 ducing flo\\ ers of rare and striking beauty and of delicious fragrance. They are 

 mostly strong climbers, especially valuable for training over porches, pillars or 

 trellises, where they can have suppiort. 



Varieties marked H. are hardy everywhere with slight protection; where marked M. H., 

 they are moderately hardy, and especially valuable for open-ground cultivation south of 

 Philadelphia.

Glorious Rose— Marcchal NicI, M. H. 



The very name of this Rose suggests the 

 sunny South, where it attains a degree of per- 

 fection seldom seen in any Rose. The buds 

 and flowers are superb ; extra large, very double 

 \ ^- and deliciously perfumed. The color is deep 



golden yellow. Blooms with the greatest free- 

 doin. In the North should have very careful protection in 

 open ground during the Winter ; splendid for greenhouse 

 and house culture. In the States where the Winters are mild, 

 this lovely variety cannot be surpassed for general planting.
