York and Lancaster 



A RARE OLD. ROSE 



For nearly twenty years we have had this Rose in our collection, endeavoring to build up a stock, but, 

 inasmuch as it is a shy rooter, we have been unable to offer it, and now have it only in limited quantities. 

 This is perhaps the rarest and most extraordinary Rose in cultivation. It belongs to the Centifolia, a type 

 celebrated for the exquisite fragrance of its flowers. It dates back to the time of the War of the Roses, between 

 the Royal Houses of York and Lancaster. Color remarkably red and white, sometimes blotched and some- 

 times striped; full and double. Perfectly hardy. First size, two-year-old plants, 75 cts. each; larger plants, 

 Umited supply, $1 each. 



Special Collection. 



SEVEN PURE WHITE ROSES. We will send seven purest white varieties 

 of Hardy Hybrid Perpetual Roses, postpaid, for 80 cts. This collection is spe- 

 cially adapted for cemetery planting ; the varieties axe entirely hardy.
