Hardy Hybrid Perpetual Roses — Concluded 
PEINCE CAMILLE DE EOHAN 
Tliis Is a magnlflcent Rose, celebrated the world 
over for its large, handsome, fragrant flowers and the 
freedom with which they are produced. The color Is 
a deep, rich, velvety-crimson, passing to intense ma- 
roon, shaded black; at a short distance they appear 
really black. This is one of the most handsome Roses 
we have ever seen. 
FRAU KAEL DEUSCHKI 
This new hardy Rose is of Ger- 
man origin, and has won many 
prizes and made many friends. It 
is unquestionably the Ideal Hardy 
White Rose. Its flowers, which are 
very large, are perfect in form and 
snow-white in color, with large 
shell-shaped petals, forming a 
beautiful flower. The plant is a 
strong, vigorous, healthy grower 
and remarkably free-flowering. 
Price, 15 cents; three-inch, 25 
cents; two-year, 40 cents. 
J. B. CLARKE 
(H. P.) Without doubt the larg- 
est Rose ever grown. The growth 
is strong and upright, very vigor- 
ous, making a large, handsome 
bush; the foliage is broad and 
stout; bronzy-green in the young 
state, changing to dark green. The 
blooms are very large and beauti- 
fully formed; the petals, which are 
very smooth, are of great size and 
depth; flower very full and long, 
with high pointed center, color 
unique, being intense scarlet shad- 
ed crimson-maroon, very dark and 
rich, strongly fragrant. Seven and 
one-half inches in diameter by five 
inches deep. Dickson classes this 
Rose as a Hybrid Tea; we class it 
as a Hybrid Perpetual. Price, 20 
cents; three-inch, 30 cents; two- 
year. 50 cents. 
CONRAD F. MEYER 
(Rugosa Hybrid Rose.) 
A most valuable addition to the 
list of hardy free-blooming Roses. 
It surpasses all others of the type 
in fullness of flowers. The color is 
beautiful, a pure silvery-pink. It 
i.s of ironclad hardiness. Its beau- 
tiful foliage alone would recom- 
mend it as an ornamental shrub 
for the garden. For a flowering 
hedge It should eventually take 
front rank. The fragrance of the 
flowers is spicy and delightful. 
Price, 15 cents; three-inch, 25 cents; 
two-year-old, 40 cents. 
MAGNA CHAETA 
A splendid Rose; extra large, full 
flowers, very double; of fine form, 
and sweet; color, clear rosy-red. 
beautifully flushed with violet 
crimson; a sure and profuse bloom- 
er; one of the hardiest and best for 
general planting. 
MME. MASSON 
It may not be generally known among our customers 
that this is one of the really superb Roses, and fully 
the equal of any variety in this collection. We think 
it one of the very finest Roses in existence for garden 
cultivation; it is entirely hardy, blooms nearly all the 
time, bearing in profusion numbers of large, full, double 
flowers of unusual beauty and wonderful fragrance; 
color clear bright rose; distinct and charming. Price, 
15 cents; three-inch, 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents.
