Isabella Sprunt 



Isabella Sprunt Rose 



This golden yellow Rose has been known as a favorite foi 

 over twenty years. It is a free bloomer, producing flowers of 

 bright canary-yellow, very sweetly scented. The buds are 

 very desirable for cut-flowe*-?. 



Duchesse de Brabant 



A very vigorous and healthy variety, producing large 

 blossoms which are beautiful in buds or open flower. The 

 color is a fine shade of soft, rosy pink, which deepens to 

 bright rose. A special favorite. 



DUCHESSE MARIE SALVIATI. A constant bloomer, and 

 a sturdy, vigorous grower, producing beautiful yellow flowers 

 tinged with orange, changing to buff, and prettily flushed 

 with pale rose, which are extra-large and very fragrant. 



E. T. COOK. Pale primrose-yellow, suffused with pink, as 

 the flower expands. Large and full petals reflex at the edges. 



SOUVENIR DE CLAIRVAUX. The color is bright pinkish 

 rose, shading lighter or darker, according to season; flowers 

 large, full and double, remaining on the bush a long time. A 

 beautiful Pose, similar to Bridesmaid; growth is very strong. 



EMPRESS EUGENIE. This Rose is a favorite and should 

 be in every garden. The plants are sturdy, thrifty growers 

 with healthy, dark green foliage. They bloom profusely. 

 The flowers are a deep, rich pink, very attractive and pretty. 



ENCHANTRESS. A free bloomer, bearing immense globu- 

 lar flowers in large clusters: a vigorous grower. Color 

 creamy white, tinged with buff in center. Splendid in pots for late autumn and winter 

 blooming, as well as for planting in the open ground during the summer.

This new Rose is an extremely strong-grow- 

 ing variety, producing heavy stems, with 

 large, healthy foliage, and flov.-ers almost the 

 equal and style of Helen Gould, but more 

 double; deep rose, with silvery rose center. 

 ►i^Also in three-year-old plants, 75 cts. each. 



Do you know what makes a good Rose? Probably 

 not; then listen: All roses on their own roots, and they 

 are the best, are grown from cuttings and branches of the 

 PARENT plant. Say the parent plant produces five 

 cuttings or young plants with TWO eyes or branches, 

 from which it makes other branches. In order to make 

 the parent plant pay a great percentage it can be cut 

 into ten ONE-eyed cuttings — making ten young plants 

 instead of five two-eyed plants. These one-eyed plants, 

 sold at 15 cents each, will bring $1.50, while if they 

 are made from two-eyed cuttings, as we make them, 

 they will bring but $1.00 at 20 cts. each — a seemingly 

 higher price; but a plant of this kind has twice the 

 vitality and twice the blooming capacity of the one-eyed 

 kind. They are the only kind to buy. Just remember 

 when comparing prices that all our plants are grown 

 from these high-grade, two-eyed plants^ the best in the 

 woild. If you want the weak, one-eyed plants, they can 

 be had cheaper, and so they ought to be. We do not 

 grow them, much less sell them.
