HARDY ROSES 
37 
EVERBLOOMING BEDDING ROSES^-Continued 
Frau Karl Druschki, or Snow Queen. H.P. A 
pure, paper- white free-flowering, large size; a re- 
markably handsome p±ant, with bright, heavy 
foliage and strong, upright growth; the bloom is 
perfect in form, on nice long stems, and of the pur- 
est possible white. There is nothing in the line of 
perfectly hardy Roses that can compare with this 
one in form, color and general finish. 
General Jacqueminot. H.P. Brilliant crimson; not 
full, but large and extremely effective; fragrant 
and of excellent hardy habit; forces well. One of 
the best known and most popular red roses grown. 
Harrison's Yellow. A. Golden yellow, medium- 
sized; semi-double; generally has nine leaflets; 
a freer bloomer than Persian Yellow, but not so 
hardy. 
Hugh Dickson. Brilliant crimson. The plants are 
strong and thrifty, with healthy dark green foli- 
age. The flowers are of good size and fine form 
and retain their intensity of color until petals 
fall. Very fragrant. 
John Hopper. H.P. Bright rose, with carmine 
center; large and full, semi-globular; light red 
thorns, stout, bushy growth. A free-blooming 
standard sort. 
Louis Van Houtte. Red, shaded crimson; large, 
full, fine form; fragrant. 
Mabel Morrison. H.P. Flesh white, changing to 
pure white; in the autumn it is sometimes tinged 
with pink; semi-double, cup-shaped flowers. In 
all save color and substance of petals, this variety 
is identical with Baroness Rothschild. A very 
valuable white Rose. 
Madame Gabriel Luizet. H.P. Silvery pink! 
fragrant; fine foliage; vigorous; exquisite in bud- 
This Rose has no superior. 
Madame Plan tier. H.Ch. Pure white; flowers of 
medium size; full, flat form; foliage rather small; 
one of the best white Roses for hedges and massing. 
Early in the season the flowers are produced in 
great profusion. 
Magna Gharta. H.Ch. Pink, suffused with car- 
mine; large flowers, full, globular; foliage and 
wood light green, numerous dark spines. A 
fragrant, excellent variety. Very vigorous. 
Margaret Dickson. H.P. A magnificent Rose* 
white, with pale flesh center; petals very large; 
shell shaped and of great substance; fragrant; 
foliage large, dark green. Very vigorous. 
Marie Baumann. H.P. Brilliant carmine-crimson; 
large, full, of exquisite color and form; very 
fragrant. 
Mrs. John Laing. H.P. Soft pink; large and of 
fine form, produced on strong stems; exceedingly 
fragrant; one of the most valuable varieties for 
forcing; flowers continuously in open ground. 
Mrs. R. G. Sharman-Crawford. H.P. Color deep 
rosy-pink, outer petals shaded with pale flesh, 
white at base of petals; flowers large and freely 
produced; flowering from early summer until late 
in the fall; growth vigorous. 
M. P. Wilder. H.P. Of vigorous growth, with 
healthy foliage; flowers large, semi-globular, full, 
well-formed; cherry-carmine, very fragrant. Con- 
tinues to bloom long after other hybrid perpetuals 
are out of bloom. 
Paul Neyron. H.P. Deep rose; very large, very 
full; somewhat fragrant; free-blooming; the 
wood is nearly smooth, the foliage tough and en- 
during; somewhat tender; the growth is upright. 
Largest variety known; very desirable for the 
garden. 
Persian Yellow. A bright yellow; small, nearly full, 
well formed; small foliage, faintly scented like the 
sweet-brier; seven leaflets; the wood is chocolate- 
brown in color, armed with numerous brown 
thorns; it is the finest of all hardy yellow Roses. 
It must not be closely pruned. 
Prince Gamille de Rohan. H.P. Very deep vel 
vety-crimson; large, moderately full; habit some- 
what spreading; shy in autumn. A good Rose of 
splendid color, but a moderate grower. 
Soleil d'Or. H.P. A valuable hybrid, which is a 
cross between the Persian Yellow and the hybrid 
perpetual A. Ducher. It has strong, ample 
foliage, very handsome and entirely hardy. It is 
one of the most valuable Roses on account of its 
remarkably distinct blooms, varying from gold 
and orange to reddish gold, shaded with nastur- 
tium-red. 
Ulrich Brunner. H.P. Brilliant cherry-red, very 
effective in color; flowers of fine form and finish, 
carried well upon the plant; petals of great sub- 
stance; vigorous, hardy, resists mildew. One of 
the best for forcing and open-air culture. 
White Moss. M. Pure white; blooms in large 
clusters; very mossy bud. 
HARDY CLIMBING ROSES 
We include under this head the various classes of 
hardy, vigorous growers, usually catalogued as climbers. 
Baltimore Belle. A fine old variety. Fine white 
with blush center; very full and double. 40c. 
Crimson Rambler. The foliage is rich, dark green; 
the growth rapid and diverse, but its great beauty 
is when the plant is covered with a profusion of the 
brightest crimson, partly double flowers which 
remain on a long time. 35c; extra heavy, 50c. 
Dorothy Perkins. This is a splendid new shell-pink 
climbing Rose. It has the same strong habit of 
growth as the Crimson Rambler, and the flowers 
are borne in clusters of thirty or forty, sometimes 
fifty or sixty. The flowers are large for a Rose of 
this class, very double, and sweetly scented. !: 35c; 
extra heavy, 50c. 
Dorothy Perkins Red (Excelsa). Very double crim- 
son-maroon flowers in large trusses. Of same 
habit as the above and holds its foliage better 
than the Crimson Rambler. 50c
