If any Rose has 

 earned the title of 

 the "Xational Rose" 

 it is American 

 Beauty. Wherever 

 the Rose is known, 

 it is the queen, and 

 deservedly so. In 

 size, color, form and 

 fragrance it has no 

 equal. Of quick, 

 healthy, bushy 

 growth, either In 



pots or outdoors, with magnificent foliage, it produces in abundance glo- 

 rious buds and large, deep, double flowers of immense size. The three 

 kinds below make a gorgeous combination.

 prepared soil by our own expert growers. We guarantee our plants to 

 be true to name, absolutely first-class in every particular. Color, rich 

 crimson, charmingly .shaded and veined. As the flowers expand, their

 not excelled by any Rose known. Great, lusty, one-year-old plants, from

 American Beauty, of which it is an offspring, except in color, which is soft, rich pink, fading still lighter as the 

 flower grows older. Has the same large, massi\e, cup-shaped flowers and fragrance; in short, it is a lovely 

 blonde full sister to the dark brunette, American Beauty. Ours is the original stock, not to be had elsewhere.
