yslEW ROSES FROM OVER THE SEA;
Bew IbarD^ ** IRambler '* IRoae, Ibelenc,
Originated in Germany and introduced by us for the first time
last year. In many respects it is an improvement over Crimson
Rambler, of which it is a seedling, being of more robust growth
but not as rigid as its parent; elegant and graceful in habit.
Makes a growth of 10 to 15 feet in a season. Foliage similar
to Crimson Rambler, but less subject to mildew and insect
attacks. For open-ground culture it has no superior, being
perfectly hardy and a strong healthy grower. Its flowers
are borne in large clusters and are produced in amazing
profusion. The flower is larger than Camso?i Rambler, &\-
most double, and of excellent substance, remaining in per-
fection on the bush for weeks. Color soft violet rose, almost
blush; base of petals yellowish white, while the anthers
and pistils are pure yellow, rising boldly from the flower. ,■'
The buds are carmine, finely mossed, and are borne 20 to
50 in a cluster. This magnificent Rose is bound to be-
come popular when it becomes better known.

This magnificent
new Rose is a seed-
ling of La France
crossed with Captain
Christy, but is far
\ superior to either. We secured the entire stock through our Italian
- ^, representative, who named it by special permission in honor of the
, ^ Princ^^ss of Naples. We know of no Rose that will compare with
it in foliage, growth, and its free-blooming liabit. The flower is
very large, double and deep, cup-shaped, with one petal closely
overlapping the other ; deliciously fragrant. The color is anin-
-^ describable satiny pink, shaded silvery rose; exceedingly rich.
, We are proud to have the honor of introduciug it and," as the
stock is still scarce, we have absolute control of it and it can-

' not be had elsewhere.

A customer, Mrs. Robert Madison, Bloomfield, New Jersey,
, saysof this Rose: " It is one of the grandest Roses that I have
■ ever seen. The fragrance is delicious. Indeed the foliage is
beautiful of itself." Space will not permit us to quote all that
our customer writes in commendation of this variety.

must be seen to be fully appreciated. We know
of- no better description than that which ap-
^ peared in a recent number of American

but less full, resembling Crimson Rambler in growth and
flower. An artist friend declared that it was better, be-
cause less gaudy in color than Crimson Rambler. It is a
cross between iSosai^u^rosai^f/bra and OeneralJacqueminot ."
With us it has grown with remarkable freedom and
has produced its deep velvety crimson flowers in great
profusion in clusters after the fashion of Crimson Rambler.
To our minds the color, which is brighter than Crimsoyi
Rambler, can be likened only to the new Rose which is
illustrated on the front cover page of this book, Virginia R. \
Coxe, which is the brightest colored Rose in existence. If \
you want a Rose that is absolutely unlike anything else in \
cultivation do not miss this rare variety, the stock of which is ^^
very limited.
