 bought of you and planted in our new Rose garden last

DOUBLE VARIETIES. 



THE FARQUHAR. Awarded the Silver Gilt Medal of the Massa- 

 ■chusetls Horticultural Society; certificated by the Horticultural Society, 

 New York. 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.
