ncl; 



Antoine Rivoire. Soft rosy flesh on 

 large, full, and very free. 



Dorothy Page Roberts. Copper-' pink, suffused 

 apricot-yellow. A unique, large-petaled Rose of inde- 

 scribable shadings; a garden variety of great merit. 



Earl of Warwick. Rich, soft saImon-pini<, shaded 

 in the center with vermilion. A showy and magnifi- 

 cent variety, doing well under adverse climatic con- 

 ditions. 



Killarney. One of the most attractive Roses in 

 existence. Color bright, sparkling pink, shading to 

 white; long, pointed bud, opening into a large, well- 

 formed flower; very fragrant, hardy and extremely free 

 flowering. Most desirable. 



Killarney Queen. The Killarney Rose is perhaps 

 the most widely known and popular garden Rose. 

 Killarney Queen, an improved variety, is in every way 

 superior as a bedding subject. The growth is stronger 

 and more robust in appearance, the foliage being larger 

 and of a deep, healthy hue. Color sparkling, cerise- 

 pink, shading to a lighter pink at the base of the petals; 

 long, pointed bud which opens into an exceedingly large, 

 well-formed flower, if anything, more handsome when 

 full blown than when in the bud form. 



Killarney Brilliant. A sport from the original Kil- 

 larney Rose, but much more intense and rich in color, 

 varying from bright pink to deep rosy carmine. The 

 flowers are of greater substance and are very fragrant. 



Lady Alice Stanley. Deep coral-rose on the outside 

 of the petals, inside pale flesh, slightly flushed deeper 

 flesh. Beautiful, healthy foliage. One of the finest 

 garden Roses ever sent out. 



Lady Ursula. Large, full, flesh-pink flowers of great 

 substance carried erect on strong, rigid stems. Deli- 

 ciously tea-perfumed. A splendid garden Rose; un- 

 usually vigorous and hardy. 



Mme. Abel Chatenay. Carmine-rose, shaded sal 

 ing full, double flowers in profusion throughout the 

 decoration. 



White Killarney Roses 



A remarkably good Rose for the garden, produc- 

 Very hardy and satisfactory for cutting or garden 



Mme. Abel Chatenav R. 



Mrs. W. C. Miller. Very free flowering and of easy culture. A line 

 garden Rose. 



Prince de Bulgarie. Deep rosy flesh, shaded with salmon. A beau- 

 tiful, decorative Rose of largest size. 



Radiance. An American-bred Rose of so many excellent qualities 

 that it may be considered the best bedding Rose in this color. Flowers 

 large, perfect in form, and produced freely. The vigorous, branchy 

 growth invariably terminates in one or more flowers of a bright, car- 

 mine-salmon shade, mingled with rose, shading to a coppery yellow at 

 the base of the petals. The American Rose Society ofTicially recognized 

 its merit by awarding it a Silver Medal, 1914, as the most valu- 

 able garden Rose in this climate — the highest distinction yet 

 awarded a bedding Rose in America. 



Yellow, Orange, and Salmon 



Duchess of Portland. Sulphur-yellow; flowers very large, full, 

 and of fine form. Smooth, circular petals of great substance; a mag- 

 nificent variety for exhibition purposes. 



Dorothy Ratcliffe. In the bud stage, coral-red, changing to yellow 

 and fawn as the flower opens. 



Irish Fireflame. Single; rich, deep orange splashed crimson, 

 opening old-gold; splendid for cutting in sprays in bud form. 



Lady Pirrie. Outside of petals coppery, reddish salmon; apri- 

 cot-vellow, flushed fawn and copper on the inside. Not a very double 

 flower, but an excellent bedding Rose. Awarded the Silver IVledal of 

 the American Rose Society at the Hartford Test-Garden, June, 1915. 

 e it was considered by the examining committee one of the best 

 en Roses on trial. 



Louise Catherine Breslau. Pernetiana. Coral-red, shaded with 

 chrome-yellow; flowers large, very full and globular; very free. Growth 

 vigorous, with attractive, glossy foliage; very fine. 



Mabel Drew. Deep cream in the bud stage, passing to intense 

 canary-yellow towards the center as the flower opens; large, full, de- 

 liciously scented flowers carried on vigorous stems.
