New Hybrid-Perpetual Rose 



Mme. Albert Barbier 



This remarkably distinct Hybrid-Perpetual variety in its habit 

 of flowering is as free as many of the popular Hybrid-Tea varieties, 

 its seed parent is Frau Karl Druschki, from which it has inherited a 

 strong, clean, vigorous growth, its buds are long and well formed of 

 a pearly white color suffused with soft, salmony flesh and develop 

 into large, full double imbricated flowers of splendid form which 

 as they expand, show a golden apricot suffused centre. A gem 

 in every respect. $1.50 each. 



HYBRID-PERPETUAL ROSES 



The varieties listed below are unquestionably the best that 

 can be selected in the Hybrid-Perpetual class which, before the 

 development of the Hybrid Teas, was the most popular type for 

 garden planting, and even now they dare not be overlooked, but 

 should be used extensively in conjunction with the other sorts, and 

 especially so in localities where the hardiness of the Hybrid-Tea 

 varieties has not been established.

Rose Species 



Rosa Hugonis. This species, from China, is unlike any other 

 Rose. It is of shrub-hke habit of growth and naturaUy forms 

 symmetrical bushes about 6 feet high, and the same in diameter, 

 and while not suited to plant in the Rose border, it is an in- 

 valuable subject when planted in connection with other shrubs 

 or as single specimens in the garden.

 sprays early in May, after it has finished flowering it remains 

 an attractive decorative bush for the balance of the season; 

 perfectly hardy. Strong two-year-old plants, $1.00 each; 

 $10.00 per doz.; $75.00 per 100.

 growth to Rosa Hugonis but growing from 6 to 10 feet high with 

 attractive, brilliant, single, deep blood-red flowers, in June.

 inches across, really a double flowering Hugonis with better 

 foliage and lasts in flower for a much longer period. $1.50 each.

The beauty of the Moss Rose consists in the delicate mossy 

 covering which surrounds the buds, and gives the opening flowers 

 a unique appearance. 

 Blanche Moreau. Large pure white. 

 Crested Moss. Rose color, beautifully crested. 

 Henry Martin. Fine crimson, very vigorous. 

 Salet. Large full double, light rose.

 Roses, these climbing forms produce a large crop of flowers in 

 June, with a liberal scattering of blooms throughout the season.

 except in favored positions, or with protection; especially adapted 

 to covering rafters, etc., in greenhouses,or for outdoor culture in the 

 South.
