GLEN SAINT MARY NURSERIES * * * * * Roses 
BANKSIA ALBA. (Blc.) Same as the Yel- 
low Banksia, except that the flowers are white. 
BANKSIA LUTEA. (Bk.) Clusters of 
diminutive but exquisitely beautiful yellow flowers. 
The Banksia is entirely hardy in the South, where 
it is one of the most satisfactory climbers. It is as 
strong and rampant as the native Cherokee Rose, 
but does not throw up suckers from the roots like 
the latter; the foliage, which bears little resem¬ 
blance to that of other Roses, is striking and 
exceptionally handsome. In spring it is a mass of 
yellow bloom. 
BESSIE JOHNSON. (H. P.) Beautiful blush 
color, highly scented ; distinct. 
BLANCHE DE MEUR. (H. P.) Light flesh 
color, changing to white. 
BON SILENE. (T.) Deep salmon-rose, 
illumined with carmine; highly scented. Valu¬ 
able for its buds, which are large and of fine form 
and color. Very strong and robust in this section; 
bears profusely the year round. An old favorite 
variety. 
BOUGERE. (T.) Extra large, very double 
and full; exceedingly sweet Tea scent; color 
bronze-rose or violet-crimson, delicately shaded 
with lilac. Vigorous and a profuse and constant 
bloomer. An old Rose, but one of the most 
desirable. 
CAPTAIN CHRISTY. (H. T.) Extra large, 
flat flowers, very full and regular; the color is a 
lovely shade of pale peach, deepening toward the 
center to rosy crimson. Vigorous; a free and per¬ 
petual bloomer; one of the best in our gardens. 
CATHERINE MERMET. (T.) Very distinct 
and beautiful; valued highly for its elegant buds; 
color clear shining pink, with delicately shaded 
amber and fawn center; large, globular flowers; a 
strong, healthy grower and free bloomer. One of 
the most satisfactory. 
CECILE BRUNNER. (Pol.) Salmon-pink, 
with deep salmon center; an admirable Rose. 
CHARLES LEFEBVRE. (H. P.) Reddish 
crimson, sometimes with a shade of purple; very 
velvety and rich. Continues to bloom throughout 
the year; one of the most satisfactory of its class 
in tliis section. 
CHESHUNT HYBRID. (H.T.) Extra fine, 
large flowers, very double, full and of perfect 
form; delightfully fragrant; color ruby-crimson, 
passing to rich maroon ; a strong grower. 
CHROMATELLA (Cloth of Gold). (C. N.) 
Clear, bright yellow; good form and substance; 
large, very full and double; very sweet; a con¬ 
stant and profuse bloomer; much prized in the 
South as a pillar or veranda Rose. 
CLEMENT MESSIER. (C.N.) Mediumsize; 
full and double; white petals surrounding delicate 
pink center; very pretty in either bud or flower; 
sweet Tea scent; a strong grower. 
CLIMBING BRIDESMAID. (C. T.) Some¬ 
what similar to its parent Bridesmaid; dark pink, 
almost magenta-rose. Strong climber and a prom¬ 
ising variety. 
CLIMBING CLOTHILDESOUPERT. (C.T.) 
An offspring of Clothilde Soupert, of which it is 
an almost exact counterpart, except that it is a 
strong climber. Its introducers say that it is one 
of the most valuable, if not the most valuable, 
climbing Rose ever introduced. 
CLIMBING MARIE GUILLOT. (C. T.) A 
grand, new climbing Rose, differing from its par¬ 
ent, Marie Guillot, only in habit of growth. 
Beautiful creamy white flowers sometimes with 
pale yellow center. Strong grower and profuse 
bloomer. 
CLIMBING WHITE PET. (Mult.) Strong¬ 
growing Rose of the Rambler class; showy white 
flowers borne in clusters; fragrance like cherry 
blossoms. 
CLIMBING WOOTTON. (H.T.) Very large, 
rather open flowers, beautifully formed; color 
bright magenta-red, passing to violet-crimson, 
richly shaded. A free bloomer and strong grower. 
CLOTHILDESOUPERT (Pol.) This lovely 
Rose resembles the Tea Roses so closely that it is 
called a Tea Polyantha. The flowers are borne 
in clusters, and are of large, round, flat form, 
with beautifully imbricated petals; perfectly full 
and double, and deliciously sweet; color beautiful 
pinkish amber or pale, creamy yellow, delicately 
flushed with silvery rose, sometimes ivory-white, 
exquisitely tinted with pale salmon, and sometimes 
both red and white flowers are produced on the 
same plant. It is a particularly handsome Rose, 
and has always been greatly admired. The bush 
is a vigorous and compact grower and a contin¬ 
uous and remarkably profuse bloomer.

and flower.

white stripes in center of petals.

dium-sized white flowers tinged with blush.
