peach pink, it stands distinct from all others. Its buds are of excellent form, 
supported by a strong growing vigorous plant. 
This is certainly a variety of great merit and should not be overlooked when 
planting a rose garden. 
Frau Karl Druschki or Snow Queen J h!s variety was introduced 
from Europe and has become 
(Hybrid Tea) the favorite among white roses. 
Without a doubt it is the best of all white varieties not being marred with a 
tinge of cream as are most all other white varieties. 
The buds are long, bursting forth into unusual large flowers that know no 
equal in beauty. They are of delightful fragrance supported by strong vig¬ 
orous canes and are especially adapted for cutting. The bush is very hardy 
having an abundance of thick leathery foliage. 
We cannot recommend this variety too highly as we know of no other 
white bush rose of as excellent quality. 
General Jacqueminot ^ s extensively grown in France being one of the 
^ favorites. Since introduced into this country it has 
(Hybrid Perpetual) gained many admirers. This is not to be won¬ 
dered at as its rich bright crimson color makes it very attractive. 
The flowers are large in size, full, of sweetest fragrance, supported by long 
slender stems seemingly waving defiance at its fellow neighbors. The bush 
is of hardiest nature with foliage of splendid beauty. This rose, with its 
long willowy stems, and handsome foliage make it one of the best for bou¬ 
quets, etc. 
General McArthur Since introduced, by Hill, in 1905, has steadily in¬ 
creased in popularity until it is now one of the most 
(Hybrid Tea) popular of the crimson roses. 
The buds, at their first opening, are of a flaring crimson, retaining this 
color throughout its blooming season. The flowers are of large size, full and 
highly fragrant. The bush is a hardy grower with an abundance of beautiful 
foliage. 
The color contrast offered by this variety is indeed a wonderful sight and 
we recommend it as unexcelled for planting in the garden or around the home. 
Gold of Ophir 
(Noisette) 
This rose was introduced by Goubalt. in 1844. and is 
sometimes known as Ophirie. Regardless of what you 
may have planted, in roses, in your garden or home 
grounds your assortment is not complete without a plant or more of this 
variety. 
Its habit of growth and color of flower is entirely different from that of 
any other rose. The plant is a strong vigorous climber, supporting an abund¬ 
ance of flowers of clustering habit. The flowers are of medium size, cupped, 
double and very fragrant. Possibly the most attractive feature of this rose is 
its unique color of coppery red overspread with a tinge of fawn and salmon 
on the outer edge. 
GrilSS an Teplitz while it is generally classed under, bush varieties it is 
^ very often used as a climber due to its very strong 
(Bourbon) vigorous habit of growth. It is held in high esteem, by 
florists, on accounts of the freedom with which it blooms from early June 
until the frosts put in an appearance. 
The buds are of excellent form and upon first opening are of a dark crim¬ 
son color but later change to a most beautiful fierv red when flowers are in 
full bloom. The flowers are of good size and highly fragrant. 
We feel that those wishing to plant a red rose for decorative purposes, 
around the home, or for making bouquets, etc., will make no mistake in select¬ 
ing this variety.

of its class. Unlike most other roses it is of light delicate carmine in the 
center gradually deepening toward the edges. 
This plant sends out strong shoots of great vigor and thrives in most all 
parts of this country.
