New Roses in Sight. 
We are propagating at Rose Hill Nurseries, for dissemination as soon as ready, some most remarkable Roses, 
brief mention of which follows. We are sure that these Roses will mark a great advance. 
A New Class of Roses— the Carman Collection of Rugosa Hybrids, and the 
Dawson Hybrid Rugo-Jacqueminot, "Arnold." 
These new Roses form a distinct class unlike any type ever known to cultivation, containing, in a measure, the 
strength and beauty of the popular Mosa t ug-osa (from Japan) and the color and fragrance of some of our best garden 
Roses. They are wonderful results of careful cross-fertilization— the work of vears by Mr. E. S. Carman, editor of 7Iie 
Rural Neu'- Yorker, and Mr. Jackson Dawson, of the Arnold Arboretum. We own the entire stock, and hope to send 
them out during 1895. Sets of ten distinct varieties will be offered at $10; 5 varieties for $S ; single plants at Si. 50 each. 
Orders for these Roses received and entered now. 
Our New Pedigree Rose, "Belle Siebrecht." 
We will offer to the public in 1895 the new pedigree Rose, " Belle Siebrecht," the result of years of patient work by 
one of the best rosarians in the world. It shows many points in advance of any existing varieties of its class in color, 
vigor and general good qualities. It is not sent out for the public to try ; we have been subjecting it to the most .severe 
tests, and are now fully satisfied that it is the best florist's Rose in e.vlstence. The color is of the peculiar deep rose 
which has made "American Beauty" famous, but much deeper and vet brighter, and with a wonderful glow, and 
shading to brighter pink when e.xposed to the fullest light. Unlike " Beauty," its only tint of purple Is when it is first 
cut, when the tinge of a reddish violet adds brilliaiicv; as it fades, the tint becomes a lighter and brighter pink. 
The plant has broad and bright foliage, and the bud is of the much-desired long, tapering shape. Orders booked 
now, to be filled in rotation, at $1 each, $10 per dozen.
