To any of my customers that had this happen from my last crop, tell me within two 
weeks after you get catalog and I will replace, as after that I expect to have everything 
I have sold except some Eutin of which I seem to have enough. The Doctor is NOT 
for the South or the hot sections. 
TREASURE ISLAND—I have worked with this variety for years and I am finally 
getting it to be fairly vigorous. Its unbelievably long bud make it the most sought 
after of all roses. First blooms in the spring will be a light pink and as the season 
gets warmer its color gets to have more and more yellow, making it finally into a 
two tone rose with quilled petals of a soft salmon pink toned copper with the reverse 
a deep salmon pink. I will not recommend this rose for the South or the hot sections 
even though the bloom likes heat, unless you want to plant it in shade and take the

MUTABILIS (Rosa Chinensis Mutabilis)—A perfectly amazing and delightful thing of 
exotic fairy beauty; the two-inch blossoms, single and dainty, open sulphur yellow, 
changing rapidly then to orange, later red, and finally to crimson, so that you have this 
unbelievable variation, all fresh and gay, on one plant. And the plant itself is lovely,

SUNDAY BEST—This brilliant rose will make observers open their eyes in astonish- 
ment if you use it rightly. It produces masses of very large single blooms of vivid 
crimson to carmine with a snowy white eye. It is good at all temperatures from forty 
to one hundred degrees, but the colors are of course deeper and richer in part shade, 
and with water and humidity. It is a semi-climber, growing about six feet in a season, 
and if pillared or grown as a fountain shaped specimen plant, either alone or among 
shrubbery, it is immensely striking. It is among the very earliest roses to bloom in 
spring, and gives forth a continual flood of bloom all season long. It is always 
perfectly healthy and dependable. If you do not want a climberesimply cut off the 
climbing shoot and the rest of the plant will keep right on blooming. In addition to 
all of these virtues it is hardy to at least zero................\..... th eae] ae eee > ehh eT $1.50 
CLIMBING CHRISTOPHER STONE, patented. This has been long hoped for. A 
climbing rose with the marvelous form and color stability of what is possibly the most 
sought after of all red roses by the novice, because it is always red whenever he sees it.

AT LAST WE HAVE A RED ROSE FOR FULL SHADE 
EVA—I have long watched this rose and enjoyed its constantly produced huge trusses 
of bloom that in full strong sun are deep pink, but when it is put where it likes to 
be, in partial to complete shade, it then comes into its own. The more shade and 
humidity the more red in the blooms till late in the fall, and with very little or no 
sun it will be a deep red. It will stand considerable frost and still the now blood red 
blooms keep opening. It is almost completely disease resistant and its vigor will 
make for you a hedge under trees or grow in full shade on the north side of a 
building with the stature of a climber if you allow it to be. I have had trusses a foot 
and a half long and a foot through and they last marvelously as a cut flower too. 
I have watched this for years and now am absolutely certain where it belongs and
