being scarcely ever without fiowers in the growing season. Price except as noted: 
First Grade Plants, 30c each. Medium Grade Plants, 20c each.

excelled. Grows about 18 inches high.

same shape and form as Cecil Brunner, but the 
color is rich copper orange, similar to that of 
Mme. Edouard Herriott. 
GEO. ELGER. Bright yellow developing into 
dainty pale creamy yellow bloom of pretty form. 
BABY RAMBLER TYPE POLYANTHA ROSES 
This type of Polyantha is much like the old-fashioned Rambler, with many 
new finer additions. Grows only about 18 inches high. Fine for bedding or small 
hedges. 
CAMEO. Dwarf, cluster-type polyantha, cameo 
colored. 
CHATILLON. A fine pink Baby Rose with 
white center, giving a bi-color effect. Roses 
come in clusters of from 15 to 50. An improved 
Orleans. The showiest and prettiest of the pink 
baby class.

borne continuously throughout the season. Its 
unfading color makes it a fine bedding variety.

velvety crimson with white eye glistening, mil¬ 
dew-free foliage. The best Red Baby Rose.

tention. Unquestionably the most popular of all 
Polyantha roses. It holds its color well which is 
a decided merit.

Gloria Mundi found in our fields. Same dwarf 
compact growth and double flowers as Gloria 
Mundi. The most unfading red Polyantha we

blooms are produced in immense clusters. Pro¬ 
fuse bloomer.

crimson-scarlet, in sprays of 40 or more flowers 
each, that can be depended upon for a con¬ 
tinuous display throughout the season. 
LA MARNE. A beautiful semi-double with 
very pretty, good sized flowers, bright sal¬

exceptionally free and continuous flowering; 
one of the prettiest. 
MARYTJE CASSANT. Buds globular; flower
