SUPERB WELL-TESTED HARDY HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 



OF RECENT INTKODLJCTION ; 



Earl of Duflferin, Marshall P. Wilder, Mrs. John L,aing. 



All perfect Roses, combining beauty of form, intensity of color, delightful fragrance, with vigorous 

 habit and freedom of bloom. These varieties show in the most conclusive manner the great progress 

 being made in the improvement of the Rose. Attention is directed to the handsome colored plate of 

 the three varieties in the front of this catalogue. 



EARIi OF DUFFERIN. 



One of the finest Roses of recent years. Rich, brilliant, velvety crimson, shaded with dark maroon; 

 large, full, finely formed ; delightful fragrance. A vigorous grower. One of the finest dark roses It 

 should be in every collection. Budded plants. (See cut). 75c 



MARSHALL P. WILDER. 



Raised from Jacqueminot. It is of vigorous growth, with healthy foliage ; flowers large, semi 



globular, full, well-formed ; color beautiful cherry-carmine ; very fragrant. In wood, foliage, and form 

 of flower, it resembles Alfred Colomh, but the seedling excels that famous variety in vigor, hardiness and 

 freedom of bloom. It continues to bloom profusely long after the other Remontants are out of flower. 

 In brief, it may be described as an improved Alfred Colomh, and as good a rose as has been raised by any 

 one. It is undoubtedly the finest of its color. Budded and on own roots. (See cut). 50c.
