New Ever-blooming Tea Roses-continued, 



sometimes bright rosy crimson, occasionally pale light rose. 

 In the open ground it grows to perfection, producing crop 

 after crop of its beautiful flowers in unbroken continuity, 

 from early Spring until late in Autumn. Of all the Teas 

 there are none better (see cutj. 



BRIDESMAID. 



One of the Finest Outdoor Kose^ 



A delightful new Tea Rose, a sport from 

 f the old and popular pink Tea, Cath- 

 arine Mermet, but of a fine, clear, diik 

 pink, much deeper and more constant in 

 color than Mermet ; very desirable ; does 

 exceedingly well in the open ground and is 

 also valuable for forcing (see cut).

LA PRINCESS VERA. 



A Splendid Outdoor Rose. 



During the past season, we had in our trial grounds sev- 

 eral hundred varieties of Roses. For strong, clean growth, 

 freedom and constancy of bloom and beauty of flower and 

 color, this variety was one of the few selected as the best. 

 Without doubt this is a grand Rose for general planting, 

 particularly for bedding in the open ground. The flowers 

 are large, tinely made and open beautifully ; when fully 

 open there appears to be a flower within a flower, so 

 perfect is the form. The color is rich ivory white, shaded 

 and veined with fine coppery yellow, and delicately pen- 

 ciled with pale blush. A truly grand and beautiful Rose, 

 and one that by virtue of its great excellence ranks among 

 the best in cultivation. 



BON SILENE. 



A Grand Old Rose. 



This remarkable Rose was introduced in 1839 and up to 

 this time no new variety has superseded it, a fact that bears 

 ample testimony of its valuable qualities. It is superb in 

 every way. Perhaps the most noted feature is the iinmense 

 size and beauty of its buds, which cannot be surpassed for 

 bouquets and decorative purposes. The color is deep rose. 



An extremely beautiful new Tea Rose; the buds 



are fine, large and tapering, of excellent form and 



substance; extra-large, v*ell-filied flowers, opening 



nicely ; color rich silvery pink, delicately shaded with 



fine rosy blush ; deliciously tea scented ; very double and 



attractive ; we consider this one of the best new Tea 



Roses ; a good compact grower and constant bloomer 



(see cut).
