Polyantha Roses 

 Preside nt Taft. Jhis 



IS the 



grand Polyantha Rose, a hy- 

 brid between the variety Gruss 

 an Tephtz and Cramoisie Su- 

 perieure. The flowers, which 

 are very double, are of a bright 

 red color and have the per- 

 fume of the well-known Ameri- 

 can Beauty rose. The plants, 

 which are very bushy, grow 15 

 to 18 inches high and throw up 

 long branches, the same as 

 Gruss an Teplitz, and are very 

 free from disease. President 

 Taft is undoubtedly the finest 

 Polyantha Rose we have, and 

 we can recommend it very 

 highly to our customers. $1 

 each, Sio per doz.

 color of the flowers is similar to Dorothy Perkins. This variet)' has 

 created quite a sensation when e.xhibited at the English National Rose 

 Society's and other shows. " Baby Dorothy " when planted out, flow- 

 ers perpetually from spring until autumn. It makes an excellent pot 

 plant for forcing, and we therefore believe this Rose has a future before 

 it second to none in its class. Price for strong, field-grown plants. 35c.
