white. The new W. hortensis nivea is also very desirable. It is of a 

 pure, unchanging white.

 most of the novelties. 



I. La Reine ; deep rose ; old and invaluable. 



3. Baronne Prevost ; light rose ; old, but unequalled in its way. 



3. Caroline de Sansal ; flesh color ; old and excellent. 



4. General Jacqueminot ; deep crimson. 



5. Madame Plantier ; white ; a Hybrid China rose, to which we give 

 a place on account of its color, its abundant blooin, and its excellent 

 constitution. 



6. Maurice Bernardin ; deep purplish crimson. 



7. John Hopper ; rosy lilac. 



8. Mademoiselle Annie Wood ; crimson. 



9. Mademoiselle Marie Rady ; crimson.

Herbaceous Plants. 



These are so numei'ous that a selection is diflicult. The following 

 will be found excellent, and, being true perennials, and perfectly hardy, 

 will last indefinitely : — 



1. Variegated Monkshood {Aconihwi versicolor), 



2. White Fraxinella. 



3. White Day Lily i^Funkia subcordatd). 



4. Spirsea japonica.

Add to these a few of the best phloxes, paeonies, florist iris, delphi- 

 niums, pansies, and lilies, and the result will be a garden of which 

 nobody need be ashamed.
