ROSE GARDEN AT MOUNT HOPE NURSERIES 



ROSES WHICH GROW IN BUSH FORM 



AUSTRIAN OR YELLOW ROSES 



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 flow- 

 ers are produced from the terminal shoots of the old wood. 



Austrian Copper, rig. Flowers single, brilliant 

 coppery red, outside of petals dull gold. Very 

 elFective. 



Austrian Yellow, vip. Single flowers, rich golden 

 yellow. 



Harrison's Yellow, /ree. Golden yellow; medium 

 size, semi-double. A freer bloomer than Persian. 



The Lyon Rose. Flowers of large size, moder- 

 ately full, globular in form, of a superb shrimp 

 pink color, and fragrant; the buds are large, 

 long, and coral red ; novel and entirely distinct. 

 SI. 00 each. 



Persian Yellow, free. Bright yellow, small, nearly 

 full. It is desirable to grow more than one 

 plant, and by priming one this year in the usual

 crops of flowers may be had. 



Soleil d'Or, vig. Large, full and globular, fra- 

 grant ; buds conical shaped ; color varying from 

 gold and orange yellow to reddish-gold, shaded

 habit, fine bronze green foliage, glossy and 

 absolutely immune to the attacks of mildew;

 orange, striped with brilliant scarlet bars, toning 

 to simflower yellow when fully expanded; the 

 deepest colored of any yellow rose ; flowers pro- 

 duced in great abundance. !^1.00 each. 



MOSS ROSES 



This is a favorite class with everj^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 atten- 

 tion by the increased size and beauty of the flowers. They are 

 all very hardy. The foliage is generally somewhat crimpled, 

 and has mostly seven leaflets. 



Blanche Moreau, vig. Pure white, large, full, and 

 of perfect form; the buds and flowers produced 

 in clusters and freely furnished with a deep 

 green moss. A valuable variety. 



Common Moss, free. Pale rose; very beautiful 

 buds; a great favorite. 



Comtesse de Murinais, vig. White, tinged with 

 flesh. 



Crested Moss, free. Deep pink colored buds, sur- 

 rounded with a mossy fringe and crest; free 

 from mildew. A fragrant, very beautiful rose.
