NEW HYBRID TEA ROSES. 



Augustine (xunnoisseau. (White La Franc.) A beautiful new rose that is destined to become popular. 

 It is similar to La Franc in habit of growth and shape of flowers. Color, most delicate blush, changing 

 to pale flesh, almost white. A healthy grower and free bloomer. Price, 35 cents each. 



La Franc de '89. Pronounced by all the noted French rosarians as the most remarkable Hybrid Tea of 

 late years. One notable peculiarity of this variety is its long, elegant buds, which are often 2 to 3 inches 

 long, while the expanded flowers are of immense size. Another strong point is its bright color, which 

 is very nearly scarlet, sometimes lined and bordered with pure white. Still another point in its favor is 

 the sweet fragrance — a precious trait in the rose. Undoubtedly a rose of enchanting beauty. It will 

 please you. 3oc. Small plants only. 



Souvenir de Wooten. An American variety of great promise, with the following good qualities : (1) 

 Color, velvety red, equal to Jacqueminot; (2) perfume which cannot be excelled; (3) continuous flow- 

 ering qualities ; (4) the most prolific bloomer in existence, every shoot containing a flower bud; (5) 

 habit exceedingly vigorous, and in foliage quite equal to the American Beauty; (6) it never makes im- 

 perfect buds, and dark weather but deepens the color, giving it a richer shade of crimson; (7) it is a full 

 double rose, and is good in bud, half open or fully expanded. Full open flowers frequently are six inches 

 in diameter. A most excellent rose. 25c to 50c. 



Duchess of Albany. This variety is identical with the well known and popular La France, except that its 

 color is a rich, deep, even pink throughout. The growth of the plant is vigorous, the habit good, and 

 the flowers, which are thrown up well above the foliage, are produced very freely. An excellent rose 

 either for forcing for cut flowers or for the garden. 25c to 50c.
