RED-LETTER DAY 
DECORATIVE 
An exceedingly beautiful, semi-double Rose, of 
infinite grace and charm. Its velvety, brilliant, 
glowing scarlet-crimson buds and fully opened cactus¬ 
like flowers never fade, as the reflex of the petals is 
satiny crimson-scarlet, colorings devoid of blue or 
magenta. Its refined, vigorous, erect growth, with 
dark, glaucous sage-green foliage is festooned with 
delightful blooms throughout the entire flowering 
season. It is an ideal decorative and bedding Rose, 
combining in a marked degree all the essentials 
required in such. Wherever exhibited it has invari¬ 
ably commanded unparalleled admiration, and was 
always a center of attraction, while visitors to our 
gardens were lavish in their laudations. It is cer¬ 
tainly one of the most attractively charming, decora¬ 
tive and bedding Roses we have yet raised, or has 
yet been distributed. Awarded Gold and Silver 
Gilt Medals, N.R.S. $1.25 each.

RAMBLER ROSES 
WALSH’S NEW SEEDLING 
’AMERICA’’ 
This new Rose combines the good qualities of the 
Ramblers, to which class it belongs, with the charm 
and beauty of the wild Roses. The flowers are a deli¬ 
cate pink, shading to white at the center of the petals, 
with prominent yellow stamens. The blooms arc borne 
in large clusters, as many as seventy-five single speci¬ 
mens having been found in one cluster. The flowers 
remain in good condition for almost three weeks—a 
great advantage over some of the Ramblers. When in 
full bloom a plant resembles a huge bouquet of pink 
Roses. The growth of the plant is remarkably vigorous, 
the shoots soon covering an arch or trellis with a dense 
mass of ivy-like, dark green foliage that resists attacks 
of mildew and insects. 
The plants are perfectly hardy, and can be put in 
the most exposed places with an assurance that they 
will grow and produce an abundance of flowers 
Strong plants, $2 each.
