138 ELLWANGER & BARRT8 



CLASS II.— AUSTRIAN OR YELLOW ROSES. 



{Rosea hi tea.) 



These require careful pruning. Remove weakly wood altogether, and only shorten a few inches the shoots left 

 for flowering. If pruned close they will not bloom, as the flowers are produced from the terminal shoots of the old 

 Tvood. They are not grown on oicn 1'oots, but only as budded plants. 



Harrison's Yellow, free. (Harrison, 1830.) Golden yellow; medium size; serni-double. A freer bloomer than 



Persian. 50c. 

 PERSIAN TELLOW, free. (Willocic, 1830.) Bright yellow, small, nearly full. It is desirable to grow more than 



one plant, and by pruning one this year in the usual way, and the other plant the next year, annual crops of 



flowers may be had. 50c. 



CLASS ML— MOSS ROSES. 



(Rosa centifolia muscosa.) 



This is a favorite class with every one, on account of the beautiful buds, which, for bouquets and cut flowers, 

 are invaluable. 



They are subject, as a class, to mildew, and require close pruning and high culture. They amply repay careful 

 attention by the increased size and beauty of the flowers. They are all very hardy. The foliage is generally some- 

 what crimpled, and has mostly seven leaflets. 



The charm of a moss Rose is the bud. Such kinds as the Common, Gracilis and Crested, with graceful buds, are 

 •especially recommended. PHncess Adelaide is good both in bud and flower, and is grown upon its own roots. The 

 other varieties are difficult to propagate, and are grown as budded plants.

CLASS IV.— MISCELLANEOUS ROSES. 



In this class we place all the varieties of Summer Roses grown by us, that are not described in the three preced- 

 ing classes. Many of the groups of Summer Roses, by hybridization, are greatly intermixed ; in some classes but 

 one or two varieties are considered worth growing ; on this account we see no use in a catalogue for a multitude of 

 divisions, and therefore place them all in one class.
