BEDDING ROSE 
It is impossible in a printed description to give 
any adequate idea of the magnificent beauty of 
this rose, when used as a bedding rose. It is the 
richest of all red roses and for the amateur who 
is without a greenhouse, it is one of the most 
desirable varieties introduced. The foliage is ex¬ 
ceedingly beautiful, the young growth being of a 
dark, rich bronze color. The flower, in color, is a 
dark, rich scarlet, shading into a velvety crimson 
as the flowers mature. Larger than Hermosa; 
very fragrant; strong grower, and blooms pro¬ 
fusely. When planted in beds it creates a sheet 
of the richest crimson scarlet all summer. We 
offer 2-year-old, field-grown, blooming plants, 40 
i cts. each; $3.50 per doz.; $25 per 100.
