ROSES

Magnafrano 
One of the grandest Roses in cultivation. The flowers are very 
large, full, deep and double, and of delightful fragrance. The color of 
this magnificent Rose is bright, shining rose, with rich shadings of 
deeper tones. It forms a strong, sturdy, upright bush, bearing its 
gorgeous flowers on long, stiff stems, making it especially valuable 
for cutting. 
MME. LAURE DUPONT. A charming, bright carmine-red Rose with 
Shadings of rose, white and carmine in its petals. The flowers are 
” full, double and particularly handsome when fully open. 
MME. MELANIE SOUPERT. The flowers are bright 
golden-yellow suffused with faint tinges of pink, 
with a handsome and djstinct form, making a Rose 
of great beauty. It is astrong, vigorous grower, very 
hardy, and forms a handsome bush in the garden. 
MME. PHILIPPE RIVOIRE. One of the handsomest of 
the yellow Roses, its color ranging from bright 
apricot-yellow to shades of pale carmine. The 
bush is a stout, vigorous grower and is constantly 
in bloom with a profusion of well-formed, large, 
double flowers 
MRS. OLIVER AMES. Creamy white, suf- 
fused and shaded with pink; splendid 
foliage. Strong grower and free bloomer. 
MY MARYLAND. Handsome in bud and 
os flower. A rare combination of a poetic 
name and exquisite beauty has made 
this Hybrid Tea Rose a dangerous rival 
of Killarney. Its brilliant, lively shade 
of pink and beauty of form is without a 
Superior, and all summer through large, 
perfectly double, magnificent flowers, rich in fragrance, are borne on 
long, stiff stems, growing from a sturdy, fine shaped bush, which in 
= itself, is a distinct ornament to the garden. A great outdoor Rose. 
Extremely hardy. First size, 20c. each, 4 for 50c.; larger size, 30c. 
Magnafrano each; two-year-old

Madame Schwaller 
A beautiful combination of salmon-rose with the edges of 
the petals touched with violet-carmine. One of the most 
fragrant of all Roses. A particularly strong grower, forming 
a handsome bush, and constantly in bloom. 
METEOR. Very few dark Roses compare with this in richness 
and depth of color, which is a rich, velvety crimson, shading 
very dark in the depths of the petals. The buds and flowers 
are remarkably large and of elegant form, full and double. 
As a garden Rose it has few equals, being particularly valu- 
able for bedding on account of its sturdy growth and hand- 
some foliage. It is also valuable for growing indoors in 
pots or in the conservatory, and is constantly in bloom. 
MRS. HARVEY THOMAS. Brilliant carmine shaded with cop- 
pery red. Forms a stout, erect bush, constantly in bloom. 
MRS. JOHN BATEMAN. Deep China rose color, yellow at the 
base of petals.
