TEA ROSES— Continued. 



MADAME HONORE DEFRESNB * 

 A Golden Yellow Rose. 



Golden yellow is a color not often found in Roses This 

 superb variety is valuable because of its large, full, double 

 flowers, which are pure golden yellow, and its freedom of 

 bloom and strong healthy growth in open ground. Really 

 one of the sweetest and best Roses. 15 cts. each ; two-year- 

 old plants, 30 cts. each. 



MAD. HOSTE.* 

 A Popular Rose. 

 Extra-large flowers and superb buds, very full 

 and delightfully perfumed; color soft canary 

 yellow, deepening at centre to pure golden yel- 

 low, beautifully flushed with pale amber; edges 

 and reverse of petals creamy white ; excellent 

 for garden or pot culture and is particularly val- 

 uable for forcing for cut flowers; is a good, 

 healthy grower, blooming quickly and continu- 

 ously in open ground or house. 15 cts. each ;

 amber; immense egg-shaped 

 buds, broad shell-like petals

 ceedingly sweet. After care-

MADAME RIVOY.* 

 Looks like a Hybrid Per- 

 petual in Flower and 

 Foliage. Is Hardy. 



In this grand old variety 

 we have a Rose of no ordi- 

 nary excellence. It is enti- 

 tled to a place among Ever- 

 blooming Roses equal to 

 that which General Jacque- 

 minot takes among Hybrid 

 Perpetuals. Indeed it is not 

 unlike a Hybrid Perpetual 

 in the extra-large, full and 

 loosely-formed double flow- 

 ers, enchanting fragrance, 

 intensity of color, large 

 handsome foliage, and ex- 

 treme vigor of growth ; it is 

 hardy with slight protection, 

 a quick, constant and pro- 

 fuse bloomer, and for outdoor culture 

 cannot be excelled by any Rose of its 

 color. The flowers are produced in won- 

 derful abundance upon long stiff stems, 

 and in color may be described as a rich 

 crimson scarlet; very bright and effec- 

 tive. We doubt if any of our customer- 

 have ever seen this lovely Rose, and it i- 

 for their benefit, that all may secure one 

 of the finest and best Roses grown, th..: 

 we call special attention to it by our truth- 

 15 cts. each ; two-year-old plants, 30 cts. each. 



STRIPED TEA ROSE, LA GRANDEUR. 



La Grandeur.* 



A Beautifully Striped Tea Rose. 



We consider this lovely variety one of the best, if not the 

 best striped Rose of any class. The stripes and dashes of 

 white stand out in bold relief against the soft rosy carmine 

 background, which at the base of petals deepens into pale 

 violet purple, producing a most lovely effect, surpassing in 

 beauty any Rose we know. Apart from the odd coloring of 

 the flowers, this is a grand Rose for open-ground culture, 

 being a remarkably strong healthy grower and a free and con- 

 tinuous bloomer. The flowers are large, full and very double. 

 We give this variety prominence because of its strong beauty 

 and high merit. 15 cts. each ; two-year-old plants, 30 cts. each. 



Varieties marked with an asterisk (*) can be furnished in two-year-old plants at 30 cts. each; these plants, owing to the 

 size, cannot be sent by Mail, and will be sent by Express at purchaser's expense. 



MADAME JEANNE CUVTER.* 

 New Tea Rose. 



After thoroughly testing this new Rose, we recommend it 

 as a satisfactory variety of more than ordinary merit. It does 

 splendidly in open ground, where it grows very vigorously ; 

 produces with great freedom its fine, large, full and fragrant 

 flowers. They are especially attractive in the bud state, in- 

 deed they equal the buds of the finest cut- flower Roses. The 

 color is fine salmon rose, passing to clear glossy pink, shaded 

 with rich carmine. An extra-good Rose. 15 cts. each; two- 

 year-old plants, 30 cts. each.
