PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK— WHOLESALE CATALOGUE— PLANTS. 



NEW HYBRID 

 TEA ROSE. 



"BALDUIN." 



THE color is unique, a very soft, intense carmine-crimson, with deeper 

 shades in the depths of the petals, in color very like "American 

 Beauty." The profusion of bloom is truly marvelous, every shoot 

 producing a flower. It is a grand acquisition to our red Roses. It is invalu- 

 able as an outdoor bedding variety on account of free habit, hardiness, 

 superb color and fine double flowers. Price, from 3 inch pots, $6.00 per 100. 



YELLOW HYBRID 

 TEA ROSE. 



Mile. GERHAINE TROCHON. 



AMONG the many new Roses imported by us of late years there are 

 none, in our opinion, which are liable to have a wider popularity than 

 this. It is an entirely new color in the Hybrid Te"a class, and it has 

 proven hardy in our climate. The best description we could give of the 

 Rose is that given to the Tea Rose " Sunset," which we introduced some 

 years ago and which created a profound sensation. Technically described, 

 it is orange-yellow, with shades of buff, fawn and light yellow; the inter- 

 stices between the petals show depths of coloring approaching what is very 

 frequently seen in our sunset skies, and which originally suggested the 

 name for the " Sunset " Rose. Price, from 3 inch pots, $10.00 per 100. 



Mrs. ROBT. GARRETT. 



A VALUABLE variety for winter forcing. It is a difficult matter to 

 describe the coloring of a Rose; much of the coloring is due to its 

 form and its semi-transparency, and is generated as it were in the 

 Rose itself. A shallow Rose cannot have the beautiful color effects seen in 

 a Rose like Mrs. Robert Garrett, which is of remarkable depth, even in 

 the fully opened flower. Its petals are of great substance, containing more 

 than the ordinary amount of coloring matter. Speaking broadly, the 

 general color effect of this Rose may be described as being a glowing shell- 

 like pink. Price, from 3 inch pots, $6.00 per ico. 



NEW HARDY 

 CLIMBING ROSE. 



MAY QUEEN. 



LIBERTY. 



WHAT has been so long desired, viz.: an ever-blooming, 

 hardy. Hybrid Tea Rose that possessed a strong and 

 enduring rich crimson color, coupled with vigor of 

 growth, robust constitution and free-blooming qualities, has at last 

 been obtained in " Liberty." The color is magnificent, rich fiery 

 ruby with deep crimson tones in the depths of the flowers, covered 

 •with a rich velvety bloom. The fragrance is delightful, all- 

 pervading and refreshing. This grand Rose was exhibited at all 

 the leading horticultural exhibitions throughout the country, and 

 has received numerous medals and certificates. {See cut.) Price, 

 from 3 inch pots, $2.00 per doz.; §15.00 per ico. 



KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA. 



A HYBRID Tea Rose, soft pearly white, lightly tinted with 

 lemon in the centre, just enough to relieve the white, re- 

 markably fragrant, a strong, healthy grower, with bold, 

 beautiful foliage. The habit is free ; the beautiful, perfectly- 

 shaped flowers are borne in profusion on long, graceful stems, so 

 that it will be invaluable for cut flowers. Professional florists 

 have been quick to perceive the great value of this peerless 

 variety, and it is now more eagerly sought after than almost any 

 Rose on the market. {See cut.) Price, from 3 inch pots, $6.00 

 per 100. 



THIS fine climbing Rose, May Queen, was obtained by crossing Mrs. 

 DeGraw with the hardy running Rose, Wichuraiana. It is a vigor- 

 ous, erect-growing climber, well furnished with handsome foliage 

 and bearing great numbers of lovely, lyge double roses. The blooms 

 average over three inches across, are delightfully scented and borne in 

 large clusters all over the bush. Color, coral pink, very bright 

 and handsome, and an early and abundant bloomer. The bush 

 is entirely hardy and particularly recommended for all situations 

 where hardy, free-blooming, climbing roses are wanted. Price, 

 from 3 inch pots, $8.00 per 100. 



NEW HARDY EVER- 

 BLOOMING ROSE. 



THE BURBANK." 



THIS valuable new Rose is a cross between Hermosa and a 

 seedling of Bon Silene. It proves hardy everywhere with 

 slight protection. Burbank is a Rose wonderfully improved 

 in size, brilliancy of color and perfection of form, with Hermosa's 

 valuable habit of blooming all season. Every little plant com- 

 mences to bloom as soon as it starts from a cuttiDg. Flowers rich 

 shell-pink, inclining to crimson; full, double, reflex petals. A 

 compact grower, Foliage always free from rust, mildew or any
