The Most Famous Rose 
“AMERICAN BEAUTY. 
A hardy Rose of the largest size, having the ever-blooming 
qualities of the Tea Rose, with the delicious odor of the 
Damask Rose, consequently equally valuable for winter or 
summer flowering. In color it is a deep, brilliant rosy-car¬ 
mine, shaded toward the centre with rich carmine-crimson. 
This is unquestionably the most popular Rose now before the 
public, a popularity due entirely 
to its splendid value as a winter¬ 
forcing variety. (See cut.)

New, Hardy, Ever-Blooming Red Rose, CARDINAL. 
Of all the Roses which we have introduced for years there is none which 
has measured up better to the ideal standard than this. Habit and bloom 
are beyond criticism. “Cardinal” is a seedling of “Liberty” hybridized 
with an unnamed carmine seedling in the third generation. This gives promise 
of being the most valuable Rose yet raised by Mr. John Cook. Color, a rich 
cardinal-red. Is a very strong grower with a heavy flower. Its fragrance is 
very strong and sweet. It has proved hardy in Baltimore the past severe 
winter. The color of the flowers holds good in the hottest weather; the form 
of the flowers is such that it also remains perfect during the heated term; 
the health and vigor of the plant enable it to produce flowers constantly during 
the entire season. (See cut.)
