Countess Vandal. Plant Patent No. 38. A 
sensational Rose which has proved an exception¬

copper-salmon and bronze, and large, fragrant 
flowers of rose, salmon, and coppery gold. $1.50.

yellow, stained with scarlet and apricot on the 
outside of the petals, opening to bright yellow 
flowers with bronzy tints. A good grower, with 
glossy foliage. $1.00.

ovoid buds unfold a rich coral-scarlet overlying 
deep old-gold, passing to pretty coral-rose with 
satiny gold suffusion. $1.50.

Etoile de Hollande, but more double and fra¬ 
grant. A vigorous grower. $1.00.

zinnia—coppery vermilion with a golden suf¬ 
fusion. The buds are of ideal form, and the 
fragrant flowers are freely produced on long, 
wiry stems with rich green, glossy foliage. $1.50.

combination. $1.50.

Red Hoover. A lovely sport of one of the 
most popular Roses ever produced because of its 
freedom of bloom, perfection of flower, excep¬

blossoms come on such long stems. In this new 
form the red tones are predominant. $1.50.

form of this most popular variety. $1.00.
