18 ELLWANGER & BARRY'S 



Triomplie de Luxembourg-, f/'e^. {Hardy, 1836.) Buff rose : large good 

 buds ; of healthy habit : a desirable bedding variety. 50 cents. 



Wal>aii, mod. (E. J/. ^S'ood d- Co., 1891.) "A sport of Catharine Mermet, and 

 resembles it in every respect except in color, which is a rich, bright, clear pink." 

 Judging from the specimens of flovrers sent us, we consider it a very promising var- 

 ety. Small plants ready April 15th. Si. 25 each. 



White Bon Sileue, cig. {F. Morat, 1883.) A sport of the well known Bon 

 Silene. Of a pearly whiteness, vigorous and free flowering. 50 cents. 



CLASS V.-HYBRID TEA ROSES. 



{Rosa Iiidica odc?-ata hybrida.) 



ALL AKE ox OWX ROOTS. 



This is a comparatively new group, flowering asprofusely as the Monthly Roses, produced from 

 crossing Teas with Hybrid Peipetuals : it is yet in an incipient state : within a few years there 

 will, doubtless, be a great many varieties introduced. There has not been opportunity for testing 

 the hardiness of most of the kinds, but they will probably prove quite as robust as the Victor Ver- 

 dier race of Remontant Roses. La France, the oldest variety of the class, is probably more highly 

 prized by connoiseurs than any other Rose, and though none of the new varieties in this division 

 have proved her equal, there will yet be found, we hope, some worthy companions among them. 



Captain Cliristy, mod. or dicj. [Lacharme, 1873.) Flesh color, deepening 

 toward the center ; medium size, sometimes large, full. Ill-shaped flowers are not 

 uncommon, but when the flowers are perfect there are none more admii'able. 50 

 cents. 



Cliesliunt Hybrid, vig. {G.Paul, 1873.) Yvom. Madame de Tartas aud Prince 

 Camille de BoTian. Cherry-carmine, with a shade of violet; flowers large, full, slightly 

 fragrant. A free bloomer in Spring, but not in Autumn ; distinct and fine. 50 

 cents. 



Dr. Pasteur, vig. {Moreau-Rofjert, 1887.) Rosy carmine, a fine clear shade ; 

 flowers globular, finely formed ; free flowering : dark rich foliage. 50 cents. 



DUCHESS OF ALBANY, lig. (TT. Paul &Sons, 1888.) A sport from the 

 well known and popular La France. "While it resembles its parent in several respects, . 

 it is quite distinct in color, being of a rich, deep, even pink tint, and the shape is more 

 finished ; it is equally vigorous, free blooming and fragrant. One of the most im- 

 portant of recent acquisitions for growing in the open air or for forcing, 50 cents. 



LA FRANCE, mod. or free. {Guillotfils, 1867.) Raised from seed of a Tea Rose. 

 Delicate silvery rose, changing to silvery pink; very large, full, of fine globular form; 

 a most constant bloomer. The sweetest and most useful of all Roses ; none can sur- 

 pass the delicacy of its coloring. 50 cents.
