PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— WHOLESALE LIST OF PLANTS. 



Hardy Ever-blooming Climbing Rose. 



Climbing Clothilde 

 Soupert ♦ ♦ . 



An invaluable addition to our list of 

 hardy Roses of climbing habit. It has 



withstood a temperature of twenty de- 

 grees below zero. It blooms most pro- 

 fusely on growths made the previous 

 season, producing hundreds of clusters of 

 perfect flowers. The color is French 

 white with a distinct centre of silvery rose, 

 flowers perfectly double even in the hottest 

 weather. It is the healthiest climbing 

 Rose we know, has never had any disease 

 and should succeed everywhere, {See cut.) 

 Plants from open ground, ready October 

 20th, $2.00 per doz, $12.00 per 100. 



The Crimson gambler Rose 



It is of rapid, vigorous growth; plants in our 

 grounds attained a height of fifteen feet the past 

 season. The flowers are produced in trusses 

 pyramidical in shape, good specimens measuring nine inches 

 from base to tip, and seven inches across, fairly covering the plant 

 from the ground to the top, so that it is one mass of glowing 

 crimson. The profusion of bloom is marvelous, over three hundred 

 blooms having been counted on one shoot. 



THE YELLOW RAMBLER. AGLAIA. 



Light yellow, quickly changing to light straw color, blooms 

 very freely in clusters. It is semi-double, very fragrant, entirely 

 hardy. 



THE WHITE RAMBLER. THALIA. 



This variety bears clusters of pure white flowers, which are 

 deliciously fragrant. The flowers remain on the plant a long time 

 — from three to five weeks. The plant is perfectly hardy, equal in 

 this respect to the Crimson Rambler, and where one is planted 

 the other should be also. 



THE NEW PINK RAMBLER ROSE, PSYCHE. 



A cross between Crimson Rambler and Golden Fairy. In growth 

 and habit it mC:ch resembles the Rambler. The flowers are pro- 

 duced in large clusters, and are 2 to 2i inches across when fully 

 expanded. The color is white, suffused with salmon-rose and 

 pink, with yellow base to the petals. A real companion to Crim- 

 son Rambler. Price, for the four " Rambler " Roses $2.00 per 

 doz., $12.00 per 100. Plants ready Oct. 20th. 



THE MEMORIAL ROSE. Rosa Wichuraiana. 



The grandest plant for cemetery decoration in existence. It 

 grows flat on the ground, like an ivy, and blooms in grand 

 abundance throughout July and intermittently the balance of 

 the season; pure white, sweetly fragrant flowers, with a golden 

 yellow disc. It is perfectly hardy and if planted this fall should 

 bloom next season. Price, strong plants from open ground, 

 $2.00 per doz., $12.00 per 100. Ready Oct. 20th. " ^ 



NEW RED MEMORIAL ROSE 



Similar to the above in all respects, except that the flowers 

 are a brilliant carmine red. A very useful plant by itself but of 

 increased value as a companion for the White Memorial Rose. 



Price, $3.00 per doz., $20.00 per 100. Plants from open 

 ground ready Oct. 20th. 



Assorted Roses ForFa11 Anting. 



Plants from open ground, ready October 20th. 



NEW HARDY YELLOW ROSE, 



SOLEIL D'OR OR GOLDEN SUN 



This is the first of a new race of Roses styled " Pernetiana." 

 It is a cross between the Persian Yellow and the hybrid per- 

 petual Antoine Ducher. It retains considerable of the character 

 of Persian Yellow, the bark of the wood being reddish, the 

 thorns very fine; the foliage more ample, large, full, globular 

 flowers. The coloring is superb, a blending in each flower of rich, 

 chrome yellow, old gold, orange, reddish gold, and nasturtium 

 red. We offer large, 2-year plants, at $7.50 per doz.
