Collection 



Who has not heard of the vale of Cashmere, 



With its Buses the brightest that earth ever gave?" 



(It is not generally known that the Monthly Roses are seedlings of the .Rosa Indica, the 

 Roses that Inspired the beautiful lines of Moore quoted above.) 



/■vHE "Cashmere" collection of twelve ever-blooming Roses contains, 

 /| in our opinion, the best dozen of ever-blooming and bedding varieties it 

 ^^/ is possible to obtain in that number, all being invaluable for sum- 

 mer and winter blooming. Space will not permit us to illustrate all of them, 

 although each is worthy of it. 

 Note. — With the exception of Souvenir de Wootton, Hermosa, White Ma- 

 man Cochet and Kaiserin Augusta Victoria, these Roses are not hardy in the 

 North.
