WHICH IS SHOWN ON THE BACK COVER OF THIS CATALOGUE. 



(Flowers half natural size.) 



QNDER this title we offer 

 a Collection of Twelve 

 Roses, the cream of the new 

 and the old — combining the 

 greatest range and contrast 

 of colors, freedom of bloom- 

 ing, and general excellence pos- 

 sible to be got in that number. 

 In every order for the ii Gar- 

 land " Collection will 

 be sent free a pamphlet on 

 the " Garden Culture of the 

 Rose/' giving plain and clear 

 directions ; and all purchasers 

 of this Superb Collection, we 

 think, are certain to get a 

 grand bed of blooming Roses 

 throughout the entire season 



1. SOUVENIR DE WOOTTON. This is the first 

 season we have offered this superb Eose, which is equally 

 grand both for summer and winter blooming. One grower has 

 planted out 20,000 for winter this season. It is of largest size 

 of Monthly Roses, double and of fine form. Color, a carmine 

 shade of crimson, deliciously tea-scented. In our opinion it is 

 the grandest Eose, take it all aud all, now in cultivation. 

 Price, 1st size, SI. 00 ; 2d size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c. each. 



2. MAGNA CHART A. This hardy Hybrid Perpetual is 

 of the largest size, grand form, color as shown by the colored 

 plate, a deep pink; but no painting can convey exactly the 

 rich, natural shade of this Eose. Price, 1st size, SI. 00; 2d 

 size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c. each. 



3. COQUETTE DES BLANCHES. Pure snow white. 

 A grand Eose for cemetery purposes, as it is ever-blooming 

 and hai-dy even in extreme Northern States if given a protec- 

 tion of leaves. (See instructions.) Price, 1st size, SI. 00; 2d 

 size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c. each. 



4. ?IRS. J. EAINGt No description or painting can portray 

 the rich, shell-like color of this grand Eose, which is of large 

 size, exquisite form and fragrance, and hardy, like the preced- 

 ing. Price, 1st size, SI. 00; 2d size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c. each. 



5. PRINCE C. DE ROHAN. As will be seen by the 

 Colored Plate, this Eose is of the darkest shade of crimson, 

 almost black when in perfection. It is a true hardy Hybrid 

 Perpetual, of the richest fragrance. Price, 1st size, SI. 00; 2d 

 size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c. each. 



6. MAL3IAISON. An old but always scarce Eose, of im- 

 mense size, ever-blooming, and of the richest shade of blush. 

 It is nearly as hardy as the Hybrid Perpetual Eoses, some im- 



by following these simple in- 

 structions, which embrace the 

 treatment of Roses when re- 

 ceived — the necessary kinds of 

 soil and its preparation — the best- 

 time to plant — how to prune — 

 the most improved methods of 

 propagation — how to preserve 

 Roses during winter — insects- 

 and diseases, with the best 

 methods of destroying them. 

 These and other important mat- 

 ters are fully treated. Each 

 variety below named is num- 

 bered to correspond with the 

 colored specimens on back cover 

 of this Catalogue — which please 

 see.

 cemeteries for many years. Price, 1st size, 50c. ; 2d size, 30c. i

 ing. Price, 1st size, 50c. ; 2d size, 30c. ; 3d size, 15c. each. 



9. HERMOS A. Certainly the best ever-blooming Pink Eose ;. 

 it is always in bloom. A clear healthy grower, and hardy as. 

 the Hybrid Perpetual class. Like Malmaison, it is grown 

 largely in the New York cemeteries for its hardiness and con- 

 tinuous blooming. Price, 1st size, 50c. ; 2d size, 30c. ; 3d size, 

 15c. each.

 stock of which is controlled by us ; is of a bright, flame-colored 

 crimson, a seedling from Gen. Jacqueminot, but much more- 

 double and of a brighter shade. It is equally hardy, and is cer- 

 tain to prove a great acquisition. Price, 1st size, SI. 00 ; 2d size, 

 50e. ; 3d size, 30c. each.

 2d size, 30c. ; 3d size, 15c. each. 



12. LA FRANCE. As yet unequaled of its color, a satiny 

 shade of pink, shading to blush, of the most delicious fragrance ; 

 ever-blooming and very hardy. It is also largely grown for 

 cemeteries. Price, 1st size, $1 ; 2d size, 50c. ; 3d size, 30c, each.
