Anna de Diesbach.* 



Glory of Paris. 



An offspring of the famous old favorite, La Reine, and 

 also the seed parent of that glorious variety, Paul Neyron, 

 which facts should be effective evidence of its good quali- 

 ties. The color is the most lovely brilhant carmine ; long, 

 pointed buds and large, finely formed, compact flowers, 

 very full and double and delightfully sweet. A vigorous 

 grower and a fine bloomer ; one of the really good Roses.

One of the grandest and most beautiful of all Hybrid 

 Perpetual Roses; the flowers are of immense size and fine

 and borne erect on stout, thick canes ; the color is bright 

 rosy pink. 30 Cts. each ; 4 for $1 ; two-year-old plants, 

 50cts. each.

Beyond question one of the best of Hardy Roses; we 

 recommend it highly for general planting. It is an un- 

 usually vigorous grower, and as free blooming as any 

 variety in the list. Large, finely made flowers almost the 

 size of Paul Neyron ; color cherry pink delicately shaded 

 carmine and blush. Very fragrant. Extra good.
