Pink Baby Rambler Rose 
This is a cross between “Crimson Rambler” and “George 
Fernet,” growing 18 in. high and resembling in general habit 
the now so well-known Crimson Baby Rambler. The flow¬ 
ers are also produced continually in the same profusion and 
are of a brilliant rose color. It is a true everbloomer and 
exceedingly useful for either pots or the open ground. 25 
cts. each. 
New Climbing Rose 
Lady Gay 
In this latest introduction we have a seedling of the Crimson 
Rambler that marks the highest perfection of hardy pink climb¬ 
ing roses. It is of a different growth and a distinctly different 
shade of pink from the “Dorothy Perkins,” which it resembles 
only in being a pink climber. We feel justified in strongly 
recommending this variety, feeling confident it will give entire 
satisfaction. 35 cts. each. 
Crimson Baby Rambler 
Rose 
A direct descendant and of the some color as that grand old 
favorite “Crimson Rambler,” this popular pet attains a height of 
but twenty inches when fully grown. From the time that it is 
in the cutting bench, the tiny plant commences to bloom, and 
there is not a day in the year when it will not produce with won¬ 
derful freedom flowers fully the equal, if not the superior, of 
Crimson Rambler in large panicles, many of them having over a 
hundred blooms in a cluster. Strong plants, 25 cts. each ; extra 
strong size, 40 cts. each; large field grown plants, 75 cts. each. 
Mailed at these prices. 
Phoenix Roebelini 
The newest and in 
every respect the finest 
and most beautiful palm 
grown. It has the grace¬ 
ful and beautiful foliage 
of Cocos Weddeliana, 
but ten times as much 
of it, and it is the hardi¬ 
est and most easily 
grown of all palms, and 
just the one that will 
succeed admirably in 
any window. Nothing 
can surpass it as a dec¬ 
orative plant. Strong 
well-rooted plants, 3 to 
4 leaves, 8 to 10 ins. 
high, by mail, 50 cts. 
each; larger plants 4 
in. pots, by express 
only $3.00 each. 
Salvia Splendens Com- 
pacta “Zurich” 
This new variety originated with the park department of 
Zurich, Switzerland, and received many flattering notices dur¬ 
ing the past summer. It is of the dwarfest habit, never exceed¬ 
ing 18 inches in height, and produces its flowers of the brightest 
scarlet in great profusion. A grower who tested “Zurich” 
alongside of “Ball of Fire,” the dwarfest variety known, declares 
Zurich to be far superior in every respect, plants 4 inches high 
being literally covered with flowers, like a Gloire de Lorraine 
Begonia. Pkt. 25 cts., plants 15 cts. each, $1.50 per dozen. 
Ready in April-
