Carl Shamburger Brings You

Among all the flowering shrubs that grace the garden, none compare to the Rose. Of diverse color 
and character of foliage, of endless design and color of blooms, it lends itself to a wider range of dec¬ 
oration than any other single group of plants. The Rose is truly termed "The Queen of Flowers." And 
to this end the lives of the Shamburgers has been dedicated. They have spared neither time or effort 
to bring to you the world's choicest Roses. 
For your convenience in selecting the colors you desire, our Roses have been arranged under 
color headings. 
All Roses in this Catalogue ore sold at 30c each, $3.00 per dozen, unless 
otherwise stated. 
MRS. CHARLES BELL 
PINK ROSES 
BETTY UPRICHARD. The color of this popular va¬ 
riety is brilliant orange-carmine on the outer surface; 
copper-red buds open to semi-double blooms. A 
strong-growing, free-blooming, and healthy Rose. 
BRIARCLIFF. A descendant of the noted Colximbia 
family. The stems are long and stiff, and bear 
pointed buds. The flowers are double, high centered, 
fragrant, a beautiful brilliant rose-pink. 
CHARLES P. KILHAM. Brilliant orange-pink suf¬ 
fused with glowing yellow. The blooms are very 
large and shapely, and slightly fragrant. The plants 
are low growing, rarely over 24 inches high, bushy 
and very free blooming. 
COLUMBIA. A lively bright pink which deepens 
in color as the bloom matures; sweetly scented. 
Especially good in late summer and autumn, when 
the blooms are borne in profusion. A reasonably 
strong grower with healthy foliage. 
DAINTY BESS. Single flowers which are often 3 
inches across. The color is a pure flesh-pink with 
tints of old-rose on the reverse of the petal. A variety 
that has attracted a great deal of attention, as the 
flowers are at times nearly square, somewhat after 
the fashion of clematis. 
DAME EDITH HELEN. At its best in both color and 
size in spring and autumn. The flowers are clear 
pink, very fragrant, and carried on strong erect stems. 
A vigorous-growing plant. Generally considered a 
top-notch pink Rose and we believe it deserves the 
position. 
EDITOR McFarland. Among the finest of the deep 
pink Roses. The color, which is a clear brilliant pink, 
holds all through the season. The blooms are fra¬ 
grant, carried on long stems, and extremely desira¬ 
ble for cutting. 
HOLLYWOOD. The bloom, which is of medium size 
but full double, is a dark rose-red with darker vein- 
ings; it is extremely fragrant and carried on long 
stems. The plant is bushy, upright in habit. 
JONKHEER J. L. MOCK. The blooms ore very large, 
full double, and rich deep pink, with the reverse of 
the petals showing silvery rose. A heavy bloomer in 
spring and fall, -with a moderate number of blooms 
in summer. 
KILLARNEY. Bright sparkling pink blooms come 
from long-pointed buds. Popular both for the garden 
and for growing under glass. It is a strong, robust 
plant, giving flowers liberally. 
LA FRANCE. One of the oldest Hybrid Tea Roses 
in cultivation but equal to many of the modern sorts. 
The blooms are bright pink with curling petals that 
show silvery tints; fragrant. 
LADY ASHTOWN. Both the buds and the blooms 
are a shiny pink, with a slight touch of yellow at 
the base of the petals; quite fragrant. 
MRS. CHARLES BELL. Similar to Radiance but with 
a softer shade of shell-pink both in bud and bloom. 
A strong-growing plant with a clean foliage seldom 
attacked by dust. Like its parent. Radiance, this va¬ 
riety is a most delightful Rose, blooming freely in the 
South.
