Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. This splendid Rose should be 

 in every collection. In color it is a soft pearly-white, tinted 

 ■with just enough lemon in the centre to relieve the white. 



Killarney. This is, perhaps, the best known of Dickson's 

 famous Irish Hybrid-Tea Roses, and is one of the most popu- 

 lar of our garden Roses. In color it is a sparkling 

 brilliant pink; the blooms are large, the buds long and 

 pointed, the petals very large and of great substance, and 

 just as handsome in the full-blown flower as in the bud form. 



Lady Alice Stanley. Deep coral-rose, inside pale flesh, 

 slightly flushed deeper flesh; a remarkably attractive and 

 pleasing color combination. The blooms are very large, full, 

 of great substance, and produce very freely and deliciously 

 fragrant; one of the best bedding varieties. 75 cts. each; 

 S7.50 per doz. 



Lady Ashtown. One of the freest-flowering varieties; 

 flowers large, double, with high-pointed centre, and are pro- 

 duced on long stems; splendid for cutting; in color a soft 

 rose, shading to yellow at the base of the petals. 



La France. An old favorite and a model garden Rose in every 

 way; flowers clear satiny-pink. 



La Tosca. Beautiful silvery pink, with deeper centre; a very 

 vigorous grower, with large, double flowers.

 liant carmine flowers throughout the season. 



Lieutenant Chaure. A splendid velvety crimson-red, 

 shaded with garnet; fine long hud with petals of cupped 

 form. 



Lyon. The long buds are tipped coral-red and chrome-yel- 

 low at the base. The flowers when expanded are large and 

 full, of superb color, being a coral -red or salmon-pink, shaded 

 with chrome-yellow in the centre, toning to a shrimp pink at 

 the tips. 



inarquise de Sinety. Every one who has seen this beautiful 

 Rose is enthusiastic over it. The buds are of a rich yellow- 

 ochre, suffused with carmine; the expanded flower, which is 

 of good size, is fairly double, of a rich golden-yellow, or 

 Roman ochre, shaded with bright rosy-red, delightfully 

 fragr'aftt.

light rosy-pink; very free-floweriiDg and fragrant; one of

 Mme. Abel Chatenay. One of the most popular Roses, 



both in the garden and as a cut flower; a strong grower and 



produces very freely beautiful flowers of carmine-rose, shaded 



with salmon. 

 rime. Jenny Qillemot. One of the most beautiful Roses in 



our collection, especially in bud or semi-expanded form, the

color a soft delicate shade of nankeen-yellow, suffused with 



carmine, a most pleasing color combination.

 salmon, with deeper orange-yellow, shaded centre, the 

 reverse of the petals being a salmony-pink; flowers large, 

 full and well formed; very free- flowering. 



Mme. Melaine Soupert. For delicate, soft coloring it is 

 difficult to surpass this pretty semi-double variety, which is 

 particulary fine in bud form; color a charming salmon-yellow, 

 suffused with pink and carmine. 



Mme; Philippe Rivoire. Very large flower, creamy-white 

 suffused with apricot; a most beautiful Rose, particularly so 

 in the bud form.

 its distinct color, which is of a rich, deep nankeen-yellow, 

 becoming lighter as the flower expands. 



Mme. Segond Weber. A grand Rose in every way. In 

 color it is of that soft shade of salmon-pink which appeals to 

 everyone,
