Cheerio Sunmist Red Velvet 
Collection of Above Varieties..............$2.50 
As bedding Roses this type is rapidly taking the place of 
larger flowering types, particularly in the plantings in public 
parks, etc. They are extremely hardy, very easy to grow, and 
make marvelous mass effects. They are medium in height 
and disease resistant. The varieties selected herewith are in 
bloom practically the entire season and retain their colors 
even in the very hot Summer weather. Where one wishes to 
relieve the monotony of solid plantings of Evergreens we rec- 
ommend a few of these Roses interspersed in your planting to 
add color. Plant 15 to 18 inches apart for best effect. 
Cheerio—Clear Mallow pink shading to a deeper Rose at the 
base of the petal. Reverse of the petal is a luminous Rose 
madder that is most effective. Quantities of brilliant dou- 
ble flowers in massive clusters. 
Sunmist—Clear light sulphur yellow shading to canary yellow 
at the base of the petal. Large imposing flower clusters. 
Unsurpassed for massing in beds or borders. Graceful long 
pointed buds. 
Red Velvet—The most magnificent red Rose that it has ever 
been our privilege to see, it is such a vivid rich crimson 
color. The flowers look like pieces of brilliant red velvet 
scattered around, and it is the type of Rose that will at- 
tract your attention the instant you enter the garden where 
it is growing. Vigorous grower and very free flowering. 
Donald Prior (Patent Applied For)—Flowers semi-double, 
cup-shape, bright scarlet, flushed crimson; much larger than 
“Else Poulsen.” Fragrant; foliage dark green; very free 
flowering. One of the most striking colors of the entire 
group. 
Betty Prior (Plant Patent No. 340)—Improved form of Else 
Poulsen. Outside of petals dark carmine, inside several 
shades lighter. Borne in large clusters on strong stems, very 
: P * ee ee ad fragrant. Foliage pale green, tinted purple; very vigorous 
CoRR Betty Prior grower. Resistant to mildew and diseases.
