WINNIE DAVIS. Many new roses are produced in large numbers each year, both in foreign countries as well as at home. After several seasons of trial, for one cause or another they are temporarily laid aside or entirely thrown away as not coming up to the standard in not having qualities which would place them in com-parison with others. The Winnie Davis Rose, however, we are happy to say. the more we grow and produce the more convinced we and many hundreds of patrons are who have seen the same, that it is one of the finest and most original colored roses on the market. The color is difficult to describe. ln small bud it is reddish pink; when unfolding and more developed however, it is a yellowish pink running to salmon, the inside of petals creamy white; when fully open resembling a sunburst, something not found in any other rose. The bloomiug qualities can not be excelled, every eye and shoot making a bud: the foliage of a leathery green with red veins. Its habits are vigorous, free blooming and a robust grower. This grand rose is a seedling of our own production, being a cross between the famous Kaiserin Augusta Victoria and Belle Siebrecht. If you have not yet seen it, send for one, as no rose bed or garden is complete without it. Strong plants in 2½ inch pots, 15 cents each; 3 inch pots, 25 cents each 4 inch pot plants, 50 cents each.

Rose Winnie Davis.
Nanz & Neuner, Louisville, Ky., have pleased the people of the Southland by christening their new rose “Winnie Davis" for the Daughter of the Confederacy. The rose was first shown at Richmond, Va , at the unveiling of the monument to the memory of Miss Davis and will not be offered for sale until next year. It is across between Kaiserin Augusta Victoria and Mme. Caroline Testout. In color it is salmon pink, shading to pure white at the base of the petals. The bud is long. A two years' trial has convinced the originators that the seedling is hardy outdoors in the southern and middle states. It is of vigorous constitution and the illustration gives a fair idea of the beauty of its bloom.
