GREENHOUSE ROSES, continued 



Killarney. The Rose that made history and changed 

 the Rose-growing industry of America from a losing 

 proposition to a profitable one. Killarney and its 

 sports have been the leading; \arieti(-S of commerce 

 for many years. Kill.ii iic'\- \ aiics in color, but its 

 light, delicate pink is tin l.i\ciiuc u\ main'. 



Killarney Brilliant. li> m l. c KilUuney Brilliant 



has come into its own as the liest of the pink s])orts 

 of Killarney. It is deeper in color and fully as strong 

 and vigorous from selected stock. It is the best dark 

 pink Rose we have for general growing. 



Killarney Queen, ((iraf ted only.) The show Rose of 

 the Killanu-y family. As it has less petals, it is not 

 at all times the equal of Killarney Brilliant. Its color 

 is distinct, being a clear, deep rose-pink. Its habit is 

 strong, making long, heavy growths which produce 

 show flowers that cannot be beaten. It is righth 

 named and will have friends as long as the tlowt r 

 shows and critical flower-buyers exist. Owing to its 

 hard, heavy growths, it is the finest of the Killarnex 

 family as a garden Rose. 



Lady Alice Stanley. Deep, clear rose-pink in color 

 Very doubU' llowers that open perlccl It is a 

 garden Rose ol great value, and as a < .1 rmhou-M- 

 Rose it has many friends. It is of eas\ luihus. .uiows

 when matured is equaled by none ol iIm- olllrl^. and 

 its easy habit of growth, coiuKiiud with it-^ lurdon 

 of flowering, retains for it a place among the gooj 

 varieties of Greenhouse Roses. It is a gk)rious sIumI 

 of copper-yellow when expanded, improving in coloi 

 as the flower matures. 



Milady. The habit of growth is strong and sturdy, 

 and the foliage is excellent. The liower is large and 

 double and opens perfectb- at all seasons ol the year. 

 In color it is similar to Richmond, although richer in 

 color in the bud. 



Miss Cynthia Forde. (Grafted only.) Among the 

 garden Roses of America, this Rose is recognized as 

 one of the best, and continuetl trial conx inces us that 

 there is a place for it under i;lass. It yiows well, 

 handles easily, and produces uood lio\\ei< m uood 

 quantity. It is an attr.iciue -li.ide oi ii>-e-|niik in 

 color. It makes good >leiiw and 1- a Rose that will 

 lie well worth a trial b\" an\ Rosi'-yrow ei .

 \er\- sueeev<tully inside by a number of prominent 

 Rose-grow ers.

 rile expanding liower. is a uniwisal la\otite. Its 

 u-;es are \aried. It is a summer and a winter Rose, 

 good at all seasons. Wonderfully free-fiowering at 

 all times. 



Mrs. Charles RusselL By far the most popular Rose 

 that has ever been offered, troin the cut-tlower stand- 

 point. It is a wonderful keeper when cut. and this 

 fact alone would make it deser\ edl\- popular. It is a 

 strong-growing variety, making lieavy wood and 

 strong stems. The foliage is heavy and not inclined 

 to mildew. It is not easily propagated or grafted, | 

 and this accounts for the advanced price.

Mrs. Geo. Shawyer. A brilliantly colored Rose; deep 



pink, with a soft tint to it that makes it a favorite. 

 It is a big Rose in every respect and one of the best 

 that can be grown. Heavy and double enough to be 

 good in warm weather, and opens perfectly in mid- 

 winter. It is a ijrotluciT and an excellent pink Rose. 

 Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan. (Grafted only.) An old- 

 time favorite, retained for the Rose-lover who is 

 partial to this variety. Shell-pink, tinged cerise, 

 describes the color. We graft a limited quantity. 

 Order early.
