ROSES, STANDARD VARIETIES—Continued
CECIL BRUNNER
Known under various names, such as Sweetheart, Mignon, etc. Is a dainty, miniature Rose. Light pink in color and every greenhouse should have a few plants of this
beautiful little Rose.
DOUBLE WHITE KILLARNEY
There are several strains of Double White, but this stock we secured from a sport
of Double Pink Killarney, and it is the finest type we have seen. In some soil Double
White does not produce as many blooms as the Single White Killarney.
FRANK W. DUNLOP
A seedling from Russell, which is a great improvement on that variety in all respects
and particularly in its quick free growth and freedom from spot. The color is somewhat on the shade of Russell, but altogether more brilliant. The form of the flower is
ideal and no Rose we know of shows such character as does Dunlop. The flower is very
large, larger than Russell from wood of equal strength. There are no malformed buds,
even the strongest shoots produce perfect flowers. Flowers average about forty-five
petals, but the shape is such that the flower opens freely in dark weather.
HOOSIER BEAUTY
A rich, velvety crimson in color with deeper shadings. It is as fragrant as Richmond,
has more petals and better keeping qualities. In production of bloom it ranks with any
forcing variety. It naturally throws 2- and 3-foot stems; never has a dormant period,
starting new growth very quickly at any time of the year, j The glowing color, sweet scent,
well shaped buds, large, full flower, long keeping qualities, clean, healthy habit and
freedom in growth and production of bloom have been declared wonderful. It is also
easy to propagate.
MADAM BUTTERFLY
Described as a glorified Ophelia. It is altogether more vigorous in growth than its
parent, Ophelia, as grown side by side in our establishment. Foliage and habit can be
most quickly described as unsurpassed by any existing variety. The individual bud is
larger and the color tints of Ophelia are greatly intensified, making it a harmony of bright
pink, apricot and gold. It is so much superior to Ophelia in every way that we predict
it will take the place of the latter variety.
MRS. AARON WARD
A general favorite; rather short in bud, but wonderfully free flowering. In the bud
state color is a beautiful, rich yellow, which changes to shades of pink as the flower
develops.
MRS. CHAS. RUSSELL
Pink American Beauty, enormous in size, which lines into beautiful shape in flower,
stem and foliage.
MRS. JOHN COOK
White, suffused delicate pink; much better grower in summer than White Killarney;
very strong and healthy in habit; looks as though it should fill a place in the white section.
