there, so they are exceptionally good specimens at this time. All 

 own-root with the exception of Emile Gentil, which is budded on 

 privet. 



Eduard Andre. Flowers very double, hose-in-hose type, rose 

 in tone, with deep rose buds. Ridgway terms are: Tourmaline 

 Pink to Laelia Pink, Deep Purplish Vinaceous buds. Very free in 

 flowering, medium early, quite dwarf in growth. Fine bushy 



Emile Gentil. Lemoine describes this as bright cobalt blue. 

 Fine double, extra large flowers. Clusters are dense and pyramidal 

 in form. By Ridgway it is Dark Lavender to Light Vinaceous 

 Purple to Deep Vinaceous Lavender in the bud. When open the 

 color is Dull Lavender without. Light Dull Bluish Violet to Deep 

 Lavender marked at the throat with white, within. Very unusual 

 and beautiful. Stocky 3-foot plants, budded on privet. Plant 

 deep when resetting $2.00 



Mme. Casimer Perier. A floriferous. creamy double white. Al- 

 ways dependable and covered with plume-like blooms $1.50 



Madame Lemoine. Fine double white, not so creamy in effect 

 as the above, especially in the bud stage. Somewhat late, and very 

 long lasting. Large trusses. My stock of this is very large, and 

 will be too heavy to ship long distances unless bought with this 

 in mind. Four-foot bushes, well trained and branched, will give 

 fine effect first year after planting. A bargain to those who are 

 willing to pay shipping charges $2.00 



President Grecy. Soft blue, tremendously large, oftimes meas- 

 uring a foot in length and almost as much in breadth. Very 

 double flowers which produce a decidedly blue effect when planted 

 near pink and lilac toned sorts. Bushes of this same size as those 

 preceeding, and sold with same understanding $2.00 



Viviand-Morel. Big trusses of small individual florets. Double 

 to semi-double. In early stages of development the buds are deep 

 purple with wine cast, but change rapidly to lighter shades. Upon 

 opening the flowers take on a bluish appearance. According to 

 Ridgway: Buds Deep Hellebore Red to Tourmaline Pink; when 

 expanded, outside Argyle Purple tinged with Light Pinkish Lilac, 

 inside a medley of Light Pinkish Lilac, Light Lobelia Violet and
