MODERM ROSES OF PROVED MERIT 
HEJVDEJiSON'S SELECTION 
A Trio of Beautiful Roses 
The Three Killarneys 
Killarney. A very beautifiil Hybrid Tea Rose. The color is an exquisite shade 
of dec^ shell-pink lightened with silvcry-ptnk. The base of the petals is a 
soft silvery-white, relieved with enough yellow to make it more attractive. 
The buds are exceptionally long, the open flower is graceful in the extreme. 
Hardy in this climate without protection. In the garden the flowers are very 
lasting, delicate Tea Rose fragrance. {See cut.) 
Killarney Queen. A cerise-pink “sport” of Killarney, exceptionally strong in 
growth with excellent foliage. The buds are long and well formed; a fine 
variety for cutting. {See cut.) 
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. It has more petals 
than the parent variety, of greater substance, so is of greater value for out¬ 
door bedding. Many consider it easily the finest white garden Rose in culti¬ 
vation. {See cut.)

Chateau de Clos Vougeot. A very rich, fiery-scarlet shading to 
deep velvety-crimson; surpassing in color the famous “Jubilee” Rose 
which we introduced in 1897. Words arc inadequate to describe and 
pigments are not made which could reproduce the wonderful coloring 
and texture of this truly remarkable Rose. The velvety finish on the 
petals, the conflagration of color, the fine shape, the size, the dark green, 
heavy foliage so strong and healthy as to be immune from the two 
scourges of Roses, black spot and white mildew, all stamp it as a variety 
of pronounced merit.
