(A) CALEDONIA. Purest white; perfectly formed buds on strong stems, 
opening into large double blooms of soft velvety texture. 
(B) EDITOR McFARLAND, All through the season, the lovely fragrant, 
glowing pink flowers are produced on long, strong stems, fine for cutting. 
The buds are perfect. We consider this one of the finest pink roses ever 
introduced. ; 
(C) ETOILE DE HOLLANDE. H. T. This Rose is comparatively new and its 
worth has been realized more and more as it has been tried. It is con- 
sidered by Rose experts to be one of the best red Roses on the market 
today. Flower moderately double, especially attractive when half blown. 
Its dark red overlaid with almost black velvet shadings, is irresistible. 
LUXEMBURG. An old variety, but one of the finest very bright yellow. 
Profuse bloomer, and a strong grower. 
MRS. P. S. DUPONT. Reddish-gold buds open to a semi-double golden yellow 
that is a glorious sight from early summer until freezing weather. Vigor- 
ous, compact, glossy foliage. 
PINK RADIANCE. Brilliant rose-pink buds; a well-formed flower of shiny 
pink with light tints on the reverse of the petals. Planted everywhere 
because it has made good everywhere. 
(E) RED RADIANCKE. This is one of the strongest and most vigorous grow- 
ers; a splendid color of clear red. America’s favorite Red Rose. 
ROUGE MALLERIN. Scarlet. Pointed buds of brilliant red open to 3% inch 
blooms of.glowing scarlet, the deep pile on the petals making them look 
for all the world like pieces of rich scarlet velvet. Rich old damask 
perfume. 
SOEUR THERESE (Sister Therese). Long, pointed buds are chrome-yellow, 
heavily marked with carmine; the open flower is rich daffodil-yellow and 
holds its color well. Sweet-briar fragrance. The blooms come freely on 
splendid cutting stems. You can always recognize this Rose from its habit 
of forming sturdy 3-foot, upright canes which are topped by a “lighted” 
candelabra of five or more burning yellow blooms. 
(F) TALISMAN. The most gorgeous assemblage of color in one flower ever 
presented by a Rose. That it has pleased the experts is proven by the 
great number of gold medal awards given it since the shows of '28. The 
bud is long and shapely, developing into a medium size compactly double 
flower; a free bloomer, with glossy foliage and stronge plant growth. 
Strong colors exhibited, mostly in well defined angular blocks; gold, apri- 
cot-yellow, blood-orange, deep pink and old rose. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
By mail, postpaid: 2 year, No. 1, field grown plants, 
$1.00 each 
(D) FRAU KARL DRUSCHKL, The regal White American Beauty. The dis- 
tinctive 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 waxen 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, rich crimson-scarlet. One of 
the most beautiful. : 
PAUL NEYRON. Strong growing, early blooming, with large flowers of 
bright rose-pink.
