420 ROSES. 



Madame Margottin. Deep lemon, rosy peach centre. 



Royal Tea. Pure white, very fine. 



Belle Lyonnaise. Deep canary-yellow, changing to sal- 

 mon. 



Perle de Lyon. Deep yellow. 



Niphetos. Pure white, very fine. 



Canari. Bright canary. 



Pauline Lebonte. Blush pink, a lovely rose which 

 will give more bloom than any we know. Fine globular 

 flower, lasting long when cut. 



Alba rosa. White, rose centre, large and full. 



Archimede. Rosy fawn, darker centre, a large flower 

 of good substance. 



La France. Rosy ; the most fragrant of all. 



Souvenir d'un Ami. Pink, a fine old rose. 



Adam. Pink ; fine long bud. 



Souvenir de Malmaison. Large, flesh-color. 



Mrs. Bosanquet. Delicate flesh-color. 



Madame Ducher. Fine form ; clear yellow. 



For a showy bed in the garden Agrippina is the best rose ; 

 it is not hardy in New England, but requires frame pro- 

 tection in winter. 



The bright-colored perpetual roses, such as General 

 Jacqueminot, are much used for forcing, and bring high 

 prices. A bouquet of this rose and Lily of the Valley, is 

 most charming in mid-winter.
