Wilhelm Hordes 
—This German 
variety of bizarre 
and marvelously 
beautiful coloring 
is, in our opinion, 
one of the most 
interesting roses 
in our collection 
because of its 
coloring. The 
color in general is 
red or pink on a 
yellow ground, 
but it varies 
from pink to red 
and yellow so 
greatly that it 
piques your 
curiosity into 
wondering what 
combination will 
be in the next 
flower that 
unfolds. It is always attractive, with real substance 
and beauty of form. 
Moss Rose—A beautiful species distinguished by the 
moss-like covering of their buds. Vigorous, stocky 
growth, lustrous foliage and perfect hardiness; the 
flowers usually large Mnom exceptionally long. 
Moss Rose—Pink, red and white. 40c each. 
ABBREVIATIONS 
T.—TEA—One of the best classes of Roses and truly 
ever blooming. They are hardy in this section, although 
during our coolest weather and in cold sections they 
should be protected with a covering of fir boughs, straw 
or burlap. 
H. T.—HYBRID TEA—Most of these are as free 
flowering and as constant bloomers as the teas, and 
are hardier, stronger growers. 
H. P.—HYBRID PERPETUAL—The hardiest of all 
roses, vigorous in growth, free blooming. 
Mildew—This is a flour-like substance that appears 
upon the foliage of Roses caused by too much damp¬ 
ness. Not especially injurious and can be eradicated by 
sprinkling foliage, when wet, with ordinary sulphur 
flour.
