Antoine Rivoire. H. T. It is a vigorous 
grower, with fine-shaped buds and flowers, 
color salmon-flesh in center to the edge of its 
petals, shading to a creamy white, with a 
delicate pink tinge. 
White La France (Augustine Guinoisseau) 
H. T. Here we have a beauty indeed, one 
we recommend to all, whether for outdoor 
culture or for pots in the house in winter. If 
you were to ask us to select six of the very 
finest Roses for you we would be sure to 
include it in the six. It is identical with La 
France, except the color. It is pearly white, 
sometimes tinted with fawn. 
Catherine Mermet. Tea. A beautiful, 
clear, rich color, with the same silvery luster 
seen in La France. Large, well-formed; 
very beautiful in bud. One of the most 
popular Roses for cut-flowers. 
Helen Gambler. H. T. Deep orange- 
yellow, shading to coppery yellow and then 
to almost white on the outside row of petals. 
Fragrance as strong and penetrating as a 
Sweetbriar. Very distinct and beautiful. 
Souvenir de la Malmaison. China. 
Blooms well in hot weather. Its rich, flesh- 
colored flowers are of large size, double to the 
center, are produced in abundance. 
hfadame Jules Grolez. Called by some 
“Red Kaiserin." One of the brightest and 
most pleasing Roses we have ever seen. An 
exceedingly free-blooming variety, with very 
large, bright, finely formed flowers. Color 
a distinct and charming shade of cherry-red. 
Meteor. H. T. A velvety red everbloom- 
ing Rose, of the deepest glowing crimson. 
As fine as a Hybrid; flower of medium size, 
very double, and petals slightly recurving. 
A beautiful open Rose, a free-bloomer, and 
promising well as a pot Rose. It promises to 
be a reliable everblooming Rose. 
Winnie Davis. H. T. The color is apricot- 
pink, shading to a flesh tint at the base of 
petals; buds oblong and well formed. Vig- 
orous and robust, free-blooming; foliage 
leathery, reddish green, glossy and very large. 
For the Middle and Southern states we claim 
Price of above, 
EVERBLOOMING ROSES, continued 
the Winnie Davis to be an acquisition second 
to none introduced in recent years. 
Aurora. H.T. Vigorous growth; splendid 
foliage, free from disease. Grand flowers, 
large, full and “crimped.’’ Center rich, bright 
pink, pale on the outside. Petals finely formed; 
flower of splendid shape. A wonderful bloomer. 
Souv. du President Carnot. H. T. The 
flowers are large, full and double, exquisitely 
shaped, with heavy, thick, shell-like petals. 
The buds are wonderfully beautiful — long and 
pointed — perfection in every line. The color 
is delicate rosy blush, shaded a trifle deeper 
at center of flower. Fragrance delicious. 
Strong grower and free bloomer. 
Souv. de Pierre Netting. This beautiful 
new Tea Rose is an introduction of one of 
the foremost firms of France, and has not 
been exceeded in merit by any Rose yet 
sent out from that country. Blooms very 
large, well filled and open easily; beautiful 
elongated bud. Color apricot-yellow tinged 
with golden; mixed with orange-yellow, edge 
of petals shaded beautiful carmine-rose; open 
flower is full and double and of good sub- 
stance. Extremely free and one of the most 
beautiful blooms grown. 
Gene ral McArthur, 
the brightest vivid crimson-scarlet Roses in 
existence. Of free branching habit of growth; 
very vigorous and healthy. Every shoot 
produces a large, double, well-formed flower, 
which, combined with its fragrance and hardi- 
ness, makes this essentially one of the greatest 
red Roses for outdoor planting. The frag- 
rance cannot be excelled by any Rose in ex- 
istence. Very strong, yet delicate and entirely 
distinct, being different from any other. 
Marigold. Beautiful yellow Tea Rose, 
with dark feathery foliage, resembles Kai- 
serin in growth and bloom. 
Perle von Godesburg. H. T. Sent out 
from Germany as a yellow Kaiserin Augusta 
Victoria. It is a splendid Rose and well 
worthy of a trial. The color is rich canary- 
yellow, with light saffron shadings, 
strong mailing size, i-yr.-old from 3-in. pots, 10 cts. each; 2-yr.-old 
plants, 25 cts.
