New Polyantha Rose 

 " Clothilde Soupert." 



This very beautiful variety is entirely distinct 

 from all other Polyantha Roses, the flowers being 

 nearly as large as Boule de Neijie, which it very 

 much resembles in shape. They are of a pearl white 

 shaded at the centre with silvery rose, and are pro- 

 duced in the greatest profusion. 

 Strong 3 inch pots, §1.50 per doz.; §10.00 per 100. 



New Rose. 

 Augustine Guinoseaux. 



The While La France. 



Another distinct sport from that popular variety, 

 "La France," with which it seems to be identical in 

 habit, form and vigor, hut in color it is a delicate 

 blush at the centre, growing lighter and lighter 

 until along the edges it is almost a pure white. 

 3 inch pots, §3.00 per dozen. 



American Beauty. 



3 inch pots, §10.00 per 100. 



"WABAN." 



A RED MERMET. 



This very valuable rose originated at the Waban 

 Conservatories of E. M. Wood & Co.. Natick, Mass. It 

 is a sport from Catherine Mermet, and identical with 

 that variety in every characteristic excepting color, 

 which is a rich deep bright pink ; it sustains the same 

 relation to its parent as Duchess of Albany does to La 

 France. The only objections to C. Mermet is its fre- 

 quently pale insipid color in cloudy weather, expe- 

 rience has shown that the Waban retains its deep rich 

 color in all kinds of weather ; it will without doubt, 

 prove to be as valuable as The Bride, which is also 

 a sport from the same fine variety. 



It has already received the SILVER MEDAL of the 

 Massachusetts Horticultural Society ; a Cerif icate 

 Of Merit from the Pennsylvania Horticultural So 

 ciety, also from each of the other socities of this coun- 

 try and Canada, where it has been shown.
