FAIRFAX ROSES — THE ARISTOCRATS OF ROSEDOM 
tinged with the old-tashioned musky 
flavor so much admired in olden times. 
My stock is propagated direct from the 
old plant at Mount Vernon, which is 
famous as having been planted by 
George Washington and named in 
honor of his mother. It is still a strong, 
vigorous bush, blooming profusely and 
demonstrating that the soil and climate 
of Fairfax are especially adapted to 
Rose-growing. Price, strong mailing 
size, from 3-inch pots, 10 cts.; fine 
2-year plants, 30 cts. 
Marechal Niel. World-renowned yellow Rose 
Climbing Roses, continued 
Gloire de Dijon. Amber. This mag- 
nificent Rose is always scarce and difficult 
to obtain true. The flowers are large, per- 
fectly double and delightfully tea-scented; 
color rich, creamy amber, tinted with 
blush. One of the most beautiful Roses. 
Price, strong mailing-size plants, 15 cts.; 
2-year plants, 40 cts. 
Marechal Niel. Yellow. The world- 
renowned Rose. A beautiful, deep sulphur- 
yellow; very full, large and exceedingly 
fragrant. It has a climbing habit, and in a 
few years will attain a large size, yielding 
thousands of beautiful golden yellow 
flowers. Especially desirable in the South. 
Price, mailing size, from 3-inch pots, 10 
cts.; fine 2-year plants that made 4 to 6 
feet of growth last summer, 35 cts. 
Mary Washington. White. Flowers 
are of medium size, pure white, sweet, 
perfectly double to the center, and borne 
in endless numbers in large clusters all 
summer. Vigorous and rapid grower. 
One plant of Mary Washington will 
produce more flowers and buds than a 
dozen ordinarv Roses. Its fragrance is 
Mrs. Robert Peary 
White. This is, without doubt, the 
grandest of all white climbing Roses. It is 
the first and only white, hardy, everbloom- 
ing climbing Rose, and, as such, fills a de- 
mand that has never before been supplied. 
Small plants bloom continually the first 
season, just as the parent, Kaiserin 
Augusta Victoria, does. The flowers are 
extra large, full, deep and double, and are 
produced on long, stiff stems like a forcing 
or cut-flower Rose. The buds arc long 
and pointed, exquisitely modeled and 
gracefully finished. Both in bud and 
flower it is truly beautiful. Always a 
wonderfully vigorous grower and very 
hardy. Price, strong mailing-size plants, 
10 cts.; fine 2-year plants, 30 cts.; extra- 
fine 3-year plants, 50 cts. 
Reve d’Or (Golden Chain, or Climbing 
Safrano). Yellow. A beautiful pillar 
Rose. Color orange-yellow or deep saf- 
fron; good size, full and sweet. I have a 
fine stock of this Rose, and recommend 
it highly. Price, strong mailing size, from 
3-inch pots, loc.; fine 2-year plants, 25c. 
White Microphylla. Flowers purest 
white, double, sweet . Price, mailing size, 
10 cts.; strong 2-ycar plants, 25 cts.
