ROSES-_rne Queen of Flowers 
The Rose has been for thousands of years the queen of flowers, 
and no garden can be complete without representatives of the 
different types of these lovely blooms. We list here only the best 
varieties of the different classes of Roses, in a quality of plant 
which will give the best service to our customer. 
Hybrid Tea Roses 
These popular flowers are crosses be- 
tween the fragrant and hardy Hybrid Per- 
petuals and the old tender Tea Roses. 
They give quantities of bloom of cut- 
flower quality on plants which are hardy 
with a little protection during the winter. 
They begin blooming in late May or 
early June, depending on the locality, and 
if given plenty of water, occasional appli- 
cations of fertilizer, and kept sprayed or 
dusted so that the foliage is free of disease 
or insects, will bloom practically con- 
tinuously until stopped by frosts. 
All of the Roses we offer are No. 1 grade, 
2-year-old, hardy, northern, field-grown 
plants.

RED VARIETIES, continued

brilliant scarlet-red on a big, bushy plant.

globes of fire. $1.25 each.

with open, dark velvety scarlet flowers. 
Very vigorous and dependable. Especially

vigorous, healthy plants. $1.25 each. 
Mirandy. Plant Patent No. 632. The 
flowers have as many as 40 or 50 petals of

Nocturne Rose 
For exhibition and cut-flower purposes, the Hybrid Teas are 
unsurpassed. For a sheer mass of color in the garden there is 
nothing like the Polyanthas. The Hybrid Perpetuals will give 
you quantities of large, fragrant flowers in June, and Climbing 
Roses can serve many purposes.
