brilliancy, the abundance of its bloom, and the great length of time the flowers remain on the plant 

 without falling or losing their brilliancy, are qualities which will make this new claimant for admiration 

 an assured favorite. For verandas, walls, pillars, and fences it is a most suitable plant. If grown in 

 beds and pegged down it produces marvelous heads of bloom, or it can be grown in bush form and thus 

 become a most striking object. We planted this rose out doors, along with Hybrid Perpetuals and 

 other hardy roses, and the plants came through the winter, even better than many of the hardy var- 

 ieties, remaining fresh and green to the very tips. But it is not only for out-door use that it is 

 valuable ; it can also be employed most satisfactorily for decorating in-doors when grown in pots. We 

 have had plants in flower in our houses and have exhibited them in bloom ; wherever shown they have

not failed to excite admiration. We are satisfied that this is the greatest rose novelty of recent years;, 

 and we have therefore made arrangements to propagate it on the largest scale, hoping to place it in the

 SI. 00, by mail postpaid — enables everyone in the country to get plants upon the most favorable terms. 

 Purchasers of this novelty in quantities will receive prices upon application. 



One of our customers writes (April 23, '95) as follows : " It may interest you to know that the small plants 

 (2j^-inch pots I I g-ot from you last fail have stood the severe winter, and are making- a nice growth. I planted 

 them out in the open border, without any mulching or care of any sort. The thermometer has been as low as six 

 degrees below zero, and with the alternate freezing and thawing, it shows well for the hardiness of Crimson 

 Rambler." 



A correspondent of the Garden and Forest (April 24, '95) says ■ " A remarkably handsome specimen of Crim- 

 son Rambler Rose is now in bloom in one of the greenhouses belonging to H. H. Hunnewell, Esq., Wellesley, 



The trees arrived in fine shape, and my gardener says they are the finest lot he ever saw ; they certainly are much unlike 

 any I ever bought before, and I therefore can with safety voice his sentiments. Thanking you for your promptness —
