Deep Golden Yellow Roses from Early Spring 
UntU Late Fall 
This new rose has probably won more medals as an outdoor rose than any other variety. 
It is a glorious- sight from early summer until freezing weather, almost always a mass of 
bloom. Long, pointed buds of reddish gold, opening to beautifully cupped, very lasting, 
fragrant flowers of rich, deep golden yellow. The plant is of strong, vigorous, compact 
growth and many rose growers consider it the best yellow everblooming rose for the garden 
or lawn. We have no one-year-old plants of this variety, but can supply choice 2-year-old 
field grown plants at 75c each; 3 for $2.00, postpaid. 
CHARM (Gold Medal Rose) 
Charm is a wonderful new rose from Holland which was 
introduced by us last year. As a new rose, not yet in 
commerce, it was awarded the Gold Medal by the Royal 
Horticultural Society of the Netherlands. It is one of the 
finest hardy everblooming Hybrid-Tea Roses ever intro¬ 
duced. The brilliant flowers open as fine, long and 
pointed buds, are of unique durability, without any fad¬ 
ing of their charming color, and have a very sweet per¬ 
fume. When grown under glass, the color is a brilliant 
cherry red; as a garden rose it is bright, dark pink. It is 
an excellent variety for forcing as well as being unsur¬ 
passed as a hardy garden rose. The plant is strong and 
free-flowering, has very few thorns, is never subject to 
mildew, and the enormous flowers have not less than 80 
petals, and are carried quite erect on long stalks and rigid 
stems. Your rose garden will not be complete without 
one or more plants of Charm. We have no one-year-old 
plants of this variety to offer, but can supply choice 2- 
year-old field growm plants at $1.00 each ; 3 for $2.50, post¬ 
paid. 
OLYMPIAD A Beautiful Rose from France 
An outstanding rose of recent introduction brought to this country from France. The long 
pointed buds are fiery orange-scarlet opening to oriental scarlet with golden yellow at base. 
Fragrant blooms produced on long stems, holding their color well even in hot weather. A 
strong grower and free bloomer. We have no one-year-old plants of this variety, but can 
supply choice 2-year-old field grown plants, 75c each; 3 for $2.00. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
The Hybrid Perpetuals are hardier than the Hybrid Teas, and require but little care after once planted. Perhaps the most 
valuable of all hardy bushes for permanent planting, as they will succeed almost anywhere. Great numbers of people living in 
the Northern States think they cannot grow Roses on account of the severe winters, but Roses can be grown in any climate, pro¬ 
vided the right kinds are planted. We have listed below sturdy, vigorous kinds, suitable for the North. They thrive in all sections 
and bloom profusely and regularly at the usual time and intermittently throughout the summer months. 
AMERICAN BEAUTY. The famous rich glowing crimson Rose. 
GENERAL JACQUEMINOT. Brilliant, velvety crimson. 
JUBILEE. Deep velvety maroon-purple. Very large and free flowering.
