CARILLON. Patent No. 136. A bedding rose 
of great activity, giving at all times a note of 
cheer in the garden. The long pointed buds are 
orange scarlet, contrasting pleasingly with the 
green sepals. The half open bloom is a deep 
coral, overcast with orange and the full bloom is 
large, four inches in diameter, the inner petals 
being irregularly but artistically arranged. The

the whole bed is blanketed with glossy foliage 
upon which rest the many blooms. Price, (only

CHATEAU DE CLOS VOUGEOT. Beautiful 
flowers of a brilliant scarlet, shaded fiery red and 
changing to dark velvety crimson as the blooms 
expand. Very double and intensely fragrant. 
CONDESSA DE SASTAGO. The bud is like a 
ball of gold with brilliant red stripes. When 
fully open the fiery red copper on the inside of 
the petals and rich gold on the reverse makes a 
breath-taking contrast. Here is a highly colored 
rose with an alluring, spicy scent. The plant 
is unusually strong and upright in growth with 
excellent foliage. 
COUNTESS VANDAL. Plant Patent No. 38. Is 
today the most popular rose in America as well 
as in Europe. The long, pointed bud, upright 
stems for cutting, a richer coloring and large 
rose differentiate it from Edith Nellie Perkins, 
also blooms more steadily. The color combination 
can hardly be described. An infusion of pink, 
copper, gold and salmon, producing a peculiar 
effect changing as the bloom ages. Price, (only 
first grade plants) $1.00 each; $10.00 per dozen. 
CYNTHIA. This variety is best described as 
an improved Charles P. Kilham. The attractive 
buds develop into splendid full flowers of a rich 
Oriental red color. Its free flowering habit and 
attractive color make it very desirable. 
DAILY MAIL SCENTED ROSE. This exceed¬ 
ingly fragrant rose is intense velvety crimson 
shaded with maroon and vermillion. The long, 
tightly rolled buds are exquisitely formed al¬ 
though they open rather quickly to an open flow¬ 
er of few petals, which keeps a long time when 
cut. It is a tall, vigorous grower, and produces 
richly scented flowers in profusion. 
DUQUESA DE PENARANDA. During the sum¬ 
mer the pointed buds are a blend of orange 
and dark pink, opening to splendid blooms 
of coppery apricot. In the fall great brownish 
buds open slowly to finely formed flowers, of a 
luscious cinnamon-peach shade. It is sweetly 
perfumed. Words cannot truly describe this 
beautiful rose of such an unusual color. 
EDITOR McFARLAND. We believe this to be 
the finest pink garden rose in the world today. 
Many perfectly formed, sparkling pink flowers 
are produced throughout the growing season. 
They come on nice long cutting stems, are fra¬ 
grant, and as cut-flowers, retain their form for 
a long while. The plants are as near Radiance in 
growth as any other rose. Exceptionally mer¬ 
itorious. 
j£_ GLOAMING. Patent No. 137. A cut flower va¬ 
riety also of great value to the garden. The 
large buds are carried on long rigid stems am¬ 
ply clothed with handsome foliage. The plant is 
vigorous and branching, fairly tall growing. The 
bloom is large and full, well formed and long 
lasting, either in water or on the plant. The 
color is a soft, satiny pink, heavily laden with 
salmon and amber. Delightful fragrance. Price, 
(only first grade plants) $1.50 each; $15.00 per 
dozen. 
GOLDEN CLIMBER. Plant Patent No. 28. The 
most interesting and unusual feature is that its 
extreme hardiness is combined with blooms of 
Hybrid Tea type and quality, long lasting and
