GLORY OF MOSSES (BUDS) 



The Moss Rose is a strong, vigorous grower, PER- 

 FECTLY Hardy, and therefore justly esteemed as very 

 desirable for out-door 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 ; they remain in bloom a long time, and 

 are highly prized wherever beautiful Roses are known. 

 Moss Roses like rich ground and are much improved in 

 beauty and fragrance by liberal manuring and good cul- 

 tivation, but they bear hardships and neglect well, and 

 always bloom profusely. 



The price of Moss Roses is 20 cts. each ; S f°^. ^^'

 each ; set of 14 for $4.^0, by Express. See over.
