THE Polyanthas are a lovely and distinct class of Ever- 

 blooming Roses, distinguished by their dwarf, bushy 

 habit of growth, medium size and veiy double flowers, 

 which are delightfully fra giant, and areborne in large 

 clusters and masses, frequently seeming to cover the whole 

 plaut with a sheet of bloom. They * re good, vigorous growers 

 and constant and most profuse bloomers, very pretty and 

 highly recommended for general planting, also for edges and 

 borders to beds of the larger growing varit ties. Will survive 

 the Winter in favorable situations, with mual protection.

 50 cts.; $1 per dozen; two-year-old plants, 30 

 cts. each ; $3 per dozen.

The finest Rose you have is the one you say the least 

 about. I refer to Marie Pavie{ Polyantha). It is the sweetest, 

 most remarkable bloomer I have ever seen, and as hardy 

 as Hermosa. When you get out your new catalogue say a 

 kind word for it. You sent it to me years ago as a pre- 

 mium ; otherwise I would not have found it.

The Moss Rose is a strong, j orous grower, perfectly hardy, 

 and therefore justly esteeinec as very desirable for outdoor 

 culture in open ground. Most varieties bloom but once in 

 the season, and usually not the first year, but the flowers and 

 buds are very large and handsome. Moss Roses like rich 

 ground. Like the Hybrid Perpetuals, they are highly valued 

 because of their permanency. 



Price, 30 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts. ; 7 for $1 ; two- 

 year-old plants, 35 cts. each; $3.50 per dozen.

Sirs :— I received Roses yesterday in fine condition, and 

 am very much pleased with them. They are decidedly the 

 nicest plants I have ever had (and I have ordered a great 

 many). Will send order in a few days for Dahlias and 

 Chrysanthemums. In the future I shall certainly order all 

 my plants from you. Very truly, Mrs. Fred N. Tate.
