^GAINSBOROUGH. T Iie best of ftl1 climbing Roses. We are very proud to bring this 
; line Rose to the notice of all rosarians, be they amateur or profes- 
sional. We are fully convinced that for a hardy everblooming climber it has no equal, even 
eclipsing that grand variety, Mrs. Robert Peary. For beauty and size we place this variety 
at the head of the Hybrid Teas. The foliage is an exact counterpart of its parent, Viscountess 
Folkestone. Its delicate colors are hard to describe, being delicately tinted flesh, almost 
white, and lustrous as satin ; when in full bloom it resembles a large, fine, white, fluffy 
peony, but without a suggestion of stiffness, often measuring 8 to 9 inches in diameter. An 
enthusiastic admirer describes it as a Rose reminding him of a beautiful girl wearing a light 
colored Gainsborough hat, ornamented with white ostrich plumes. Hence the suggestion of 
its name. Be sure and try this grand Rose. 15 cts. each. 
* WINNIE DAVIS (The Daughter of the Confederacy). This excellent Rose was 
— — — ; — — — raised from seed, being a 
cross between the famous Empress Augusta Victoria and the well-known Belle Siebrecbt. 
The color is apricot-pink, 
shading to a flesh tint at 
base of petals; buds oblong 
and well formed, when fully 
expanded resembling a sun- 
burst; most peculiar, and 
strikingly beautiful. its 
habits are vigorous and ro- 
bust; very free-blooming, 
each eye producing flowers. 
Foliage leathery, reddish 
green, glossy and very 
large, it also has the dis- 
position of throwing up 
vigorous shoots from the 
roots, producing three to 
eight blooms, its peculiar 
fragrance like luscious apri- 
cots. For the middle and 
southern states we claim 
the Winnie Davis to he an 
acquisition that is second to 
none introduced in recent 
years.
