 grown plants, $2,00 per do?,, ; young plants, $1.00 per doz, 



Pink Romer. (No. 2.) 



This variety shows undoubted traces 

 of descent from the Sweet Brier, both 

 in the color and the shape of the blossom 

 and in its exquisite fragrance. The 

 single flowers are over two inches in 

 diameter, a bright rich pink, with a 

 large, silvery-white centre and orange 

 red stamens, producing a most charm- 

 ing effect. 



Double White " Memorial 

 Rose." (No. 3.) 



(Manda's Triumph.) 



This is the gem of the collection, and 

 may well be called the Double "Memorial 

 Rose." as it preserves the color of the 

 parent, with i ts characteristics of growth 

 and foliage, but the flowers are double 

 and very fragrant They are produced 

 in clusters of from twelve to eighteen 

 flowers on each cluster on small side 

 shoots, literally covering the plant and 

 standing well above the foliage.

 changing to white, about one and one- 

 half inches in diameter. The blossoms 

 are, if anything, more freely produced 

 than on the preceding, and are more 

 double, perfect rosettes in shape. This 

 is a very pretty variety and entirely 

 distinct from the others.

 per doz.; $12.00 p»T 100. Ffrom 3
