BOUGERE.* 

 Old and Famous. 



Any one who has seen this grand old sort growing in 

 open ground, will agree with us that it deserves the 

 brightest words of praise we can give it. Like Bon Si- 

 lene it is old, having been introduced in 1832. Since 

 then it has been tried and found to be of rare value 

 for general planting. The flowers are unusually large, 

 deep, full and double ; they are supported on long stiff 

 stems, and are produced in bountiful abundance 

 throughout . the growing season. In color they are 

 bronze rose or violet crimson, delicately shaded with 

 lilac; exceedingly sweet; remarkably hardy. 15 cts. 

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



CHARLES LEGRADY.* 

 A Fine Bedding Bose. 



This splendid Rose is almost unexcelled for general 

 planting, particularly for bedding purposes ; color fine 

 chamois red, richly shaded with violet crimson; very 

 sweet and a constant bloomer ; we recommend it as 

 extra fine. 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,
