ROSES OF SPECIAL MERIT, continued 
*Souvenir de la Malmaison. One of the 
choicest Roses we offer and one that will 
give entire satisfaction for garden or pot 
culture. The color is creamy flesh, bright 
and clear. 
^Souvenir du President Carnot. The 
finest Rose presented to the public in 
many years. In beauty of form it is simply 
unsurpassed ; has the loveliest pink and 
white tints ever seen. 
Winnie Davis. The color is apricot- 
pink, shading to a flesh tint at base of 
petals; buds oblong and well formed when 
fully expanded, resembling a sunburst ; 
most peculiar and strikingly beautiful. Its 
habits are vigorous and robust ; very free- 
blooming, each eye producing flowers. 
Foliage leathery, reddish green, glossy and 
very large. It has also the disposition of 
throwing up vigorous shoots from the roots, 
producing three to eight blooms, its pecu- 
liar fragrance like luscious apricots. For 
the middle and southern states we claim the 
Winnie Davis to be an acquisition that is 
second to none introduced in recent years. 
*White Lady. One of the startling new 
Roses of recent date. It has gigantic flowers 
with enormous magnolia-like petals ; one of 
the handsomest and most effective of Roses, 
and very distinct. The color is white, deli- 
cately flushed with pale pink ; blooms are 
borne in great profusion on stiff stems, 
with heavy foliage. 
LA KRANCE ROSE 
*White Bougere. Free-blooming, clean and 
healthy in growth ; flowers pure white, of good 
substance, on good stiff stems; will produce 50 
per cent more blooms than Bride. 
*White Maman Cochet. This American sport 
of the grand French variety is very likely to prove 
the very best white bedder. 
Yellow Cochet (Madame Derepas Matrat). 
A pure Tea Rose, very free-growing and hardy 
in character. It throws up fine strong stems, 
crowned by solitary buds of grand size; the color 
is a good sulphur-yellow on first opening, chang- 
ing to a delightful rose-color as the flower gets 
age, when it takes on this rose shade. It can not 
be distinguished from White Maman Cochet. 
Will probably rank with the Cochets. Blooms 
very large, perfectly double, splendid form and 
freely produced. It has every quality necessary 
to make the ideal yellow bedder, ranking with the 
White and Pink Cochets in value as a summer 
Rose. 
FOUR LA FRANCE ROSES 
*Pink La France. The flowers are very large, 
double, delightfully fragrant; light silvery pink; 
blooms continuously throughout the season and 
stands first among the Roses for our climate. 
*White La France. Pearly white, shading to 
rose ; like La France in other characteristics. 
Red La France (Duchess of Albany). Retains 
all the characteristics of the type, with the blooms 
three to four shades darker, of a deep carmine- 
pink hue. 
*Striped La France. Beautifully variegated 
bright rose on a satin pink ground. 
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 
*General Jacqueminot. Rich velvety crimson ; 
magnificent in bud state or open. 
*Magna Charta. Pink, shading to carmine; 
very large and globular. Buds magnificent and 
produced in abundance. 
^Margaret Dickson. Flower very large ; white, 
with rose center; petals very large, shell-shaped, 
of heaviest texture. 
■*Mrs. John Laing. Queen of the Hybrid Per- 
petuals. Soft pink, with satin-like sheen. The 
flowers are large, finely shaped and exceedingly 
fragrant. 
*Paul Neyron. The largest-flowered Rose in 
cultivation, and one of the freest blooming; color 
deep clear rose ; very fresh and attractive ; an ex- 
ceptionally good grower, making straight shoots 
4. to 5 feet high in one season, each shoot tipped 
with an immense flower, often 5 inches in diam- 
eter. 
Wick’s Caprice. Soft, delicate pink, shaded 
carmine.
