The French Rose 
Rosa gallica 
continued 
La Rubanee. We find it identical to those 
we receive from time to time under the 
name of Village Maid, Panachee Double 
and Perle des Panachees. It is one of 
the famous striped Roses. Rose and 
purple veinings on a white background. 
Marie Tudor. Salmon-pink, blotched 
with rose. 
Mercedes. (Vibert, 1847.) Large, double 
flowers of white and lilac, changing to 
pale pink. 
Mme. d’Hebray. (Pradel, 1857.) The 
double white flowers are prettily 
streaked with pink and lilac. 
Pepita. (Moreau fils.) Lilac-pink or 
violet-red striped white. Varies. 
Phenice. (Robert, 1843.) Small; almost 
white, striped pink. One of the most in- 
teresting of the small-flowered Gallicas 
showing the typical striping on a white 
background. 
President de Seze. (Mme. Hébert.) 
Lilac-red, shaded violet-orchid—most 
unusual color found in no other Rose. 
President Dutailly. (Dubreuil, 1888.) 
Purple-crimson flowers of large size 
heavily shaded with magenta; deep 
cupped form and very fragrant. 
Rosa Gallica. Ancestor of all the French 
Roses and, in fact, there is Gallica blood 
in most every modern hybrid Rose. 
Large, single, dark pmk flowers on erect 
bushes 21% to 3 feet tall. $1.00. 
Rosa Gallica Conditorum. (Western 
Asia.) Rather large, tawny pink flowers 
of intense fragrance. Hardy and very 
free flowering. The petals of this Rose 
are used for condiments in the Orient. 
Fruits are slender, miniature red pears. 
$1.50. 
Rosa Mundi. (Vibert, 1875.) Rather 
large, semi-double flowers of white or 
pale pink, broadly striped red and dark 
rose. Some petals may be all white, 
others all red, some half white and half 
red, some evenly striped. Altogether 
they form one of the loveliest color com- 
binations, making this one of our most 
striking Roses. This is the Rose that is 
usually sold as York and Lancaster. 
$1.25. 
Tricolore de Flandre. (Van Houtte, 
1846.) The double, well-shaped flowers 
are lilac-white, striped with light red, 
purple, and crimson. 
Tuscany. Aster-purple with Tyrian rose 
and touches of rhodamine-purple. 













The Pamask Rose 
Rosa damascena 
The Damask Roses are very 
hardy and make robust growth, 
clothed with large, rough, light 
green leaves. Their flowers are very 
freely produced and are generally 
borne in trusses of three or more. 
The fame of their powerful fragrance 
is second only to that of the Cabbage 
and the Moss Roses.

regular, fragrant bloom of pale pink or 
white with a few occasional solid reddish 
pink petals on the same flower. Rather

Rosa Mundi. We have the true York 
and Lancaster. $2.00. 
Che Cabbage Rose 
Rosa centifolia 
The Cabbage or Provence Rose 
has been grown in gardens for so 
many centuries that nobody knows 
where or when it originated. It is 
probably the most frag ant of all 
Roses and has been grown for ages 
to manufacture rose-water and at- 
tar of roses. 
Prices as noted, less quantity 
discount on page 4 
Cabbage (Rosa centifolia). This is the 
original Provence Rose, with double,
