ROSES. 



The twelve varieties listed below have been offered 

 under this heading with a view of supplying the 

 amateur, who is not familiar with the various varie- 

 ties, and to whom a selection from the long list of 

 Hybrid Perpetuals must necessarily prove confusing, 

 as a collection which combines as varied a range of 

 color as can be brought together in such a number 

 of plants, with freedom of flowering, perfect form, 

 fragrance, hardiness and general excellence.

 two=year=old stock, which will under ordin=' 

 ary conditions give a full crop of flowers 

 this season ; and while their main crop is produced 

 in June, they frequently produce fine flowers through- 

 out the summer and autumn.
