A seedling variety of great distinctness of character. The growth is vigorous, 

 the shoots long, with fine green leaves, each shoot bearing a flower thrown well 

 above the foliage, and produced singly so as to require little or no disbudding. 

 The buds are long, oval and pointed, and of a beautiful cherry-crimson, permeated 

 with an orange shade. The flowers are of moderate size and almost full, with the 

 petals so well together as to retain their form for a long time. When first open 

 the blooms are light rosy-crimson, still keeping the orange tinge of the bud, bril- 

 liant in the extreme, passing to pure soft rose, the color clear and attractive.

 size, 15c. each, $1.50 per doz. 



A Splendid, New Red Rose, «« RICHMOND." 



This splendid, new red Rose is the most valuable addition to the list of winter- 

 blooming Roses sent out in years. It blooms as freely as the freest of the Monthly 

 Roses, very easy to grow, splendid foliage, long stems. The color is magnificent, 

 a rich scarlet -crimson, the most vivid and rich yet produced in the Hybrid Tea 

 Rose. Unlike other red forcing Roses, it does not " blue " with age. 



Price, 1st size, 60c. each; 2d size, 40c. each; 3d size, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 

 The New IrisH Ever-Blooming Rose, RIL/LARNEY. 



A very beautiful Hybrid Tea Rose. The color is an exquisite shade of deep 

 shell-pink lightened with silvery-pink. The base of the petals is a soft silvery- 

 white, relieved with enough yellow to make it more attractive. The buds are 

 exceptionally long and beautifully formed, the open flower is graceful in the ex- 

 treme. It is free in growth, strong, heavy shoots, which are crowned with buds. 

 This has become a great favorite for winter flowers and is worthy of the high 

 place it has attained. It has proven hardy in this climate without protection. 

 In the garden the flowers are very lasting, the coloring remaining clear and bright 

 .to the last. It has a delicate Tea Rose fragrance.
