Saint Mary Nurseries 
Roses 
WHITE ROSES, continued 
Marie Lambert. (T.) White; beautifully 
formed buds; sweet-scented; vigorous. A free 
and constant bloomer; one of the best for early 
spring flowers. The bush grows to a large size, 
with handsome, dark green foliage. 
Marie Van Houtte. (T.) White, with lemon 
tint, pink on outer petals; buds of good size; 
flowers turning pink as they fade; good bloomer; 
thrifty grower; leaves large and shining. A very 
handsome and desirable Rose. (See illustration 
on page 46.) 
Queen. (T.) Pure white, with globular buds, 
and good double flowers produced in clusters of 
three to fifteen; one of our best white Roses. 
Very free-flowering and vigorous. 
White Killarney. (H. R.) This form of the 
famous Killarney Rose has the fine, large buds 
and beautiful flowers of the original variety; a 
strong-growing, profuse-blooming Rose; white, 
tinted pink on the outer petals. 
White Maman Cochet. (T.) Pure 
white, or white with very slight, deli¬ 
cate pink tint on the outer petals; full- 
double, beautiful, pointed buds with 
regular, shell-like petals. A profuse 
bloomer and strong, vigorous grower. 
We can strongly recommend it as one 
of our best Roses. 
White Perle des Jardins. (T.) 
White, lemon-tinted in center; open 
flowers have petals turned back along 
edges, giving them a pointed appear¬ 
ance. Strong grower and one of the 
most distinct and desirable white 
Roses. 
Lamarque. (C. N.) White, with 
sulphur center. Constant bloomer. 
Very satisfactory. 
Etoile de Lyon. (T.) Deep yellow, with good 
buds and large double flowers. It blooms pro 
fusely and is a strong grower. Desirable yellow 
bush Rose. 
Gloire Lyonnaise. (H. P.) Light salmon- 
yellow, sometimes creamy white. A large- 
flowered variety and very desirable. A fine 
Rose. 
Isabella Sprunt. (T.) Lemon-yellow; buds 
like Safrano; fine bloomer; a very desirable va¬ 
riety; strong grower. There are not many really 
good yellow Roses for the lower South. We can 
recommend this one. The flowers open well. It 
gives satisfaction on light soils and is finer still 
on good Rose land. Originated in eastern North 
Carolina. 
Letty Coles. (T.) The beautiful blush- 
colored flowers, are sometimes tinged with 
pale yellow; they are medium to large in size 
and of fine form; a strong vigorous grower; 
sweet tea fragrance. 
Yellow and Salmon 
Roses 
Chromatella. (C. N.) Lemon-yel¬ 
low; long-pointed buds; very vigorous 
and free blooming. An old and desira¬ 
ble sort. 
Climbing Perle des Jardins. (C. 
T.) For many years we tried to grow 
that fine yellow Rose, Perle des Jar¬ 
dins, and failed. The climbing variety, 
however, is a profuse bloomer, with 
deep yellow, well-formed buds and 
flowers,—a wonderful Rose. It is a 
stronger grower than Marechal Niel 
and by many regarded as a more satis 
factory Rose.
