/. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER 



Duchess of Albany. Superb, large full flower, rich 

 deep pink and very fragrant. A sport of La France, 

 which it somewhat resembles, being equally vigorous 

 and free-flowering, and splendid either for out-door 

 blooming or for forcing. 



La France. A general favorite and deservedly pop- 

 ular. The flowers are large and beautiful, both in bud 

 and when expanded; very full, lovely silvery-rose 

 shaded pink, and delightfully fragrant. 



IMdIle, Helen Gambier. See Special List. 



IMeteor. A splendid Rose, especially valuable for 

 the intense brilliancy of its color. Both in bud and 

 flower it is large and finely formed, full and very 

 double, in color a rich velvety crimson which is ex- 

 ceedingly effective and striking. A constant and very 

 profuse bloomer. Is the better for a slight protection 

 in winter. Unfortunately it is without perfume. 



Climbing Pleteor. A perpetual blooming climber, with 

 flowers resemblmg Gen. Jacqueminot in form and 

 color, a rich brilliant crimson, but a more vigorous 

 grower and very much more profuse, producing a 

 great number of superb flowers on immense stems. 

 Fine for verandahs, etc., and it is just the Rose for 

 training in the conservatory or the bay window, being 

 also a choice winter bloomer. ^ 



IMme. Caroline Testout. Highly valued by reason of 

 its extra large size, elegant form and charming color. 

 T he flowers are globular and very double, of a brilliant 

 satiny-rose, deepening at the centre to clear pale red; 

 petals are beautifully edged and bordered with clear 

 silvery rose. Very fragrant. 



IMme. Abel Chatenay. Exceedingly free-flowering 

 and continuous in bloom; the buds are exceedingly 

 beautiful, opening spirally, semi-double flowers of 

 medium size, with recurved -petals; in color a rich rosy- 

 carmine shaded and tinged with salilDon deepening 

 towards the base of petals. Foliage bronzy green.

MAD. PERNET-DUCHER. 



Mme, Pernet-Ducher. At all times a fine Rose. It is 

 remarkably profuse in bloom and the flowers are very 

 handsome; lovely buds of elegant form, long and 

 pointed, rich sulphur yellow changing to ivory-white 

 with golden yellow centre when expanded. 



Mrs. Robert Garrett. See Special List. 



Wrs. W, C. Whitney. Remarkably strong, vigorous 

 gr-^wer and exceedingly free-flowering. Flowers very 

 large and full, of a beautiful shade of clear, deep pink, 

 very attractive in form, with a distinct, sweet fra- 

 grance. 



Souv. de IMme. Eugene Verdier, Extra large flowers 

 of the tnost exquisite form, borne very freely on 

 strong, erect shoots; and in color a deep creamy- white 

 shading to pale yellow. It is a grand Rose, very strong 

 grower and free bloomer and one that will please 

 everybody. 



SOUV, DE PRES. CARINOT. I may say with the ut- 

 most confidence that this is one of the best Roses that 

 has been introduced for a long time. It possesses such 

 great merit in both flower and plant that it has won 

 universal praise and admiration, and has been awarded 

 prizes and certificates of merit almost without number. 

 A rapid and vigorous grower, a constant and exceed- 

 ingly profuse bloomer, with handsome foliage that is 

 healthy andclean. The stems are long and stiff, bearing 

 large, perfectly formed blooms of an exquisite sea- 

 shell pink, the petals being edged with ivory-white; 

 a charming flower in every way. Buds are long and 

 of Niphetos shape. In addition to its other merits is 

 that of perfect hardiness. Where most of the Teas 

 and Hybrid Teas are cut down by frost, Sonvenir de 

 Pres. Carnot remains perfect to the tip. It is a grand 

 bedder and a superb hardy garden Rose, producing 

 out-of-doors as fine flowers as when forced under glass, 

 blooming freely during the whole summer and autumn 

 up to frost. 



Triomptie de Pernet Pere. Large flowers, long and 

 tapering buds, clear magenta, sometimes turning to 

 bright crimson; highly tea-scented and very enduring, 

 retaining its exquisite beauty for a long time. Splen- 

 did for out doors and its blooms are fine for cutting. 



Essex Co., N. J„ April 18th, 1898. 

 I have received order 4607 in good condition, and am well 

 satisfied with it. They are good well rooted plants. 



George Vogel. 



Ontario, Canada, Feb. 21st, 1898. 

 My purchases of past years have been satisfactory in every 

 way, and I have much coufldence In you on account of the 

 honesty and uprightness that has characterized your deaMngs 

 with me. L. G. Sinclair.
