HENDERSON’S- 
CUTFLOWEK ' COLLECTION 
OF HARDY EVER-BLOOMING ROSES 
SEE COLORED PLATE OPPOSITE 
fn the “Cut-Flower” Collection of Roses, shown in colors on the opposite page, we 
. group together six of the most popular Roses now before the public. Richmond was 
introduced in 1905 and is still one of the best of its color. The others are of recent 
introduction. So quickly has their merit won for them a place in popular esteem that they 
arc now grown by the million annually for cut flowers. They all do splendidly in the garden, 
well established plants producing large flowers on long stems, freely and continuously throughout the season. Even the third size will 
flower the first season, but the larger sizes will, of course, produce more and larger blossoms. We will send free with each collection 
our pamplet on “The Garden Culture of the Rose,” which gives full detailed instructions on planting and care. 
A Beautiful Yellow Rose 
No. 1 LADY HILLINGDON 
Among the many Roses introduced in recent years there are none, in our 
opinion, which are liable to have a wider popularity than this. It is grown 
extensively for cut flowers and does splendidly in the garden. The color is 
bright saffron-yellow with coppery-orange shades. The buds are long and 
pointed. Of fine branching habit and ideal growth; it forms a model bush Rose. 
Because of its free blooming qualities, delightful fragrance and healthy consti¬ 
tution, it must rank as one of the best garden Roses. 
Price, 1st size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 
3d size, from 3-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
Hardy Ever'Blooming Garden Rose 
No. 2 KILLARNEY QIJEEN 
A bright cerise-pink "sport” of the famous Killarney that is stronger in growth 
and much brighter in color. The buds are long and beautifully formed, the open 
flower is graceful in the extreme. It is of vigorous growth making heavy shoots 
which are crowned with buds. The foliage is abundant and of splendid sub¬ 
stance, a dark healthy green. In addition to being an unusual forcing Rose, 
this variety is a decided improvement on the Killarney as a garden variety. 
Price, 1st size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 
3d size, from 3-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
“For several years we hare been endeavoring to establish a Rose garden, but it 
was not until we secured plants from Peter Henderson & Co. that we had any 
success, owing to our clay soil and severe winters. By carefully following the 
instructions in the 'Garden Culture of the Rose' we have yet to lose a bush secured 
from the above firm. In dealing with other houses we were often disappointed —• 
ordered a white Rose which bloomed pink? a perpetual which gives us flowers in the 
month of June only and a Tea Rose which proved to be a single wild Rose. We can 
say with satisfaction that every Rose from Peter Henderson &• Co. bloomed true to 
description and type, an added feature being their durability as cut flowers. 
During the past two years we have had Roses every day from the first of June 
until the last of October when Jack Frost nipped the remaining buds. ” 
Aug. 21, 1913. Mrs. LORETTA GAGER, Carlisle, Ohio. 
Hardy Ever'Blooming Red Rose 
No. 3 MILADY 
One of the most beautiful Roses produced in years. The color is a brilliant 
crimson-scarlet. As the buds expand the vivid coloring disclosed is very attract¬ 
ive. The form of the open flower is splendid, not too double, it remains long in 
good condition. The growth is upright; the stems long, holding the flowers 
well erect. It is a free bloomer and delightfully fragrant. The foliage is dark 
green and very ornamental. 
Price, 1st size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 
3d size, from 3-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
White Ever'Blooming Rose 
No. 4 DOUBLE WHITE KILLARNEY 
A pure white “sport” from the pink Killarney; equal to it in all the good 
points of the latter, superior to it in some. One strong point of superiority is 
that it has more petals than the parent variety, and these petals are of greater 
substance, so it is of greater value for outdoor bedding. The buds and flowers 
are beautiful beyond description; many consider it easily the finest white garden 
Rose in cultivation. 
Price, 1st size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 
3d size, from 3-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
Pink Ever'Blooming Rose 
No. 5 MRS. GEORGE SHAWYER 
This variety possesses the irresistible combination of size, fragrance, perfect 
form and color. It is a brilliant pink which shows up wonderfully under artificial 
light. The buds are long and pointed and open perfectly at all seasons. The 
flowers, borne on long stiff stems with superb foliage, are very durable under all 
conditions. Because of its freedom of growth and bloom, this variety is destined, 
we believe, to take a leading place among the garden varieties. 
Price, 1st size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 
3d size, from 3-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
A Splendid Crimson Rose 
No. 6 RICHMOND 
This splendid variety was raised by one of the leading Rose 
growers in America and at once became very popular for winter 
flowering, not only in this country but abroad. At the present time 
it is the best known and the most extensively grown Hybrid 
Tea Rose of its color. It blooms as freely as the freest of the 
Monthly Roses; very easy to grow, splendid foliage, long stems. 
The color is magnificent, a gorgeous scarlet-crimson, very vivid 
and rich. In the garden the flowers are very lasting, the color 
remaining clear and bright to the very last. Delightfully fragrant. 
Price, 1st size, 60c. each. $6.00 per doz.; 2d size, 50c. each, $5.00 
per doz.; 3d size, from 3-inch pots, 15c. each, $1.50 per doz.
