ROSE, GEM OF THE PBAIRIES. 



Is a hybrid between the well-known climbing rose, Queen of the Prairies, and the 

 hybrid perpetual, Madame Laffay ; it possesses the climbing qualities of the Prairie 

 Rose, with the richness of color and delicious fragrance of the hybrid perpetual. The 

 color is of a light shade of crimson, occasionally blotched with white. The flowers are 

 large, perfectly double, and of fine form, which are borne on trusses, numbering from 

 ten to twenty buds on each. This has now become a standard sort, possessing, as it 

 does, all the habits of a climber, with the color of the hybrid perpetual class.

 50 cents each ; $4.50 per dozen.
