THE WICHURIANA ROSES. 



SOUTH OR AX 



PERFECTION. 



PINK ROAMER. 



A class of distinct Roses of 

 such charming grace and beau- 

 ty as to make them general 

 favorites. They are of creep- 

 ing habit, trailing over the 

 ground or clinging about the 

 trunks of trees and pillars 

 ^ , with delightful effect. The 



^T^,/, flowers are of great beauty and 



■'s^ ' " delicacy: deliciously fragrant 



and borne in the greatest pro- 

 fusion. 



I^landa's Triumph. Double 



flowers, two inches across, pure 

 white, borne in clusters. 



Pink Roamer. In flower it 

 possesses the characteristics of 

 the Sweet Briar, which is un- 

 doubtedly one of its parents, 

 while its vigorous growth and 

 handsome, luxuriant foliage 

 are those of the Wichuria 

 type. Its beautiful flowers are 

 single, rich pink with promin- 

 ent orange red stamens, and very fragrant. 



South Orange Perfection. A free rambler, covered with perfectly formed, double flowers, one and one- 

 half inches diameter, of a soft blush-pink changing to white. It is a gem, both in plant and flower. (See cut). 



Universal Favorite. A strong grower, producing long branching shoots and dense green foliage. The blooms 

 are very abundant, of large size, double, of a rosy-pink, like that of Bridesmaid.

 ly. It grows ten to fifteen feet in a season, and is densely furnished with a dark green, glossy foliage, forming 

 a dense blanket, alvrays clean and perfect and with but few thorns. The flowers are single, pure snowy-white, 

 with bright golden yellow discs and with the fragrance of the Banksia Roses. They are borne in clusters and 

 in such numbers as to fairly envelop the plant. It blooms later than most roses and con- , ^ / 

 tinues a long time. Succeeds everywhere, but peculiarly appropriate for cemetery planting. Yi-i
