CULTURE. 



Eoses of tire Tea and monthly class are not 

 altogether liardy north of Virginia, yet with 

 careful banking of the earth high around the 

 plant most kinds do well. The Hybrids, Mosses 

 and Clusters are most hardy, still some protection 

 is very beneficial to these if it only be a covering 

 of loose straw or leaves. Coarse stable manin-e 

 is the best mulch for winter and summer. We 

 would recommend that north of Virginia 

 selections should he made from the Hybrid 

 Perpetual class, and especially where complete 

 hardiness and large plants are desired. Spring 

 is the best time for planting Roses. The soil 

 should be rich and well drained, with careful 

 culture, to insure success. Annual pruning is 

 very beneficial. 



BRIDE.— Ihe Bride is pure w?::te of large size 

 and most perfect form. This varietj' has a 

 most delitvous fragrance, and is a strong 

 growing, frci^ blooming rose, either for sumtoer 

 or winter flowering.
