EMPRESS OF CHINA (Climbing). INCONSTANT BEAUTY (Tea). 



The Rose of Many Colors. 



The Apple B.ossom Rose. 



Magnificent is none too strong a word to apply to 

 this hardy, perpetual flowering climber for it is" one of 

 the finest that has ever been introduced, combining 

 distinct and valuable features found in no other climb- 

 ing Rose. The flowers are of good size, semi-double, 

 elegant in bud, and of a soft, rich dark pink becoming 

 lighter in shade as the flowers open, resembling in color 

 and fragrance the beautiful apple blossom. It is an 

 exceedingly rapid grower and its abundance of bloom 

 is truly amazing, continuing to put forth its flowers 

 throughout the entire season from early summer until 

 frost. The plant is entirely hardy and succeeds every- 

 where; foliage healthy and clean, entirely free from 

 blight or other disease. Ea., 10c; 3 for 25c; doz., SI. 00. 

 Extra fine plants, from 4 m. pots, ea,, 20c; 3 for 50c;

CLIMBING SOUY. DE WOOTTON. 



Best of its class and color. Its flowers are almost iden- 

 tical in color with those of the famous Sou v. de Wootton, 

 but larger in size and exquisite in beauty and form ; 



deep, rich, velvety crimson, glow- 

 ing with color, borne in large 

 clusters and produced in exceed- 

 ing profusion. It is a vigorous, 

 I'apid grower, hardy and hand- 

 some, exciting the greatest ad- 

 miration when in bloom from all 

 beholders. Ea.,

INCONSTANT BEAUTY. 



Of great beauty and decidedh^ unique. Its effective 

 appearance when in full bloom is most novel, com- 

 manding the admiration of all. The remarkable feat- 

 ure of this Rose lies in the fact that its flowers are of 

 varied hues. They vary in color fro 31 pale yellow to 

 the deepest crimson, exhibiting blooms on the same 

 bush that are yellow, buff, salmon, apricot, blush, 

 pink, carmine, etc. The delightful effect may be 

 imagined when we add that it is most floriferous, 

 blooming profusely and continuously throughout the 

 season. The buds are large, pointed, of fine form and 

 deliciously fragrant; a true Tea Rose. It is one of the 

 best for outdoor culture and its blooms are especially 

 fine for cutting. To see this remarble Rose is to want 

 it. It commands much attention everywhere grown. 

 Ea., loc: 3 for 35c; doz., S1.25. 



CLIMBING WHITE PET (Polyantha). 



White Pet Rambler. 



Truly wonderful in the rapidity of its growth and 

 remarkable freedom of bloom, being an unusually 

 vigorous grower and incessant in the profusion of its 

 flowers. It is a charming companion of the Rambler 

 Roses fully equalling the best of them in its rapid pro- 

 duction of vine and bloom. The flowers are very dou- 

 ble and full, of medium size, pure snowy white, and 

 borne in large clusters continuously throughout the 

 whole season. They are sweetly fragrant and among 

 the most delightful of Roses. The plant needs but 

 moderate protection in the coldest climate and thrives 

 everywhere in the most wonderful fashion. It is a 

 splendid climber and presents a magnificent sight when 

 in full bloom, its long, slender branches, deep green 

 foliage and iunumerabJe clusters of^flowers forming a 

 glorious picture of grace and beauty. Ea., 15c; doz., 

 |l.25. Very strong, from 4 in. pots, ea., 25c; 3 for 60c.
