General List of Greenhouse Varieties 



PLEASE NOTE 



Bon Silene. One of the small 

 Roses. Cherry red in color 

 and very fragrant. A pro- 

 fuse bloomer and an old- 

 time favorite. 



Bride. Pure white in color, 

 but for general growing 

 White KiUarney is to be 

 preferred. 



Bridesmaid. Clear pink and 

 an old favorite, but general- 

 ly replaced by newer va- 

 rieties. 



Cardinal . Light red or deep 

 cerise in color. Very beau- 

 tiful in all stages of develop- 

 ment, but requiring a high 

 temperatiu-e for successful 

 culture. 



Double White KiUarney. 



The Budlong strain of 

 White KiUarney; has more 

 petals than the Waban 

 White KiUarney and these 

 petals have more substance 

 and are purer white in color. 

 It needs more heat than the 

 Waban strain and is a bet- 

 ter Rose when properly 

 grown.

 I Ahmet ti and plants on 

 rhesu two photographs 



are of average plants. We advise tlu 

 planting of 3-inch grafted plants wliicl 

 are a size larger than that shown 

 in this illustration. The 4-inch 

 size means increased express charges 

 antl plants which are more liable to suf- 

 fer breakage in transit. We will grow 

 your Rose stock to order under number 

 to identify your plants. Allow four weeks 

 for the shift from 2 J^-inch to 3-inch pots. 

 Allow six weeks from 3-inch pots to 4-inch. 



Be sure to specify in ordering whether 

 you wish grafted plants or own root. 

 Advise us as to shifting to larger pots as 

 may be needed to have them right when 

 you receive them. We sell three plants of 

 a variety at the dozen price and twenty- 

 five plants of a variety at the hundred 

 price.

Double White KiUarney 



(iolden Gate. Light pink 

 in color. Very strong in 

 growth and exceedingly 

 productive. For years it 

 was widely grown, but is 

 being replaced by newer 

 varieties. 



Ivory. The cream-white 

 sport of Golden Gate. 



Jonkheer J. L. Mock. 



Deep cerise pink in color, 

 producing large flowers. 

 As a Summer Rose it is 

 good; as a A\'inter Hose it 

 requires extra heat. 



Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. 



An old favorite where 

 good white Roses are 

 wanted in Sunnner. It is 

 not a Winter Rose and if 

 planted should be gotten in- 

 to the bench early to get 

 the full benefit of the entire 

 growing season. We have 

 an uimsually fine lot of 

 grafted plants — as grafted 

 Kaiserin is to be preferred. 

 It is also one of our finest 

 garden varieties. Wc refer 

 you to page 16 for the 2- 

 year size.
