Fairfax Roses — The Aristocrats of Rosedom 
Hoosler Beauty 
TTnn«ipT Tipnntv ^ most brilliant crimson-scarlet Rose, with darker 
JTUtti. ILl JJcdUiy. shadings on the outer petals to almost black and a texture like 
velvet- The bud is of good length and opens into a magnificent bloom that is fairly 
dazzling. It is an unusually free and continuous bloomer, a very strong grower, and sends 
out stiff shoots with a bud on every one and stems two to three feet long. This Rose, with 
perhaps the exception of Mrs. Russell and Sunburst, attracts more attention from visitors 
than any other we have, and is easily the most brilliant of the scarlet-crimson Roses, a 
splendid garden variety. Price, 1-year plants, 50 cts. each ($5.00 per dozen) ; 2-year 
plants, $1.00 each ($10.00 per dozen) ; 3-year plants, $1.10 each ($12.00 per dozen). 
All our Rose plants are shipped with soil on the roots and are much more valuable than 
if shipped with the roots bare ; they are in condition to live, and start at once to grow. 
Our plants, too, are on their own roots, and will not worry you by throwing up shoots 
of wild growth from the roots as budded plants invariably do ; these wild shoots always 
take the strength from the improved bud and your plant is soon worthless.
