Hardy, Continuous- Blooming Baby Rambler Roses 
FOR PERMANENTLY EDGING WALKS OR FLOWER-BEDS 
These perfectly hardy, continuous-blooming, dwarf-growing Roses have won for themselves a conspicuous 
place with rosarians. They bloom from June till frost and keep color in your garden or on your lawn even 
during the hottest days in summer, when other Roses are gone. Use them generously for planting along 
walks, for dividing-lines where a tall hedge is not needed, and for solid beds. They bloom as freely as 
geraniums and, being perfectly hardy, their first cost is the only cost. 
Price, 2-yr. field-grown plants, 50 cts. each, $5 per doz. □ 
ORLEANS. Color is brilliant geranium-red, suf¬ 
fused with rose, with a center of white. The 
effect is brilliant pink, which changes to a lighter 
pink as the flower ages. The flowers come in 
masses of thirty to fifty on a stem and keep up a 
continual show of color, even during the hottest 
weather. One of the most satisfactory Roses for 
edging. Awarded a Gold Medal. 
A solid bed of White Baby Ramblers is very effective
