^^^HE varieties offered on this page are European } i eductions and it will be noticed that we have secured them from no less 

 i I than twenty different establishments in all j arts of Europe. They represent the highest degree of perfection yet 

 ^m attained in Roses, and as such cannot fail ; o be of interest to every lover of new and rare varieties. Many of the 

 varieties offered below are marvelous. The descriptions may be relied upon as being absolutely accurate. Lack of 

 space prevents us giving our personal opinion of each variety, but let us say that we have discarded all varieties that have 

 not proven themselves to be thoroughly distinct and different from varieties that we already offer. It is true then that 

 this is one of the most interesting pages in this book. The name of the introducer is given after the name of the 

 variety, together with the class to which it belongs.
