HARDY JUNE ROSES —Continued 
Paul Neyron. H.P. Deep rose; very large, very full; somewhat 
fragrant; free-blooming; largest variety known; very desirable 
for the garden. 
Persian Yellow. A bright yellow; small, nearly full, well formed; 
small foliage; it is the finest of all hardy yellow Roses. 
Prince Camille de Rohan. H.P. Very deep velvety-crimson; 
large, moderately full. A good Rose of splendid color. 
Soleil d’Or. H.P. A valuable hybrid. It is one of the most valuable 
Roses on account of its remarkably distinct blooms, varying from 
gold and orange to reddish gold. 
Ulrich Brunner. H.P. Brilliant cherry-red, very effective in color; 
vigorous, hardy, resists mildew. One of the best for forcing and 
open-air culture. 
White Moss. M. Pure white; blooms in large clusters; very mossy 
bud. 
HARDY CLIMBING ROSES 
60c. each; 85.00per 10; $40.00 per 100 unless otherwise stated* 
We include under this head the various classes of hardy, vigorous 
growers, usually catalogued as climbers. 
Baltimore Belle. A fine old variety. Fine white with blush center; 
very full and double. 60c. 
Crimson Rambler. The foliage is rich, dark green; but its great 
beauty is when the plant is covered with a profusion of the brightest 
crimson, partly double flowers which remain on a long time. 60c.; 
extra heavy, 75c. 
Dorothy Perkins. This is a splendid new shell-pink climbing Rose. 
It has the same strong habit of growth as the Crimson Rambler, 
and the flowers are borne in clusters of thirty or forty; very double, 
and sweetly scented. 60c.; extra heavy, 75c. 
Dorothy Perkins Red (Excelsa). Very double crimson-maroon 
flowers in large trusses. Of same habit as the above. 75c. 
Hiawatha. Glowing ruby-crimson, single flowers, with petals shading 
to pure white at the base. This delightful new Rambler has 
evoked much favorable comment. 75c. 
Lady Gay. The flowers — in large, loose clusters — are of a delicate 
cherry-pink color, fading to soft tinted-white. The effect of a 
plant in full bloom is indeed charming. 60c. 
Pink Rambler (Euphrosyne). Possesses the same valuable features 
found in the White Rambler, from which it differs only in color 
of flower, which is a brilliant light carmine. 60c. 
'Queen of Prairie. Bright rose-color; large, compact and globular; 
a very profuse bloomer. One of the best. Foliage large and 
quite deeply serrated. 60c. 
Tausendschon. Very highly recommended, making growths in a 
season of over ten feet. It bears its flowers in immense clusters; 
in color a soft pink, changing to a carmine-rose on the reverse as 
they expand. 75c. 
White Rambler (Thalia). Flowers are the size of a silver quarter, 
perfectly filled, very fragrant; color pure white, sometimes tinged 
with blush. 60c. 
Yellow Rambler (Aglaia). Flowers medium size, cup-shaped, nearly 
full, sweet-scented; blooms in large clusters; color very light yellow, 
60c.
