PURITAN. 



A ciarming Hybrid Perpetual Rose, the result of a cross between Mabel Morrison and Devoniensis. The habit 

 is "robust and the -wood straight and stiff, and carries the foliage well up to the flower. It appears to be a very valua- 

 ble acquisition for forcing and out-door blooming. The blooms are borne on every shoot, are remarkably firm in tex- 

 ture, and remain perfect several days after being cut. The flowers as they open are of a rich cream color, which 

 ■changes to pure white in the expanded flower. In fragrance the flowers resemble the Magnolia, are perfect in shape, 

 and sho'w all the good points of an exquisite rose. 



Strong plants 50 cts. and $1.00 each.
