 white, becoming purer as ihey expand. 



Mrs. Aaron Ward. Vew Roses in our trial grounds attract 

 as much attention as this beautiful French introduction, which 

 in color is a distinct shade of Indian yellow, which is more 

 decided in dry than wet weather, the yellow shading some- 

 times disappearing almost entirely in extended periods of wet, 

 cold weather. 



Mrs. Arthur Robert Waddell. An attractively colored 

 variety that meets with universal favor, a delicate, soft, rosy- 

 salmon, suflused with a golden sheen; flowers of medium size, 

 especially handsome in half expanded form; a free-flowering 

 garden variety that should be in every collection.

 color, the flowers are very large, of good form. 



Mrs. Wakefield Christie-Miller. Entirely distinct, the
