Dear Sirs:— 
You will be pleased to learn of the success 
I have had with your Roses. Of the 4,700 planes ~ 
bought of you and planted in our new Rose garden last ~~~ 
June, all are alive and in flourishing condition except one 
plant of Avoca.

DOUBLE VARIETIES. 
THE FARQUHAR. (Illustrated on Cover Page.) The Farquhar 
Rose has glossy, bright green foliage which does not drop, but retains 
its lustre until cut down by severe frost, a feature which makes it most 
valuable for covering trellises, pillars, Summer houses, fences and rocks. 
It is perfectly hardy, and bears magnificent clusters of bright pink, 
‘double flowers on long stems which are most serviceable for vases and 
table decorations. _ Awarded the Silver Gilt Medal of the Massachusetts 
Horticultural Society; certificated by the Horticultural Society, New York.
