YELLOW RAMBLER (Agiaia.) 



The Only Hardy Yellow Climbing Rose. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER. 



The Wonderful Hardy Climbing Rose. 



yEbbOW- 



A charming companion to Crimson Rambler, pos- 

 sessing the same habit of growth, hardiness, profuse 

 blooming in clusters, and other characteristics, and 

 differing only in color. It is one of the most beautiful 

 of all climbing Roses, and the only yellow climbing 

 Rose that is absolutely l^ardy. The flowers are of a 

 rich, deep golden yellow i.nd of good size, cup-shaped 

 and nearly full; borne in huge clusters, are very 

 sweetly scented and continue in perfection for several 

 weeks without fadmg. The growth is very vigorous 

 and the bloom excessively profuse and continuous, a 

 bush of it in full bloom presenting a splendid appear- 

 ance. Its hardiness and rare color will make it as pop- 

 ular as Crimson Rambler, and it should be in every 

 garden. Ea., 10c; 3 for 25c; doz., $1.00. From 4 in. 

 pots, ea., 20c: 3 for 50c; doz., $1.50. Heavy field 

 grown, 3 to 5 ft. tops, ea., 25c; 3 for $1.00; doz., $3.50. 



Empress Alexandra of Russia (Tea). 



An exquisite Rose of a uniqus and pleasing shade of 

 color. The buds are bronzy salmon, open flowers, rich 

 lake red, shaded with orange and fiery crimson ; very 

 large, full and globular; of vigorous growth and of 

 extraordinary freedom in blooming, the flowers pre- 

 senting a splendid effect both on the plant and when 

 cut. A gorgeous decorative Rose, quite distinct both 

 in color and form fi'om any hitherto introduced and it 

 has received an award of Merit from the Royal Horti- 

 cultural Society of England. Ea., 20c; 3 for '50c. 



CHEVALIER A. FERRARIO (Tea).

 made; of a splendid deep, clear crimson color, wonder- 

 fully handsome. A vigorous grower and free bloomer.

MRS. SHARMAN-CRAWFORD. 



(H. P). 



A superb variety with large flowers of perfect form, 

 magnificent in bud, deep rosy-pink with outer petals 

 shaded pale flesh color and white at base of petals; a 

 vigorous grower, profuse and constant bloomer, flow- 

 ering from early summer until lati in autumn. It has 

 been awarded the gold medal of the National Rose So- 

 ciety of England and many first-class certificates. Ea., 

 20c ; 3 for 50c, From 4 in. pots or field grown, ea., 35c; 

 3 for $1.00. 6 5'^ 



Seldom has any 

 Rose called forth 

 such enthusiastic 

 praise and intense 

 admiration or so 

 rapidly become 

 popular as the now well- 

 known Crimson Rambler, 

 and the demand for it is 

 ever increasing. It is well 

 worthy of it all. It is a climbing 

 Rose of vigorous habit and rapid 

 growth, producing in maivelous 

 profusion large pyramidal clus- 

 ters of bright crimson, semi- dou- 

 ble flowers of great substance, 

 which remain a long time and re- 

 tain their bright color until they 

 fall. Its excessive flowering propensity is so great as 

 to seem almost incredible. A single bush has been 

 known to have upon it, at one time, more than 5000 

 flowers and buds, and on one single shoot alone has 

 been counted more than 300 perfect blooms. It is en- 

 tirely hardy without protection and its abundant dark 

 green glossy foliage, which remains healthy and clean 

 through the summer, renders it attractive at all times. 

 A splendid variety for covering walls, verandas, pil- 

 lars, etc., being so vigorous in growth as to make 

 shoots of from eight to ten feet during the season; or 

 it may be pegged down or grown in bush form with 

 rich and striking effect. , It is also very handsome and 

 interesting as a pot plant. Its profusion of bloom is 

 simply astonishing, producing a perfect blaze of rich 

 color and flowering for an unusually long period. 

 Everyone should have a Crimson Rambler. Ea., 10c; 

 3 for 25c; doz., $1.00. From 4 m. pots, ea., 20c; 3 for 

 50c; doz., $1.50. Heavy field grown, 4 to 6 ft. tops, 

 ea., 35c; 3 for $1.00; doz,, $3.50. 



ROYAL CLUSTER. 



This new, double, hardy climbing Rose is a cross be- 

 tween Dawson and Hermosa. It bears clusters of over 

 one hundred flowers, the color being white tinted with 

 blush. Over Crimson Rambler it has the advantage of 

 a spicy fragrance; and at the same time it apparently 

 possesses all the good qualities of Crimson Rambler, 

 which is saying a great deal. From 2i< in. pots, ea., 

 20c; 3 for 50c. 



SOUV.deMME.EUGENE VERDIER 



(Hybrid Tea). 

 Flowers of exquisite form, large, very full, rich 

 creamy- white shading to yellow; buds large and point- 

 ed, very handsome. Extra fine for cutting. A vigor- 

 ous grower with strong thorny canes; an excellent bed- 

 ding Rose; very constant in bloom. Ea., 15c; 3 for 35c. 



CLIO (H. P). 



A magnificent Rose of great beauty, decidedly the 

 finest Hybrid Perpetual of its color yet introduced. It 

 has large, handsome flowers, of fine globular form, 

 solid and massive, with broad petals, of a delicate flesh 

 color. Ea., 20c; 3 for 50c. From 4 in. pots or field 

 grown, ea., 35c; 3 for $1.00.
