Greenhouse View 



rOR general planting, more especially in open ground, this class excels all others. One-year- 

 old plants, such as we send by Mail, bloom the first and each succeeding year, from early 

 Spring until severe frosts. Two-year-old plants, of course, yield a greater profusion of 

 flowers, owing to their size. The flowers are noted for their exquisite coloring and delight- 

 ful fragrance. Hardy everywhere in open ground with protection of litter, leaves, evergreen 

 boughs or similar material. Plant liberally of one-year-old Roses, the harvest of bloom they 

 give the fir-st year compensates for the trifling outlay. Any one can succeed with them. 



We Outstrip All Competition Both in Quality and Price 



Not only do we offer the largest and most complete collection of Roses in America, but we do more — 

 we offer the highest quality at the lowest prices, which is more important to the buyer. We claim 

 for our stock that it is better grown than any other, and therefore success is almost certain with 

 D. & C. Roses. We do not believe it possible to grow good Roses in a pot less than two and a hali 

 inches in diameter. Many of our one-year-old Roses are grown in three-inch pots. It costs more tcl 

 grow such plants, but a lifetime's experience has taught us that zvhat is good for customers is good 

 for us. Such stock as we offer is far superior to Roses grown in one-and-a-half and two-inch pots, 

 Our prices are low — our stock the best. For the season of 1907 we have the finest as well as the 

 largest stock of Roses we have ever had. You have a stock of over one million plants to choose from.

ALINE SISLEY 



. One of the Best 



This is a splendid free -flowering, strong-growing, 

 dark-colored Tea, and beyond a doubt one of the 

 most satisfactory varieties for open ground culture, 

 where it grows to perfection. The flowers are very 

 large, full and double. The color is a rich, rare 

 shade of violet red, brightened with crimson ma- 

 roon. The fragrance is exceedingly sweet, and 

 more pronounced than is found in most Teas. It 

 Mooms with wonderful freedom. A grand red 

 variety, and one we think a great deal of. 



ANDREW SCHWARTZ 



"Ever-Blooming Jack" 



Since its introduction this Rose has been known 

 as the "true Tea Jacqueminot" because of its strik- 

 ing resemblance to that famous variety. The flow- 

 ers are beautifully made, being large, full and of 

 excellent substance. The color is brilliant, glowing 

 scarlet, passing to rich crimson, very bright and 

 strikingly beautiful. It is a strong, sturdy grower 

 and a constant and profuse bloomer. It cannot be 

 surpassed in open ground. 



ANNA OLIVER 



A Superb Free- Blooming Rose 



. A strong, vigorous grower, soacceeding in almost 

 any situation; indeed, we believe this to be one of 

 the best varieties^old or new — for general cultiva- 

 tion. The flowers are extra large, with a full doub.? 

 form and splendid substance; color lovely creamy 

 blush (buff) shaded with deep carmine, beautifully 

 tinged and edged with silvery rose; very fragrant. 

 Good in every way. 



BON SILENE 

 A Grand Old Rose 



This remarkable Rose was introduced in 1839, and 

 up to this time no new variety has superseded it, a 

 fact that bears ample testimony to its valuable 

 qualities. It is superb in every way. Perhaps the 

 most noted feature is the immense size and baautj 

 of its buds, which cannot be surpassed for bouquets 

 and decorative purposes. The color is deep rose, 

 sometimes bright rosy crimson, occasionally pak 

 light rose. In the open ground it grows to perfec- 

 tion, producing crop after crop of its beautiful flow- 

 ers in unbroken continuity, from early Spring unti 

 late in Autumn. Of all the Teas there are nont 

 better (see illustration, page 46)
