PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— WHOLESALE CATALOGUE— PLANTS. 



(iipD SUflflEH-BLOOflp HOSE. 



SOUVENIR DU PRESIDENT CARNOT. 



Unquestionably the finest Rose of its color introduced in a 

 decade. Whether considered from the standpoint of the com- 

 mercial cut-flower grower or from its fitness for garden work, 

 this Rose is without a superior, and it is doubtful if it has an 

 equal. The growth is vigorous, the foliage dark green and very 

 handsome, but the glory of the variety is in its flower. It is 

 very large, both in the bud and in the expanded flower, double 

 to the centre, and opens beautifully. The coloring is nearer like 

 Devoniensis than any Rose on the market at the present time, 

 but it is lighter and approaches nearer to a white. Technically 

 described, it could be called a rosy flesh, very soft in the centre, 

 and shaded with a lighter flesh at the end of the petals. The 

 bud is as long as Niphetos, but not quite so pointed, and is 

 very much fuller at the base. It has taken front rank already 

 in the metropolis. Price, plants from 3 inch pots $6.00 per 100. 



NEW EVER-BLOOMING ROSE, 



"MME. JULES GROLEZ". 



One of the handsomest and most valuable Roses in our list of 

 new varieties. The buds are beautiful in form, the open flowers 

 arge, full and finely formed. The color is an attractive China Rose, passing to clear, 

 rich, satiny pink. Regarded as the best of the new Roses in Europe, it has sustained 

 its reputation in America. {See cut.) Price, plants from 3 inch pots $6.00 per 100. 



NEW HYBRID TEA R0SE."MAGNAFRAN0." 



A cross between Magna Charta and Safrano. It combines the hardiness and vigor 

 of the former with the free-blooming habit and delightful fragrance of the Tea Roses. 

 The flowers closely resemble Magna Charta in size and fullness, but are more double; 

 color, clear deep Rose. It is a strong, healthy grower, a constant and abundant 

 iloomer. {See cut.) Price, plants from 3 inch pots $8.00 per 100 



TEA ROSE "SUNRISE." 



MME. JUI.ES GROLEZ. 



The most gorgeous Rose of its class yet introduced. 

 This has made a sensation in England and taken 

 first honors wherever shown. In close bud form it 

 shows the high, brilliant colors seen only in the "Austrian Copper" scarlet and yellow. As it opens, 

 the color deepens, the scarlet turning darker red, the yellow to orange and copper, the inside of the 

 petal, golden yellow. The open Rose is large, perfectly double and of grand form. Price, plants 

 from 3 inch pots $10.00 per 100. 



Ever-blooming Rose, "GOLDE> GATE". 



A glorious variety which was too long in partial obscurity, but which has recently 

 attracted wide attention and is now very popular. It is a 

 monthly ever- blooming sort, strong growing, fine flower stems 

 and used extensively for winter forcing. The color is creamy 

 yellow, with pink edges. Price, plants from 3 inch pots $6.00 

 per 100. 



HARDY PINK EVER-BLOOMING ROSE, 



"MAMAN COCHET 



Although several years have elapsed since we introduced this 

 grand pink Rose to our customers, it still ranks among the 

 highest for summer blooming in the garden. It has the 

 necessary substance to withstand our hot summers and is hardy 

 enough with slight protection to live out during the 

 winter. The buds are a beautiful pink ; the color is held 

 in the open flower. The flower stems are long, the buds 

 and flowers are held erect and it is delightfully fragrant. /.
