■with over one hundred plants, last season, showed it to be exceedingly -well adapted 

 for this purpose. The flowers are as pure white as the old White China, but, unlike 

 the old variety, this new Rose is double. The flowers are borne on long foot-stalks, 

 which makes it quite valuable for bouquets, as the stalk is loug enough without the 

 necessity of an artificial stem. It is entirely free from mildew so common in white 

 roses.

TUBEROSE, NEW DOUBLE "PEARL." 



We doubt if any new plant that we have 

 sent out in our long experience will be so much 

 valued as this. Of its origin nothing certain 

 is known, further than that it was observed 

 among the ordinary variety by John Hender- 

 son, of Mushing, L.'I., by whom it has been 

 cultivated for the past five years, when he sold 

 the stock to us last Spring, and it is now for 

 the first time offered for sale. Its value over 

 the common sort consists in its flowers being 

 of nearly double the size, while its habit is more 

 robust; yet the flower stems grow only from 

 eighteen inches to two feet in height, while the 

 stems of the common Tuberose, under the same 

 conditions, would be more than double that 

 height. Its shorter thicker stem seems to give 

 it greater power to perfect the flower buds, as 

 we found on forcing it last Winter that not a 

 single flower bud of the dwarf shriveled at the 

 top, while more than half of the common variety 

 did. This alone will be of great advantage in 

 forcing for Winter flowers, to say nothing of its 

 increased size of flower and dwarfness of stem. 

 Hundreds of our customers had the opportunity 

 of seeing this valuable characteristic while we 

 were forcing it in our green-houses the past 

 Winter, and all believed this to be one of its 

 greatest merits.
