Hardy, Ever-Blooming Rose 
Admiral Schley. 
This was raised by Mr. 
John Cook of Baltimore and 
named by him in honor of 
one of Maryland’s favorite 
sons. This is essentially a 
Rose for the garden, iron¬ 
clad in its resistance to all 
diseases, particularly mil¬ 
dew, that scourge of out¬ 
door Roses in this country. It blooms in the most 
luxurious abundance and even in the hottest weather the 
flowers remain double. The color is a crimson-red shading 
to deeper crimson. A large bed of it planted out in the 
garden will be, under ordinary conditions, a mass of deep 
crimson bloom all season. ( See cut.) 
Price, 1st .size, 50c. each, $4.50 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. 
each, S3.00 per doz.; 3d size, 10c. each, SI.00 per doz. 
A GRAND. SOFT, WHITE ROSE, JVORY 
This beautiful Rose is a sport from the variety “ Golden 
Gate,” which has attained such popularity the past few 
years as a first-class sort for winter blooming. ” Ivory ” 
has the same strong, sturdy habit as the parent, the same 
large fragrant flowers, the same long, heavy-flowering stems, 
the fine buds and elegant form as the parent; but is a soft 
white in color. This Rose is certain to have a prominent posi¬ 
tion in the list of best varieties for either summer or winter 
flowering.

are large, cup-shaped, moderately full and borne in 
wonderful profusion. A deep, brilliant crimson.

THE BABY RAMBLER. 
(MADAME NORBERT LEVAVASSAUR.) 
The descriptive name of “ Baby ” or Dwarf Crimson Rambler 
seems a misnomer, yet is appropriate, for the fame of the “ Crim¬ 
son Rambler ” belongs to it. It forms compact bushes about 
2 feet high, covered with clusters of rich, crimson-red flowers 
throughout the season. Perfectly hardy, it requires no winter 
care, and should improve each year with good culture. The 
coloring is brighter and more persistent than in its parent, 
the “ Crimson Rambler.” The size of the clusters and the 
number of flowers in each are the marvel of all beholders. 
As a bedding variety, to make a low, attractive hedge, to 
border a walk, for planting in cemeteries, or for growing in 
pots in the house, it stands alone and must find its way every¬ 
where. (See cut.) 
Price, 1st size, 50c. each, $4.50 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. each, 
S3.00 per doz.; 3d size, 10c. each, SI.00 per doz., S6.00 per 100.
