ROSES 
After years of experimenting we are now handling roses (except part of the climbers)* 
which are imported direct from Holland. They are superior to those produced by the 
growers of roses in this country because they have vastly better roots and better tops. 
NEW AND RECENT INTRODUCTIONS 
Flower of Fairfield (New) — The really ever-blooming Crimson Rambler long sought by 
rose-growers. It carries the crimson splendor of the type from spring even into 
November; commencing to bloom on the first young, red shoots and adding size and 
brilliancy with its growth of an important acquisition. 
Miss G. Mesman — Climbing Baby Rambler — A sport of Baby Rambler. Very vigorous 
grower and has retained all the qualities of the original Baby. 
Vielchenblau— The Blue Rambler — (New). A strong growing sort said to produce 
flowers in clusters like the Crimson Rambler but of a blue color. The nearest approach 
to a blue rose ever introduced. 
Baby Rambler — A dwarf (bush, not climb¬ 
ing) form of Crimson Rambler, and fur¬ 
thermore, ever-blooming. Will bloom 
continuously throughout the summer if 
planted out of doors. Has the same 
bright crimson color as the Climbing 
Crimson Rambler, and blooms in clus¬ 
ters of 20 to 40 flowers at one time on 
plants of fair size. It is one of the best 
red roses for bedding and is going to be 
just as popular and as extensively plant¬ 
ed as the climbing form has been. May 
be grown in pots and bloom with ordi¬ 
nary treatment from one year’s end to 
another. The best rose novelty of re¬ 
cent years. It is perfectly hardy. 
Frau Karl Druschki — The white American 
beauty. A new white hybrid perpetual 
rose. This is an ideal hardy white rose, 
a healthy, vigorous grower, large, per¬ 
fect in form, snow-white in color, very 
free flowering. Large field grown plants. 
Soliel d* Or (Golden Sun) — The most 
unique Rose in cultivation, being the 
first of a new race. A strong, robust 
grower, with straight branches, and 
heavy, deep green foliage. The color of 
a fully expanded flower is extraordinary 
and is not found in any other variety in cultivation — a blending of reddish-gold, 
orange-yellow, forming a combination that is well described when the rose was named 
golden sun, and no description can do justice to the peerless beauty of this wonderful, 
new, hardy yellow Rose. It will prove hardy in all sections of the country. Wher¬ 
ever shown this Rose has won all first prizes. It has but one drawback to the pro¬ 
pagator’s mind, and that is that it does not succeed well on its own roots, and we, 
therefore offer it in strong, low-budded plants, two-year old stock only.

HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 
With the care noted above these roses will produce a succession of bloom from June 
till frost, produce new wood constantly and the bloom is assured. They are perfectly 
hardy and will endure the winter unprotected; but will produce a greater abundance of 
early flowers if somewhat protected. They should be severely pruned in the spring before 
the buds start. 
Alfred Colomb—Bright carmine red; clear color, large, deeply built form; exceedingly fine.
