The Bride 



There is no other white Rose more 

 satisfactory- than the Bride. When 

 planted in the open ground, the flowers 

 are sometimes found to be delicately 

 tinted %\'ith pink, making it exceedingly 

 attractive. The buds and flowers are 

 unusually large, well formed and de- 

 Hciously perfumed. It is of a strong and 

 healthy growth, and a profuse bloomer. 

 Its blooms are of the most suitable 

 form and quality for cut-flowers. 



Bridesmaid 



This variety is valuable for forcing 

 and does finely in the open ground ; a 

 sport from the old and popular pink 

 Tea, Catherine Mermet, but of a fine, 

 clear dark pink, much deeper and more 

 constant in color than Mermet. 



MADATVTF! CAMTT.LE. For amateurs, 

 there is no equal, as it is a strong 

 grower, producing flowers of the 

 largest size and not liable to disease. 

 The color is a pale rosy flush, shaded 

 ■^\-ith salmon and lavender. 



COMTESSE RIZA DU PARC. This mag- 

 nificent Rose has many admirere; the 

 color is coppen.' rose, -nith tints and 

 shades of soft blush. 



PRINCESS HOHENZOLLERN. This variety is a 

 strong and vigorous grower, with foliage of beau- 

 tiful dark green color, and extra-large flowers, 

 well formed. The fragrant flowers are often 

 borne in clusters. Color bright, deep satmy red, 

 with pink center. 



LUCIOLE. Extra-large, full, double flowers of 

 delightful fragrance. Outer petals clear cherr\-- 

 red, center elegantly shaded with rich golden 

 yellow. 



MARIE LAMBERT, or SNOWFLAKE. Large, dou- 

 ble creamy white flowers are produced in 

 marvelous profusion. We consider this one of 

 the best and freest -blooming Roses, and recom- 

 mend it particularly for outdoor planting. It is 

 unusually hardy and grows ver\- vigorously. The 

 foliage is ver\- substantial, of attractive dark 

 green color and practically free from disease. 

 An excellent variety in everj' respect. 



MEDEA. Large, perfectly double flowers of deep, 

 rich lemon-yellow color with creamy yellow cen- 

 ter. Buds and flowers are of most exquisite 

 shape and are considered by many enthusiasts as 

 the best j-ellow Tea Roses. 15 cts. each, 50 cts. 

 for 4, $1 for 9. 



MET A. A superb sort of unique color — crushed 

 strawbern,' suffused ^-ith saff'ron; base of petals
