REDS 
Christopher Stone. One of the two best new red 
Roses of the past half-dozen years. Glowing, brilliant 
crimson-scarlet, with deeper dusky shadings as the 
flower ages. It never has a trace of blue at any time. 
The fairly long buds open ‘into magnificent flowers of 
great substance with delightfully spicy fragrance.

flowers that retain their brilliancy when fully ex- 
panded; very highly perfumed. Practically free from 
mildew.

stemmed, glowing scarlet-crimson blossoms, fine for 
cut-flowers, sweet perfume, dark green disease-proof 
foliage. Strong grower.

Hoover is much deeper in color with more red 
shades dominating. Otherwise with all the Hoover’s 
magnificent qualities. No. 1 grade, 60c. Limit 1 to 
order. 
Red Talisman. A striking red sport of Talisman 
has the same handsome form of Talisman buds but 
is maroon-red, opening to velvety blood-red with 
an overglow of amber. The color varies considerably 
with weather conditions and is at its best in cool 
weather. In the fall the blooms are magnificent. No. 
1 grade, 60c. Limit 1 to order. 
Rouge Mallerin. Petals like scarlet velvet. Color 
does not fade or blue even in brilliant sunshine. Nice- 
ly formed buds of medium size opening to fully

side, a coppery-pink outside. Long buds splendidly 
shaped, excellent stiff stems for cutting, produced 
in great quantities. 
Imperial Potentate. A clear shining rose-pink. 
Beautiful form and lasting qualities. It is possibly 
the most highly perfumed rose grown. When you 
bury your nose in a bloom of Imperial Potentate 
you are amazed at the concentrated sweetness that 
one bloom can possess. 
J. Otto Thilow. A rich glowing rose-pink flower, 
with long-pointed buds opening out into a beautiful, 
large, double, high-centered flower with just about 
the most perfect form of any pink rose.

of bloom through the season, every bud is perfectly 
formed.” The pink color has warm undertones of sal- 
mon.‘ The flowers a sweet Tea fragrance. 60c each.

has made a place for itself by the sheer beauty of the 
enormous, delicately colored, heavy petalled pink 
blooms, which are so big sometimes you can hardly 
believe them real—6 inches across with buds in pro- 
portion. Exquisite, silvery pink flowers, with intense- 
ly sweet fragrance. 75c each. Limit 1 to order,

white, with immense long buds and very double flow- 
ers, wax-like in texture. Hardy everywhere, with

MULTI-COLORS 
Autumn. Full handsome buds are a superb burnt- 
orange, the opening flowers heavily suffused with 
russet-brown and bronzy red all over-laid on a 
background of rich yellow in a color combination 
of glorious autumnal foliage. Deliciously fragrant. 
Hinrich Gaede. Without doubt one of the best roses 
introduced in recent years. Rosy copper with bril- 
liant orange tones which hold until the last petal 
drops. Buds extra large, of good form, borne singly 
on long strong stems. Blooms freely and the dark 
glistening foliage is very resistant to mildew. 
President Herbert Hoover. The fame of this won- 
derful multi-colored rose has swept the country and 
certainly no rose planting would be complete with- 
out it. Combines shades of cerise-pink, flame, scar- 
let, and yellow, the long buds being beautifully 
formed, opening slowly and possessing a most de- 
licious fragrance. 
Talisman. A vividly colored rose justifies all of 
the fine things that have been said about it. The 
brilliant coloring is a mixture of orange-scarlet and 
golden yellow in irregular proportions. Very double, 
exquisitely shaped, borne on long stems, exceed- 
ingly sweet scented. 
YELLOW AND ORANGE 
Golden Emblem. The lovely long buds of golden 
yellow are beautifully tinted with crimson on the 
outer petals. Opens to a full golden yellow flower. 
The glossy green foliage is particularly fine, does 
not mildew, and the buds are borne on long stiff 
stems, . 
Golden Rapture. Produces the most perfectly form- 
ed bright yellow buds—not a pale yellow, but a 
glowing shining rich yellow without any shadings 
and the color does not fade Has a pleasant frag- 
rance. Growth is medium. There is no finer yellow 
Rose in its color class and is popular with everyone 
who sees it. 
Mrs. [Erskine P. Thom. This is the most valuable 
yellow rose for the garden. The nicely shaped buds 
and well shaped open flowers are bright canary- 
yellow without other shadings, the strong growing, 
vigorous bush is lavish with the blooms. We know 
of no other yellow rose that we would prefer to 
recommend ahead of it. 
Mrs. Pierre S. Dupont. Everyone likes it for its 
cheerful profusion of bloom. Is extremely easy to 
grow, the dark green, glossy foliage being almost 
immune to mildew. Color is dark orange-yellow. 
Buds small but beautifully formed. 
Sister Therese. Remarkably vigorous, free-branch- 
ing. The long, tight buds are always perfect, with 
enough petals to keep well as a cut flower. Chrome- 
yellow buds tinged with carmine lighter yellow oper 
blooms, spicily fragrant, with deeper tones of apricot 
and gold. 
Ville de Paris. Flowers of clear sunflower yellow 
which do not fade. Its shell-shaped petals (20 of 
them) become lovely cups filled with delicious Tea 
fragrance. Vigorous, tall growing, glossy foliaged.

CLIMBING ROSES 
That Will Bloom This Year 
A climbing rose will produce as many flowers as a 
dozen bush roses. They may be trained against walls 
or fences and many of the vigorous growers will 
climb quickly into the branches of tall trees. 5 
RED CLIMBERS 
Climbing Etoile de Hollande. In our opinion, the 
finest red flowered everblooming climber. A strong 
grower, it produces some of the finest big red buds 
and open flowers that we have ever seen on any 
Rose, and the blooms are larger and on longer stems 
than the bush Etoile de Hollande and possess the 
same delicious fragrance. 
Climbing Hadley. Vigorous climber, which will pro- 
duce many times the number of beautiful flowers 
than can be produced on the bush. Beautifully 
shaped, double, velvety red blooms, sweet with the 
good old Hadley fragrance, have for years been ad- 
mired everywhere, and few kinds can beat them yet. 
Flash. Patent 396. An All-American Rose selection. 
Luminous-orange-scarlet petals with gold reverse. 
Climbs vigorously and blooms almost continuously 
from April to November. The most brilliant climbing 
rose yet introduced, $1.00. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. (Improved.) An intense 
vivid scarlet, semi-double, very freely produced in 
clusters of 3 to 20 blooms on long much branched 
canes, the plant being a mass of color from top to 
bottom. The flowers do not fade and there is noth- 
ing to compare with it for striking effect. 
PINK CLIMBERS 
Climbing Cecile Brunner. This famous climbing 
Rose, with its quantities of perfect miniature pink 
buds and flowers, is a favorite in California. Ex- 
ceedingly vigorous, with dense handsome foliage. — 
You can cut a bouquet of beautiful buds from it 
almost any time in the year. Gallon cans only, 75c. 
Clg. Mme. [Edouard Herriot.» (Daily Mail) Bril- — 
liant coral-red buds opening to flowers of flaming 
pink and orange. Flowers are slightly larger and 
more brilliant than those of the bush type and 
equally floriferous. ‘ 
Kitty Kininmonth. The flowers of this beautiful 
Rose are supremely lovely. Very large, ruffled, semi- 
double blooms of brilliant fadeless pink, in unbeliev- — 
able profusion. We rather think that it is our favor- 
ite pink climber. 60c each. : 
Reveil Dijonnais. For sheer brilliancy of coloring 
this is probably one of the most outstanding climbers 
ever introduced. Blooms are brilliant cerise-pink 
with yellow center. In the spring the flowers are 
borne in great masses and each bloom is immense in 
size. One of the most spectacular of all climbers, so 
rich in coloring that you can hardly believe that the 
blooms are real. 60c each. j wa 

YELLOW—GOLDEN CLIMBERS ea 
Climbing Mrs. Erskine P. Thom. Few will dis- 
pute the claim of Mrs. E. P. Thom to be one of the 
finest yellow bush Roses, and many will place it — 
first. We have it now in a vigorous climber, mul- — 
tiplying many times the number of flawless yellow 
buds which can be produced on a bush type. 
Clg. Marechal Neil. Long a favorite climber, this 
superb old lemon yellow variety with its large 
globular, highly perfumed blooms, still remains de- 
peed popular. Best in shade. No. 1 grade, ys 
each. i,

MULTI-COLOR CLIMBERS ie

this variety has been pleasing thousands of rose lov- — 
ers with its beautifully formed, coppery orange buds 
and flowers, and now we can have that beautiful, — 
glossy, bronzy green foliage, the most luxuriant and 
handsome in the rose world, spread over fence or 
wall and get dozens of those beautiful long-stemmed — 
blooms instead of just one. Plant Patent No. 394.
