La France. 



Perhaps no Rose is better known or more highly valued 

 for general planting, both in open ground or under glass, 

 than La France. It is a Hybrid Tea, but usually classed 

 with the Hybrid Perpetuals; very beautiful in form and 

 color; an early and constant bloomer, producing a wonder- 

 ful profusion of buds and flowers all through the growing 

 season ; it is exceedingly sweet and handsome, and altogether 

 one of the loveliest and most desirable Roses one can plan! ; 



both flowers and buds are of grand size; the color is a 

 lovely shade of peach blossom, changing to amber rose, 

 elegantly tinged with crimson; delicious tea fragrance, 

 exceedingly sweet, very full and wonderfully beautiful ; com- 

 mences to bloom soon after planting out, and continues 

 until stopped by freezing weather. Moderately hardy, but 

 requires protection in Winter. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts.; 

 8 for $1.
