of enormous size, very full, and of great depth

fragrant, hardy and produces flowers con¬ 
tinuously from June until frost. 
WM. R. SMITH. The petals are so firm they look like 
wax, softly curled; colored cream with flesh-tint tips, 
buff-yellow base and the center a heart of pink. Perfect 
buds. This variety is splendid as a fall bloomer, when it 
produces its most exquisite blooms.

yellow, which intensifies as the blooms develop;

mation; it has a high-pointed center from which 
the petals gracefully reflex. Gold Medal, N.R.S. 
BABY DOLL (Tip-Top). This is one of the daintiest 
little Roses we offer. The petite buds are yellow 
but the flowers open into a bewitching combina¬ 
tion of rose-tipped petals with light yellow heart. 
Universally admired and different from any other 
variety. 
CLOTILDE SOUPERT. Beautiful creamy white, 
deepening at center to a clear bright pink. A 
deliciously fragrant Rose and one that blooms 
beautifully indoors. 
COL. R. S. WILLIAMSON. Very large blooms; 
satiny white with deep blush center. A handsome, 
free-blooming Rose that responds quickly to care 
and proper cultivation. It should be well ferti¬ 
lized to get good results.

with beautiful, clear pink flowers delicately 
shaded. Very satisfactory for growing indoors.

bright golden yellow. The flower is beautifully 
formed, deliciously sweet, and the buds are espe¬ 
cially attractive.

Rose with most exquisite buds and deliciously 
fragrant, fully double flowers. Color is reddish 
apricot passing to deep coppery red with orange 
shadings, difficult to describe. 
MME. EUGENE MARLITT. Very satisfactory for 
growing indoors on account of its free-flowering 
habit. Large, double flowers, which are rich car¬ 
mine-red in color. Richly perfumed. 
MME. F. KRUGER. The deeply shaded coppery 
yellow flowers are produced almost constantly, 
each flower being perfect. It makes a well-formed 
open bush and is suitable for both indoor and 
outdoor culture. 
MARIE PAVIE. Produces an abundance of snow- 
white flowers, faintly tinted pink in the center. 
One of the best Roses for cemetery planting. Set 
out in the spring. 
MRS. B. R. CANT. This Rose produces its blooms 
almost as freely when grown indoors as when 
grown in the garden. Flowers full and double; 
color, bright rose-red, shaded with coral-pink. 
RED-LETTER DAY. This flower is semi-double 
and, like all Roses of this sort, it produces many 
more blooms than the fully double kinds. The 
color is noteworthy, being a brilliant, glowing, 
velvety scarlet-crimson.
