TiQB)yCT0iT, 
N PRESENTING a new edition of our General Catalogue, we wish to call 
attention to the variety and extent of our stock, as well as to its superior con- 
dition. Since the issue of the last edition, we have added to our collection 
very many new and valuable plants of recent discovery and introduction, as 
well as brought forward a number of beautiful species which, while years ago 
found among the finest collections, have through neglect or perhaps extreme 
modern fashions been partially lost sight of. Among these latter e.specially may often be found 
the most charming forms, pos.se.s.sing all the attraction of the latest novelty, together with merits 
established by years of experience in their culture. We have for several years given especial 
attention to the re-introduction of many such deserving and valuable plants to their former 
place in the esteem of the horticultural public, and with gratifying success. 
We are operating extensive tropical nurseries on our plantations in the West Indies, and 
are thus enabled to grow rapidly and to perfection, under most favorable circumstances, many 
things which are .slow and difficult of culture in North America. Our direct connections with 
the most prominent botanical and commercial establishments of Europe, the East Indies, Aus- 
tralia and South America, are also a great advantage in procuring and exchanging rare and val- 
uable stock ; wherefore it may be readily understood how we are in an exceptionally favorable 
way of meeting all demands for new, rare and valuable plants at the most reasonable prices. 
fi l/isit Solicited. 
We invite personal inspection of the stock in our show houses, at New Rochelle. Here are 
constantly many interesting sights, not common to ordinary- nurseries — rare Orchids and tropical 
plants in bloom, grand .specimen Palms and Cycads, a profusion of the finest Roses, etc., etc. 
We are glad to see visitors any day except Sunday, and the Ro.se Hill Nurseries are easy of ac- 
cess from New York. Trains on the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, leaving the 
Grand Central depot (Forty-second street), every hour, pass New Rochelle, and cabs and stages 
for the nurseries will be found at the station on the arrival of all trains.
