Everbloomins 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
The Hybrid Perpetuals are hardier and more vigorous than the Hybrid Teas, and perhaps the most 
valuable of all Roses for permanent planting, as they will succeed almost any place, IVtany people 
in the North think they cannot grow Roses because of the severe winters, but Roses can be grown in 
any climate, provided the right kinds are planted. 
Our stock has been constantly selected from plants showing persistent everblooming habits. Hybrid 
Perpetuals should be given severe pruning after the spring blooming season to induce best bloom for 
late summer and fall.

of cerise-crimson. Intensely fragrant. Our strain of this

IF YOU WANT 
ROSES SENT BY 
PARCEL POST 
The most truly everblooming of all Roses. They are 
scarcely ever without flowers during the growing season. 
They are the first to bloom and continue until the last, 
even into October after the frosts have cut down the 
others. They are not climbers as the term rambler might 
indicate, but a bush rose growing 18 inches to 2 feet 
high and are proving more popular each year for bedding, 
borders and hedges. Flowers are produced in clusters or 
sprays of a dozen or more, and are excellent for mixed 
bouquets. 
CAMEO. Cameo-pink flowers produced throughout the 
season. 
EDITH CAVELL. Very lasting scarlet-crimson. Also 
makes a fine pot plant. 
GLORIA MUNDI. Orange-scarlet; profuse, continuous 
bloomer. 
GRUSS AN AACHEN. Buds orange pink, opening blush 
pink. The flowers are larger than most of them in this 
group and are delightfully fragrant. It is rarely out of 
bloom from June until severe frosts. The photo repro¬ 
duced on this page was taken in our gardens on October 
16th. One of the most satisfactory varieties in this group.

Eskimo Beauty Roses 
Hardiest Roses in Cultivation 
Rugosa Roses and their hybrids, commonly known as 
the Eskimo Beauties, are the hardiest race of roses in 
cultivation. They are not only suited to the coldest 
Northern ^States, but do equally as well in the South 
and West'; in the mountains and at the sea shore; in 
fact, they will grow most anywhere, requiring no care 
or protection and will adapt themselves perfectly in 
rough places and neglected corners of your yard. Also 
valuable for their resistance to insects, disease, blight, 
etc. They make dense compact shrubs 4 to 6 feet in 
height and are very useful as well as ornamental both 
as specimen plants and in the shrubbery border. They 
are the most dependable of all roses and should be 
liberally planted. 
A severe pruning immediately following the spring 
blooming period will bring an abundance of bloom 
through late summer and fall. 
Baby Doll 
Miniature Roses 
ideal for the Rock Garden 
or As a House Plant 
Just imagine a rose bush in full bloom small 
enough to place beneath a tumbler. The two 
varieties offered here are outstanding for use in 
the rockery or in small pots indoors, where they 
bloom the greater portion of the entire year. 
We ship strong plants, grown in pots, at the 
proper time for outdoor planting. If wanted for 
indoor culture, please specify shipping date. 
ROULETTI. The smallest rose in existence. The tiny buds, no 
larger than^ a pea, open into well formed, double rose-pink flowers 
about the size of a dime. We have seen this plant bloom when only 
2 inches high and so small it could be planted in a thimble. 
Strong pot plants, 30c each ; 3 for 75c, postpaid. 
BABY LILLIAN. A brand new variety offered for the first 
time last year. The flower is a little larger than Rouletti, is a 
vivid shade of pink shaded salmon, and is fra¬ 
grant. We know you will be well pleased with 
this little miniature. Strong pot plants, 40c each; 
3 for $1.00 postpaid. 
AGNES. Coppery-yellow buds opening to 
ivory-yellow. A fine double rose; richly fra¬ 
grant ; the only yellow Hybrid Rugosa.

carmine-red flowers changing -to “American 
Beauty" red as the blooms develop. The flowers 
are produced in profusion during June and again 
in the fall. 
BELLE POITEVINE. Full double flowers of 
bright rose produced in loose clusters. Flower 
continuously from June until frost. 
F. J. GROOTENDORST (Everblooming Carna¬ 
tion Rose). Small, bright red, double fringed

the most dependable rose in existence.
