BEST PLANTS FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE. 



135 



HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 



The list offered comprises all the distinct and really valuable shades. Many sorts have been left out, not because they 

 are of no value, but that the sorts listed are superior in size, hardiness, vigor, productiveness or some other characteristic 

 that is necessary to make a good rose. 



Varieties marked with an * are grown on their own roots. This class of stock gives much better satisfaction to the 

 general planter than budded or grafted plants ; however, some of the finest varieties will not produce good plants on 

 their own roots. In such cases we offer the best low budded stock obtainable. Care should be taken in planting 

 budded stock to set out deeply, planting them at least two inches below the point where budded, which prevents the 

 stock from suckering to a very great extent.
