tips, some eight or more feet high. A 

 matured plant must be a sight worth going miles 

 to see. This Rose is undoubtedly hardy in most 

 sections of our country, and in all sections under

David F. Davids, New Rochelle. New York, under date of February 5th. 1f""i3. writes us as follows: 

 "Seeing your advertisement in the 'Ladies' World"' reminds me that about twenty-rive year< 

 ordered some two dozen Rose bushes from you, and most of them are living yet. although they were 

 transplanted last spring to my new place. For years their blooms were the admiration of all who saw 

 them, and I am sure brought you many orders from this place."
