By mail, postpaid: 2-yr., field-grown, $1.00 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 
shadings of rich sulphur at the base of 
the petals. The flowers are of remark- 
able substance and long-lived, whether 
cut or left to remain upon the plant, and 
are pleasantly perfumed. 
CRIMSON RAMBLER. Plant a vigorous 
climbing form of the famous pink Rose, 
so long the American favorite for cut- 
ting, is as lovely and fragrant and deep- 
ly pink as the bush form. The hardy 
climber blood with which it is crossed 
gives healthy, perfect foliage and a 
strong climbing habit of growth; the 
Super-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 
absolute hardiness with flowers large as 
in the Tea and Noisette classes. This 
variety shows a mass of beautiful clus- 
tered buds, which open out into large, 
shapely flowers; 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 vel- 
vety nature, heavy bloomer, big grower; 
worthy of a trial in anyone’s garden. 
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 This has superseded the old 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 in- 
tense crimson-maroon; tips of petals 
tinged with scarlet. 
GARDENIA. The tight, very numerous 
little yellow buds are beautiful in early 
summer, the flowers opening up creamy 
white, jasmine-scented. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
By mail, postpaid: 2-year, No. 1, field-grown plants, $1.00 each 
FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI. The regal 
White American Beauty. The distinc- 
tive form and expression of its bud, half 
opened state and maturity, make it a 
three-fold wonder in all its stages. In 
gardens they commence blooming with 
other June Roses and are conspicuous 
throughout the summer with their wax- 
en white loveliness, blossoming 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, 


JACOTTE. Quite distinct in this class; 
not only fragrant, but is rich in hereto- 
fore unknown color shades. The bud is 
orange-yellow; the 2%-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-sup- 
porting 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 ap- 
pear intermittently during 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 
earmine. Delightfully fragrant. Hardy, 
vigorous grower with large disease-re- 
sistant foliage. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. Winner of 
Gold Medal of National Rose Society’s 
exposition. Flowers are scarlet shaded 
crimson; corresponds to Climbing Amer- a f 
ican Beauty, Dr. W. Van Fleet and Dr. W. Van Fleet 
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 Climb- 
ing 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 beauti- 
ful foliage. 
SILVER MOON. Four- to five-inch, semi- 
double flowers; pure white with thick 
clusters of yellow stamens. 
SHOWER OF GOLD. (H.W.) The color is 
a deep golden yellow with orange shad- 
ings in the center. This fills the “long- 
felt want” for a Yellow Rambler. 
rich crimson-scarlet. One of the most 
beautiful. : 
MAGNA CHARTA. Strong growing, early 
blooming, with large flowers of bright 
rose-pink. 

ULRICH BRUNNER. Cherry-red, a popu- 
lar 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.
