Hardy Roses

EVERBLOOMING BEDDING ROSES 
Of late great attention has been given to the Rose by all the leading rosarians in both Europe and 
America. As a result a class of ever-blooming Roses has been developed that are valuable. 
Heretofore we have had Roses that gave an abundance of blossoms in June and a few at intervals 
throughout the season. Now it is possible to have an abundance m July, August and September as well as 
in June. 
There are hundreds of these varieties, such as Kaiserin Augusta Victoria and Gruss an Tephtz, al- 
ready quite generally and favorably known. Some of these sorts like all hybrids have a delicious perfume 
while some are odorless. From this long list we have selected about fifty sorts which we are having grown 
for us, and which will be ready for delivery after January 1, 1915. 
Of this list such sorts as are marked with a star (*) we can deliver now. 
We recommend our patrons— and we cannot do it too strongly— to try these few sorts that we now 
offer, then they will be prepared to judge intelligently of their worth and to order more largely the following 
seasons. „
