NOVELTY ROSES FOR 1913 



We take much pleasure in introducing the following Roses. Our Mr. Harry A. Bunyard, while attending the International Horticul- 

 tural E.ichibition in London, last summer, made many copious notes, not only at the great sliow, but also at the nurseries he visited, with 

 the result that we are cataloguing the Roses we consider the best for American gardens — varieties that will be great acquisitions, and for 

 coloring and usefulness will please the most fastidious. The stock we offer is 'all two years old, English field-grown, and will flower 

 absolutely the first year of planting. All our Roses are imported and packed in bundles of five ; this facilitates handling and is to your 

 advantage. 



Tulict This, perhaps, is the most distinct Rose ever introduced 



s for color, which is unique. It is of the same type as So- 



leil d'Or, Rayon d'Or and other Austrian Briers and their hybrids. 

 It was introduced by VVm. Paul & Son, in igio. These types require 

 very little pruning: simply remove dead and useless wood. The fol- 

 lowing is the raiser's description : " Outside of petals old-gold, inte- 

 rior rich rosy red, changing to deep rose as the flowers expand. A 

 verj' distinct and attractive novelty, blooming both in summer and 

 autumn. Large and full, of powerful and delicious fragrance ; most 

 beautiful." 50 cts. each, $2.25 for 5, I40 per 100.

greatest late summer and fall Rose ever 

 introduced. While a true everbloonier, 

 it is not so perfect in early summer ; but 

 after most other Roses are gone, this 

 begins to come out strong and con- 

 tinues to improve until, in October 

 (here), it is cut down by frost. The 

 general color efTect is a peachy blush, 

 with yellow at base of petals. This 

 Rose has all the characteristics of the 

 Maman Cochet, from which it is descen- 

 ded, and is absolutely immune from 

 disease. Foliage is dark green, heavy 

 and leathery; young growth bronzy red. 

 In this latitude (New York City) it 

 will go through an ordinary winter with- 

 out protection, but protection is advis- 

 able as with other Roses. 50 cts. each, 

 $£25 for 5, S40 per 100.
