SPECIAL AND IMPORT PRICES FOR FALL OF 1902 45 New Evergreen Roses (INTRODUCER'S DESCRIPTION) The most remarkable achievement and improvement of a new and distinct type of Hardy Roses that has been made for a generation- The growth is remarkable for its freedom, a single plant, four years old, covering a space 210 square feet with long shoots, 12 to 25 feet in length, completely covering the ground with its bright glossy foliage and showy fragrant flowers. The foliage of all is leathery in texture, shiny, and not only proof against insects, but evergreen — that is, keeping the foliage all winter, a charac- teristic in Roses never before obtained. The flowers are produced most profusely, are all of large size, very fragrant, and can be easily used forcut-fiower purposes, especially when in bud. The use of these Roses will be unlimited —for covering graves, to cover roots, stumps and stems of trees, walls and trellises, and also for forcing as pot-plants during spring, especially for Easter. JERSEY BEAUTY (Wichuraiana X Perle desjardins). Extremely vigorous grower; foliage shiny, thick, of leathery substance. Flowers singly or in clusters of two to four; large, single, three inches in diameter, opening pale yellow, with clusters of bright yellow stamens, which gives it a most striking appearance ; fragrant, and produced in greatest profusion, covering the plant entirely, and having the appearance of a yellow Cherokee Rose. Most striking variety of the set. EVERGREEN GEM (Wichuraiana X Madam Hoste). The most wonderful grower of the set. Foliage fine rich bronze color, closely matted. Flowers produced singly on stems; yellow, buff in bud, opening to almost white, two or three inches in diameter, perfectly double, and of a 1 delightful sweetbrier fragrance.
