C. 7. U. Whatthe introdu- 
cers say: “It is with posi- 
tive pride that we introduce 
this new white Rose to our 
friends. It isa strong, vig- 
orous grower, making hand- 
some bushes. The buds and 
flowers are of the very larg- 
est size, pure white in color, 
so full and double and per- 
fect in shape as to resemble a 
Camellia flower. The fra- 
grance is delicious, There is 
nothing among white Roses 
to compare itto. Itis by far 
the grandest of all white Ro- 
ses. This we say without 
any hesitancy. It is atme 
€ver-bloomer, belonging to 
the Tea Rose family. It was 
eminently fitting that we 
named this Rose in honor of 
the hallowed memory of the 
grandest «f all women, Fran- 
ces E. Willard, the great 
apostle of Temperance and 
Purity, the white Rose being 
the emblem of the society(W. 
C. T. U.) for which she gave 
her life. We are the intro- 
ducers of this Rose. and con- 
trol the entire stock, having 
a certificate of. registration 
from the Society of Ameri- 
can florists.” We make the

Rose. Strong plants. 50

The Great Rose for House Culture, SANGUINEA, or OTA- 
HEITE ROSE.— his oid iashioned Rose has been practically 
ignored in the past twenty years,except in certain localities 
where its worth and beauty have been known. It belongs to 
the Centzfolia Muscosa section of Roses, and is the one Rose 
that is eminently adapted to house culture,as it thrives un- 
der almost any conditions and surroundings. It is the only 
Rose in our whole list that will grow luxuriantly and bloom 
freely under adverse conditions. The foliageis small and of 
a reddish cast, when growing rapidly. The flowers are 
semi-double, of the most intense velvety-crimson,very bright 
and brilliant and freely produced. Besides its adaptation to 
house culture, it is grand for bedding out for a mass of 
bloom. It is employed in the East, around Long Branch, 
Newport,and the suburbs of the large cities by the hundreds 
of thousands for this ‘purpose. Be sure and try this Rose, 
either indoors or out. You cannot help but succeed with it.

MONTHLY CABBAGE, aGratid Hardy Rose.—We doubt if 
there is one personin athousand that was raised in the rural 
districts or in the small towns back in the fifties or sixties 
that does not remember the old Cabbage Rose of our moth- 
ers’ and grandmothers’ gardens. They could hardly keep 
house without one or more of this favorite Rose planted in 
their yards. When they moved these plants were carefully 
dug up and transported with their other effects. They 
could not think of leaving behind their favorite Rose, that 
gave them so much real pleasure. The old-fashioned Cab- 
bage Rose bloomed but once a year, in June. The Monthly 
Cabbage Rose is a continuous bloomer all through the Sum- 
mer. The color is a bright pink, lovely both in bud and open 
flower, both being large and double to the center. The 
fragrance is a true Damask scent,and is simply delicious. A 
grand Rose. 16 cents each; large two-year-old plants, 50 
cents each. euie

The peculiar Sweet Anise fragrance is confined to this Rose

L’INNOCENCE.—This great Rose was awarded the gold medal 
ai the Lyons (France) exhibition. It may be called the 
WHITE MADAME CAROLINE TESTOU [, of which it is an 
offspring, Flowers large, full, deep and double, globular in 
form. Color bright snowy-white. In-doors or out-doors this is a 
superb Rose. 265 cents esch; large two-year-old plants, 60 
cents each. 
CORONET.— This is the sweetest, largest, and freest blooming 
Hybrid Tea Rose in cultivation. It is a cross between that su- 
perb variety, Paul Neyron, and Bon Silene, two grand old favor- 
ites. Coronet is a true ever-blooming Hybrid Tea, identical in 
form and size with Paul Neyron. No description or illustration 
can dojustice to the remarkable beauty and splendor of its flow- 
ers, They are grand inevery way. From the time the plantis 
four inches high it blooms steadily, bearing in unbroken continu- 
ity, on good, stiff stems, magnificent large flowers that frequent- 
ly measure from four to six inches in diameter. The form is 
full, deep and wonderfully double. It is full to the center, and 
when entirely open the flowers do not look unlike Pzonies. This 
resemblance is made all the more striking by the peculiar color 
which is absolutely unlike any Rose we know. In the bud the 
color is a deep, rich carmine, which, as the flowers open, lightens 
to. a soft,clear pink, with each petal distinctly edged with si:very- 
gray. The effect is beautiful. The fragrance is simply de- 
licious. In flower and foliage it resembles Paul Neyron, while 
in vigor of growth the Bon Silene blood is shown. Itisa strong, 
healthy grower, forming a compact bush In the open ground, 
where it is hardy, it does splendidly, commencing early in the
