The Lovely Killarney Roses 



The Rose for Every Home. (See 

 PINK KILLARNEY (The Famous Irish Rose) — 



This queen of the Irish Roses excels any other 

 of its class and color yet introduced, and by 

 many is recognized as the most beautitui, hardy, 

 everblooming Hybrid Tea Rose now under culti- 

 vation. Each season since it was introduced Kil- 

 larney has increased in popularity, and the 

 demand has always exceeded the supply. The 

 bush is strong and upright, with beautiful, deep 

 bronzy green foliage, and the Rose is entirely 

 free-blooming, bearing immense, long pointed 

 buds and massive flowers on big, heavy shoots. 

 The color is deep, brilliant and sparkling shell- 

 pink, of the most exquisite shade. The flowers are 

 of delightful fragrance, immense size, and have 

 thick petals of great substance. Killarney is 

 unusually hardy and without protection has with- 

 stood severe winters as far north as Boston. 

 Strong plants, 30c each; 4 for $1, postpaid. 

 Extra strong two-year-old plants, on own roots, 

 85c each. 95c each by parcel post, with soil on 

 roots.
