The buds are a beautiful pink; the color is held in the open 
flower. The flower stems are long the buds and flowers are held 
erect, and it is delightfully fragrant. Conceded by all to be the 
ideal ever-blooming pink, hardy, garden Rose. (See cut.) 
No. 4. MRS. B. R. CANT. 
This variety is remarkable for its 
robust habit and the profuse manner 
in which it blooms. The flowers 
are of medium size and of a beauti¬ 
ful deep rose color on the outer 
petals,quite red in some cases; while 
the inner petals are soft silvery rose, 
buff at the base. A healthy grower, 
free bloomer. (See cut.) 
no. 5. GRUSS AN TEPLITZ. 
The color when first opening is a 
very dark, rich crimson; as the 
flower opens it discloses bright scar¬ 
let, shading to velvety, fiery red. 
The flowers on well grown and estab¬ 
lished plants are large and full, very 
showy and handsome. It is a 
prodigous bloomer, one of the freest 
known, remarkably healthy and 
vigorous, almost immune from all 
diseases. (See cut.) 
C. P. STRASHEIM. 
A garden gem in ever-blooming 
Roses; color, light primrose-yellow 
with a touch of fawn. (See extended 
description and cut on page 131.) 
BURBANK. 
This valuable Rose is a cross be¬ 
tween Hermosa and a seedling of Bon 
Silene. It proves hardy everywhere 
with slight protection. It is an im¬ 
provement in size, brilliancy of color 
and perfection of form, with Her- 
mosa’s valuable habit of blooming 
all season. Every little plant com¬ 
mences to bloom as soon as it starts 
from a cutting. Flowers rich shell- 
pink, deepening to carmine-crimson; 
full, double, reflexed petals. 
MLLE. FRANCISKA KRUGER 
A favorite Rose for the garden and 
the most satisfactory variety in its 
color. The coloring is strikingly 
handsome, a blending of deep yellow 
with copper-yellow and buff shadings. 
Fine buds and splendid flowers which 
remain in condition a long time. 
MY MARYLAND. 
The color is soft salmon-pink 
which lightens up beautifully as the 
flowers expand. The shade is most 
pleasing, surpassing all other pink 
sorts in the eyes of many competent judges. Under arti¬ 
ficial light it is even more beautiful than in the daylight. 
The growth is splendid, sturdy and healthy, the foliage large 
and abundant. It is strongly and delightfully perfumed. 
FLORENCE PEMBERTON. 
Creamy white suffused pink with edges of petals occasionally 
flushed peach; flowers large, fully perfect in form with very 
high pointed center. A fine summer blooming rose. 
CLOTHILDE SOUPEMT. 
The flowers are borne in sprays, very double and handsomely 
wormed. The outer petals are pearly white, shading to a rosy 
pink in the center. They vary sometimes on the same plant 
from a pure white to deep silvery rose. A very prolific bloomer. 
No. s. WHITE MAM AN COCHET. 
SOUVENIK DU PRESIDENT CARNOT. 
This is the ideal, hardy, white, ever-blooming Rose. It is a 
pure white “sport” from “ Maman Cochet,” inheriting all its 
fine qualities. The buds are long and pointed, opening grace¬ 
fully, the expanded flowers are full and firm. (See cut.) 
Flowers very large, both in the bud and in the expanded 
blossom, double to the center, and expanding beautifully.
