DUCHESS OF PENARANDA 3 .85 
Duchess of Penaranda offers two distinct shades to 
its admirers. In the spring and summer the large 
pointed buds open to a large, double flower of 
coppery apricot and sometimes showing a dark pink 
cast. In the fall, the color is deeper and shows 
more of the bronzy shades. Regardless of when you 
see it the bloom is exquisite. Quite fragrant. Not 
alone is the flower beautiful, as the foliage is just 
as lovely and very free of disease. The bush is a 
very strong, upright grower and a prolific bloomer. 
Excellent in all localities. 
E. G. HILL $ .85 
An old favorite. Blooms are large, very double, 
dazzling scarlet shaded to deep red as blooms open. 
Exceptionally fragrant. Plant grows vigorously with 
an abundance of light green foliage. 
ETOILE DE HOLLAND % .85 
By far the best of the better known red roses. A 
beautiful dark, velvety red that seldom blues. Very 
fragrant and excellent as a cut flower. Growth some- 
times rather slow the first year, after that a vigor- 
ous grower with an abundance of disease resistant 
foliage. A prolific bloomer. 
FAIENCE % .85 
In Faience we have a rose with a different color 
combination than in any other rose. It is a two 
tone of soft peach and cadmium yellow. The bud 
is beautifully formed, long and tapering and is cad- 
mium yellow at the base and gradually fades to 
shrimp pink at the edge of the petals. In the open 
flower the outer side of the petals is cadmium yel- 
low while the inside of the outer petals is China 
pink deepening to coppery rose in the center of the 
rose. A good grower, 3 to 4 feet, with large clean 
foliage. A continuous bloomer. 
FRANCES ASHTON $ .85 
For those who admire single roses Frances Ashton 
should be in their collection. It is distinctly dif- 
ferent from any other single rose in that it is of 
uniform carmine color with wine-colored stamens. 
The plant is a tall bushy grower with clean foliage. 
Very floriferous.
