Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
By mail, postpaid: 2-year, No. 1, field-grown plants, 60c each 
FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI. The regal White American Beauty. The distinctive form 
and expression of its bud, half opened state and maturity make it a three-fold won- 
der in all its stages. In gardens they commence blooming with other June Roses 
and are conspicuous throughout the summer with their waxen white loveliness, blos- 
soming until frost comes on and stops them. 
GEN. JACQUEMINOT. Known as the Gen. Jack Rose. This is one of the old reliable 
dark red Roses, free blooming, rich crimson-scarlet. One of the most beautiful. 
MAGNA CHARTA. Strong growing, early blooming, with large flowers of bright rose- 
eS pink. 
ULRICH BRUNNER. Cherry-red, a popular forcing sort, and one of the varieties in 
most orders for hardy Roses. Its flower construction and habits are very pleasing, 
and the color appealing. A very good Rose.

Hardy CLIMBING 
and RAMBLER ROSES 
By mail, postpaid: 2-yr., field-grown, 50c each 
ALIDA LOVETT. (H.W.) Both buds and flowers are large; of ideal form, are held on 
stiff stems 1% to 2 feet long and the color is a lively bright shell-pink with shad- 
ings of rich sulphur at the base of the petals. The flowers are of remarkable sub- 
stance and long-lived, whether cut or left to remain upon the plant, and are pleas- 
antly perfumed. 
AMERICAN PILLAR. The single flowers range from 2 to 3 inches in width, arranged 
in mammoth, evenly rounded clusters. Brilliant carmine-rose, with distinct creamy 
white sector and yellow stamens at center. A superb arch cover. 
BESS LOVETT. Large, fairly full flowers of light crimson-red, cup-shaped, and borne 
in long-stemmed clusters suitable for cutting; sweetly fragrant. 
CHAPLIN’S PINK CLIMBER. One of the finest pink pergola climbers ever found. 
Large flowers, and a long season bloomer. 
CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY. This climbing form of the famous pink Rose, so 
long the American favorite for cutting, is as lovely and fragrant and deeply pink as 
the bush form. The hardy climber blood with which it is crossed gives healthy, per- 
fect foliage and a strong climbing habit of growth; the superb-abundant bloom in 
prime before the June show of the bush type. 
CRIMSON RAMBLER. Plant a vigorous, hardy climber. Dark red; one of the very 
best for porch work and lattice work. 
DOCTOR W. VAN FLEET. One of the newer types of climbers which combines abso- 
lute hardiness with flowers large as in the Tea and Noisette classes. This variety fg 
shows a mass of beautiful clustered buds, which open out into large, shapely flowers; é : ae 
delicate flesh-white. 12 to 18 inches long. 
DOROTHY PERKINS. A beautiful shell-pink climbing Rose. This is the finest Rose 
for hedging and arbors of any we have ever seen. 
DR. HUEY. (New.) Blackish red, a velvety nature, heavy bloomer, big grower; worthy 
of a trial in anyone’s garden. 
EUGENE JACQUET. Fragrant, cherry-red flowers borne profusely in very large 
clusters. 
EXCELSIA. This has superseded the old Crimson Rambler. It is vigorous in growth 
with healthy dark glossy green foliage. The flowers are very double, produced in 
large trusses. Color is intense crimson-maroon; tips of petals tinged with scarlet. 
GARDENIA. The tight, very numerous little yellow buds are beautiful in early sum- 
mer, the flowers opening up creamy white, jasmine-scented. 
HIAWATHA. (H.W.) Its flowers are about 1% inches across, and produced in long, 
pendulous sprays, with frequently from 40 to 50 flowers on a spray. In color it is 
brilliant ruby-carmine, with a clear white eye and a mass of golden stamens. 
JACOTTE. Quite distinct in this class; not only fragrant, but is rich in heretofore un- 
known color shades. The bud is orange-yellow; the 2%4-inch flower (clustered up to 
ten) is light salmon-orange shaded red and yellow. Foliage is dark green. 
MARY WALLACE. (New.) Although a good Pillar Rose, it becomes self-supporting 
and makes an ideal dooryard bush. The flowers are semi-double, bright clear rose- 
pink with salmon base. These are often 4 inches wide and appear intermittently dur- 
ing the season, following their first glorious outburst in late spring. 
MME. GREGOIRE STAECHELIN. This new variety is the aristocrat of the Climbing 
Roses. Its beautiful flowers are of an enormous size and in color are an iridescent 
pearl-pink, splashed with carmine. Delightfully fragrant. Hardy, vigorous grower 
with large disease-resistant foliage. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. Winner of Gold Medal of National Rose Society’s ex- 
position. Flowers are scarlet shaded crimson; corresponds to Climbing American 
Beauty, Dr. W. Van Fleet and others as to size and beauty. Blooms long, an excellent 
variety for pergola work, and one of the best climbers sold. 
PRIMROSE. A pure yellow, hardy Climbing Rose. Its large, double flowers are a soft 
rich primrose-yellow and are borne in clusters of four and five on an extremely 
vigorous plant, with beautiful foliage. 
SILVER MOON. Four- to five-inch, semi-double flowers; pure white with thick clusters 
of yellow stamens. 
WER OF GOLD. (H.W.) The color is a deep golden yellow with orange shadings 
ety the center. This fills the ‘“‘long-felt want’ for a Yellow Rambler. 
WHITE DOROTHY PERKINS. Pure White, compact clusters. Baulieiscarien Comber
