ELLWANGER & BARRY'S LIST OF NOVELTIES. 



on the ground almost as closely as the Ivy. Foliage small, very dark green and lustrous ; the flowers, 

 which are produced in July, are small single, pure white, and very fragrant. A great acquisition. 50c. . 



Its remarkable habit, its hardiness, the brilliancy of its lustrous foliage, and the beauty of its flowers, which 

 appear when most shrubs are out of bloom, certainly recommend it to the attention of the lovers of hardy plants.

New White H. P. Rose, Margaret Dickson. 



We have had this superb rose growing in our nurseries for several seasons, and from what we 

 have seen of it there seems to be no doubt that it will be one of the best white hardy roses. Of mag- 

 nificent form ; white, with pale flesh center ; petals very large, shell-shaped, and of great substance ; 

 fragrant ; foliage very large, dark green ; a very strong, vigorous grower. 50c.

 globular form, flesh color shaded in the center with rosy pink ; growth vigorous ; handsome foliage. $1. 



New Bourbon Rose, Lorna Doone.

 shaded with scarlet ; handsome and very sweet ; of vigorous growth. A valuable addition to late- 

 flowering roses. 75c. 



Rosa Setigera. 



{The Michigan or Prairie Rose.) 



This is not a new rose by any means, but it seems to have been lost sight of for a number of 

 years. Now that single roses are so popular, this variety will be much sought after. It is a climber 

 and when trained over a veranda makes a beautiful display. Large single flowers ; deep rose color. 50c. 



One of the handsomest of single roses. — Garden and Forest. 



Lord Penzance's Hybrid Sweet Briars. 



We offer these lovely hybrids for the first time. Apart from their extreme beauty they are most 

 interesting, being crosses between the common Sweet Briar and various other roses. It is certain they 

 are a great acquisition. Like their parent, the common Sweet Briar, the foliage is deliciously scented. 

 The flowers are single and of the most beautiful tints. $1 each, the set of nine for $8. 



Amy Robsart — Lovely deep rose. 



Anne of Geierstein — Dark crimson. 



Brenda — Maiden's blush or peach. 



FJora M'lvor — Pure white blushed rose. 



Lucy Ashton — Pretty white blooms with pink edges. 



Lady Penzance — Beautiful soft tint of copper. 



Lord Penzance — Soft shade of fawn or ecru. 



Meg Merrilies — Crimson, 



Rose Bradwardine — Beautiful clear rose. 



To Whom It May Concern : Huntingdon Valley, September 20, 1894. 



In the spring of this year I planted an orchard for Mr. J. Pitcairn, of Philadelphia. We set out 2819 trees and 26,000 

 hedge plants, bought from seven different nursery firms. Ellwanger & Barry, of the Mount Hope Nurseries, Rochester, 

 furnished 1323 trees and 15,000 Osage Orange plants. The trees and hedge plants were all good and healthy, and very care- 

 fully packed, arriving here in good condition, and I did not lose one of them, which is more success than I had with those 

 from any other firm, as I lost some of all the others but one, and that was a comparatively small one. The order was shipped 

 promptly, and I take great pleasure in giving Messrs. Ellwanger & Barry my best recommendations. 



P. P., Supt. for J. Pitcairn, Esq.
