SIGNORA. (Plant Pat. 201) A real masterpiece in both plant and 
bloom. The long bud of a warm burnt sienna opens to a lighter hue 
called manderin, indescribably beautiful. The bush is a tall grower 
with every bloom coming on a long stem, 27 petals. $1.25. 
SIR HENRY SEGRAVE. It uncurls so beautifully and holds the 
center so well that it always gives a lot of pleasure. The color is 
light yellow. 60 petals. 85c. 
SISTER THERESE. I am very fond of this semi-double rose. I 
like the beautiful long golden buds and when they open the large 
broad apricot yellow roses are very striking with their brownish 
stamens in the center. 22 petals. 85c. 
SOLIEI DE FRANCE. Long pointed buds; rich yellow; large, 
fairly double bloom with warm tints of orange and apricot. Fairly 
scented. Prolific bloomer on a bush of medium height. 85c. 
SOUV. DE CLAUDIUS PERNET. Lo,ng the most popular yellow 
rose, it is losing in popularity becatise of its defects in the early 
summer of a black center and greenish colored petals. Its yellow 
color and fine form are great in the late summer and fall. 44 
petals. 80c. 
SOUV. DE GEORGE BECKWITH. The large double blossoms are 
fine for exhibition purposes. They are salmon pink color and are 
produced on good long stems. 37 petals. 80c. 
SOUV. DE GEORGE PERNET. An old favorite. The large reddish 
blossoms are delicately fragrant and almost look like a peony when 
they are open. A vigorous grower. 35 petals. 80c. 
SOUV. DE MME. CHAMBARD. Have you seen the charming two- 
tone coral pink blossoms of this sterling rose? They are a new shade 
and very beautiful. The bud holds well in the center of the open¬ 
ing blossoms. 40 petals. 85c. 
STARGOLD. (Plant Pat. 248) I am very fond of this new variety. 
Its yellow blossoms are so bright in color they glisten. The petals 
curl giving the medium sized blossoms a star like appearance. Spicy 
fragrance An upright strong grower. 32 petals. $1.25. (The sup¬ 
ply is low) 
STERLING. A new strong growing pink rose that at times is 
simply marvelous. The pink turns to gold at the base of the large 
petals giving it a luminous shean. The buds are long and the blos¬ 
soms large and double. 37 petals. $1.25. 
SUNSTAR. A novel rose. In the bud it is deep golden touched 
with carmine. As it unfolds the color changes decidedly to a pink 
and yellow with a deeper pink edging. Semi-double and charming 
for those who like the more single types. 16 petals. 80c. 
SYRACUSE. The double red blossoms are composed of about 60 
small petals. They are borne singly on long straight stems. The bush 
grows well. 80c. 
TALISMAN. Almost everyone knows this two-tone striking blos¬ 
som. The yellowish color on the inside and the reddish on the out¬ 
side of the 30 or more petals makes a long remembered sight. The 
stems are a little weak. 80c.
