Hippolyte BarreaU No. 79 (Pernet-Di>cher).— 

 — — — ^— — ^— — — This variety is one of the best 

 introductions for many years. It is a distinguished Rose 

 in every particular. It is a strong grower, with large, 

 heavy foliage. In open ground it is hardy with protec- 

 tion ; blooms as freely as a Tea Rose, but in other 

 respects has all the characteristics of a Hybrid Perpetual. 

 The flowers are extra large, full and double, with petals 

 well arranged. Both in bud and when fully expanded, 

 they are extremely beautiful ; the fragrance is delicious. 

 The color is unusually rich — a deep carmine crimson, 

 shaded velvety maroon. As a free-blooming, hardy 

 variety for open-ground culture, this Rose is hard to 

 equal. We recommend it strongly. 20 cts. each ; 3 

 for 50 cts. ; 7 for $1 ; two-year-old plants, 40 cts. 

 each.
