The Moss Rose is a strong, vigorous grower, perfectly hardy, 

 and therefore justly esteemed as very desirable for outdoor 

 culture in open ground. Most varieties bloom but once in 

 the season, and usually not the first year, but the flowers and 

 buds are very large and handsome. Moss Roses like rich 

 ground. Like the Hybrid Perpetuals, they are highly valued 

 because of their permanency.

 year-old plants, 35 cts. each; $3.50 per dozen.

 unusually large flowers, produced in clusters; distinct flat 

 form and delicious fragrance. Numerous varieties have beeu 

 offered as White Soupert that are not entitled to this distinc- 

 tion, but in this variety imported from Germany we have the 

 genuine White Soupert, identical in every way with Clotilde 

 Soupert, except in color, which is ivory white. This grand 

 variety is not offered elsewhere, and is a valued addition to 

 the Soupert family, (seepageSO) exceedingly popular owing 

 to their free and continuous blooming qualities, hardiness 

 and varied colors, 



Strong plants, 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for $1. 

 Two-year-old plants, 30 cts. each. 



The finest Rose you have is the one you say the least 

 about. I refer to Marie Pavie (Polyantha) . It is the sweet- 

 est, most remarkable bloomer I have ever seen, and as 

 hardy as Hermosa. When you get outyour new catalogue 

 say a kind word for it. You sent it to me years ago as a 

 premium ; otherwise I would not have lound it.
