OREGON GROWN ROSE BUSHES 
“THE WORLD’S BEST”—ALL TWO-YEAR FIELD GROWN, BUDDED AND POSTPAID 
Each 35c; 3 for $1.00; 12 for $3.00 
American Beauty (H. P.)—One of the largest, sweet¬ 
est and best; rich, rosy crimson, shaded and veined in 
a most charming manner. 
Angele Pernet (Pernet)—A really enchanting color. 
The lovely cupped blooms of brownish orange-red, 
are edged with chrome-yellow, with golden yellow 
outside petals. In the autumn the flowers last longer, 
and have better coloring ; very brilliant and attractive, 
especially in the morning. Makes a bushy, upright 
growth and blooms freely. 
Aspirant Marcel Rouyer—Long shapely bud that 
develops in a good sized, substantial double flower with 
heavy shell-like petals. Color, deep apricot, tinted red 
at center, reverse of petals shaded salmon-flesh with 
deep yellow veinings at the base. 
Augustus Hartman (H. T.)—Brilliant red flushed 
with orange. Very large well formed flowers with high 
pointed center. 
Austrian Copper (Rosa foetida bicolor)—Species. 
Rather more slender in growth than most of this 
group, reaching 4 to 5 feet. The wiry stems are covered 
in early summer with garlands of single flowers, vivid 
copper-red on the inner surface of the petals and 
bright yellow on the outside. Spectacular and of great 
interest. 
Autumn (H. T.)—For intense richness of color, this 
rose outdoes any other variety now in cultivation. The 
full handsome buds are a superb shade of burnt- 
orange, and the opening flowers are heavily suffused 
with russet-brown and bronzy red all overlaid on a 
background of rich yellow in a color combination 
reminiscent of the most glorious autumnal foliage. 
The bush is a good grower, and the foliage is heavily 
textured and healthy. It would be difficult to give a 
description of the colors in this rose which would 
exaggerate. 
Betty (H. T.) —Beautiful coppery-rose color, over¬ 
spread with golden-yellow; fragrant. 
Briarcliffe (H. T.) —A fine rose of the Columbia 
type, producing large, longer buds than that favorite 
and has large, high pointed, double, very lasting, mod¬ 
erately fragrant flowers of a brilliant rose-pink at 
center, shading lighter at outer petals. One of the 
very good garden roses. 
Cecil (H. T.)—A wonderfully decorative, new, single 
rose with good-sized five-petaled flowers of a glorious 
buttercup yellow. There is no other variety anything 
like it. It blooms continuously on a large, densely- 
branched bush with glossy green, mildew-proof foliage. 
Cuba (H. T.)—As a bedding rose for brilliant mass 
effect we know of nothing that will equal this French 
introduction and although the flowers are semi-double, 
they possess a charm and brilliancy in color which is 
an entirely new tone in roses, a glorious bright ver¬ 
milion-scarlet overlying an orange ground. This 
color combination is so intense that in full sunlight 
it glistens with an iridescent sparkle. A vigorous 
grower with dark green foliage which makes a splen¬ 
did foil for the masses of richly colored blooms that 
it produces form spring to late fall. 
Chateau de Clos Vougeot (H. T.)—A very rich, fiery 
scarlet shading to deep velvety crimson. It is delight- 
ully fragrant, a prolific and continuous bloomer. 
Cheerful (H. T.)—Large, full flowers of perfect 
shape and form, with enormous individual petals and 
grand general character. Color, rich orange flame over¬ 
spreading the petals to a distinct orange yellow base. 
Columbia (H. T.)—This beautiful rose is of strong, 
vigorous habit of growth and exceptionally free-bloom¬ 
ing. The flowers, which are of good size, are perfect 
in form, both in bud as well as when fully expanded. 
In color it is a most pleasing shade of rose-pink and 
delightfully fragrant. 
Conrad F. Meyer—A most valuable addition to the 
list of hardy fee-blooming roses. The color is a beau¬ 
tiful pure silvery pink. It is of ironclad hardiness. 
Constance (H. T.)—Rich orange yellow, distinctly 
streaked and splashed with crimson, long pointed buds ; 
free bloomer. 
Countess Clanwilliam (H. T.)—A distinct and 
charming rose, producing flowers in great abundance. 
Color delicate peach pink, petals flamed and edged 
with deep cherry red. Long pointed buds opening to 
large full flowers. Of strong, vigorous habit. 
Crimson Emblem 
(H. T.)—A 
superb new Irish 
rose of a rich 
and glorious 
crimson color 
heavily shaded 
maroon. Buds 
and flowers of 
superb form, of 
fine size and 
produced on fine 
long stems, 
admirably 
adapted for 
cutting. 
Wonderful 
mildew-proof 
foliage. 
Dainty Bess—The finest single rose introduced in 
years. The five-petaled flowers are born in clusters 
of three and are delicate pink in color, with a brown¬ 
ish-red overcast, and a contrasting center of wine-red 
stamens, the bush is strong, tall and vigorous. 
Dame Edith Helen—A magnificent, fragrant, full- 
bodied new rose of many substantial petals which curl 
back prettily, holding steadily to one vivid pink color, 
and that the rare Rose du Barri shade. 
Doris Dickson—Exquisitely formed medium-sized 
flowers, the base color of which is orange cream, but 
so heavily veined and pencilled with deep brilliant 
cherry that it is impossible to adequately describe the 
unique coloring. Growth vigorous, very free flowering, 
and extremely fragrant. A variety that is sure to be¬ 
come a favorite. 
Dorothy Page Roberts (H. T.)—Coppery pink, suf¬ 
fused with apricot yellow, very free and perpetual, a 
delightful garden rose. 
Duchess of Atholl (H. T.)—Uncommon and delight¬ 
ful in color, large globular bud of deep bronzy orange; 
large double flower of cupped form ; intensely fra¬ 
grant ; vivid orange, flushed old-rose; vigorous and 
free flowering. 
Duchess of Wellington (H. T.)—Intense saffron yel¬ 
low stained with rich crimson which as the flower 
develops, becomes deep coppery saffron yellow. De¬ 
lightfully fragrant. 
Earl Haig—A type rare among red roses, and so of 
obvious interest to the selective buyer. Outside of its 
fragrance, freedom and unfading cherry-crimson color, 
the thick rolling petalage, and permanent high-built 
center, fix its superiority over less compact varieties.

ABBREVIATIONS 
X.—TEA—One of the best classes of Roses and truly 
ever blooming. They are hardy in this section, although 
during our coolest weather and in cold sections they 
should be protected with a covering of fir boughs, straw 
or burlap. 
H. T.—HYBRID TEA—Most of these are as free 
flowering and as constant bloomers as the teas, and 
are hardier, stronger growers. 
H. P.—HYBRID PERPETUAL—The hardiest of all 
roses, vigorous in growth, free blooming. 
Mildew—This is a flour-like substance that appears 
upon the foliage of Roses caused by too much damp¬ 
ness. Not especially injurious and can be eradicated by 
sprinkling foliage, when wet, with ordinary sulphur 
flour.
