THE LOVETT COMPANY, LITTLE SLLVER, N. J. 

 ALICE ALDRICH. 



Of remarkable and unique charac- 

 ter; a hybrid between a Rosa rugosa 

 and that splendid old hybrid perpetual 

 Caroline de Sansal. In habit of 

 growth and foliage it strongly resem- 

 bles the rugosa species, blooms 

 with great profusion in June and con- 

 tinues to flower throughout the sum- 

 mer and autumn. It also possesses all 

 the ruggedness and ironclad hardiness 

 of its Japanese parent, but the flower 

 in make-up, finish, color and frag- 

 rance, resembles to a greater degree 

 the Caroline de Sansal. The roses 

 are medium to large in size, densely 

 double (beautiful in the bud) and of 

 pure, bright peach-blow pink through- 

 out. There is no other rose we have 

 ever grown that is so rich in delicious 

 damask perfume. Unlike most other 

 roses, its foliage is exempt from mildew 

 and the attacks of insects or slugs; re- 

 maining healthy, clean and bright, 

 deep green until turned to a crimson 

 color by frost. Strong field grown 

 plants, one year old, ea., 25c; 3 for 60c; 

 doz., $2.25. Twovearsold, very heavy, 

 ea., 35c; 3 for 90c; doz., $3.00. 



PRISCILLA. 



A superb Rose of the Tea class, be- 

 ing a child of that grandest of bedding 

 or out-door roses, Maman Cochet, and 

 is hardy here in northern New Jersey 

 with slight protection in winter. Its 

 habit is exceedingly strong and up- 

 right, like its parent, and possesses 

 the same large, beautiful healthful 

 foliage and is a most profuse and con- 

 stant bloomer. The flowers are of 

 enormous size, remarkably round and 

 full; pure, clear, ivory-white through- 

 out and are delightfully tea-scented. 

 From 2X in. pots, ea.. 20c; doz., $2.00. 



" 4 in. pots, ea., 40c; 3 for $1.00. 



MRS. ROBERT GARRET. 



Hybrid Tea. 



A splendid Rose of American origin and of the great- 

 est value for any purpose. It is better in color than 

 Bridesmaid, larger than La France, sweeter than De- 

 voniensis and more free than Bon Silene. It is of won- 

 derful depth of color, being a glowing shell-like pink, 

 with petals of great substance, elegant in form and 

 marvelously beautiful, whether considered as a single 

 specimen or in a bunch It has not a single defect and 

 too much praise can hardly be bestowed upon it. 



Strong plants, from 4 in. pots, ea., 40c; 3 for $1.C0; 

 doz., $3.50.

MANDA'S HYBRIDS. 



A class of distinct Roses of charming grace and 

 beauty and of creeping habit, trailing over the ground 

 or clinging about the trunks of trees and pillars with 

 delightful effect. Foliage finely cut, thick, leathery 

 and of deep glossy green; flowers of exquisite beauty 

 and delicacy," deliciously fragrant, and borne in the
