 are of a delicate flesh-color, and are produced in the greatest 

 abundance.

 blooming quality, and its fine color, render it one of the very best

 roses. Its form is cupped, it is very fragrant, and is well adapted 

 for forcing. 



O PHI RE, N., is a medium-sized rose, of a very singular color, 

 entirely different from any other rose known, being a bright 

 salmon, almost saffron. It blooms in clusters, and its luxuriant 

 habit would make it a good pillar rose. 



PACTOLE, N., is one of the very best of the cluster-flowering 

 roses. Its form is cupped, and its color pale sulphur, with a 

 deep yellow centre. It blooms very abundantly, and is robust 

 and hardy.

 very beautiful. It is an abundant bloomer, and its large flowers 

 are of a whitish-fawn color, beautifully clouded with rose.

 with brilliant crimson flowers. Its robust habit and its large, 

 dark-green foliage, make it a good pillar rose.

 globular flowers of a brilliant carmine.
