The great improvements by hybridization have made the Hollyhock one of the 
most gorgeous of flowers. Almost every shade of color from black to white is 
obtained, the immense spikes being closely set with perfect hemispheres of flowers. 
No plant is more conspicuous or effective among shrubbery, or as a background.

Gladiolus. 
No other class of plants has been received with so much favor within the past 
few years as the Gladiolus. The main reason for this is found in the great im- 
provements which have been made by hybridization. The^flower-spikes, which 
vary from nine inches to a foot and a half in length, are in all shades of color, 
from the softest blush to the most dazzling crimson, variously and most beautifully 
striped and marked, making it the most delicate, and yet one of the most gorgeous, 
of flowers. Our collection and our seedlings are acknowledged to be the finest in 
the country, having invariably received the highest prizes. For a description, see 
Separate List. 
Finest distinct sorts, at $5 per dozen. 
IRoses, 
The Rose needs no praise. I have procured all the new varieties of excellence, 
and can recommend the stock as being in fine condition (grown on their own 
roots), and embracing every desirable class. In addition to the Descriptive List, 
special mention may be made of the Hybrid Perpetual General Jacqueminot as the 
best free-blooming hardy rose; of a similar color to Geant des Battailles (a scar- 
let-crimson), and, beyond comparison, superior in free and healtliy growth and 
bloom. Madame Plantier also desei-ves special note, though an old kind, as being 
very free, and the best pure Double White Rose. La Reine and Baron Provost are 
two old but excellent Roses. Of most kinds we can give plants in pots, when prer 
ferred, thereby avoiding the risk of transplanting. When the choice of varieties is 
left to us, we will give the best plants, and can insure more distinctness of color. 
Standard varieties at 50 cents each; $4.50 per dozen. New kinds, which are 
printed in heavy type, at 75 cents. 
Also a fine lot of Tree Roses, grafted on the Dog Rose, 5 feet high, with splen- 
did stout trunks, at $1.00 to $1.50 each.
