H. S. WILEY, CA YUGA, N. Y. 
Paniculata — A native of Japan. A beautiful and rapid growing climber 
which in a very brief time, will cover any ordinary veranda. The flowers are' 
small, pure white and delightfiilly fragrant, and are borne in enormous masses, 
almost concealing the foliage. Entirely free from blight, and regarded as a 
great acquisition. 
Henryi — Continuous bloomer, beginning with the earliest and holding on 
with the latest. Flowers large, of a beautiful creamy-white with reddish- 
chololate anthers. Art cannot produce a picture corresponding in any degree 
to the wealth of beauty found in the flowers of this variety. Especially de- 
sirable. June to October. 
Jackmannil — This is, perhaps, the best known of the fine perpetual 
Clematis, and should have credit for the great popularity now attending this 
family of beautiful climbers. The plani is free in its form of growth and an 
abundant and successful bloomer, producing flowers until frozen up. The 
flowers are large, of an intense violet purple, remarkable for its velvety rich- 
ness. Though raised in 1S62 — since which time many new varieties have been 
raised and introduced — the Jackmannii has no' superior and very few, if any 
equals. July to October. 
Madame Edouard Andre First seen in this country at the World's 
Fair at Chicago, flowers large, abundant and a beautiful purple. Beyond 
doubt the finest of its class. 
Miss Bateman — One of the most charming of the spring flowering 
hybrids, having large white flowers with chncolate-red anthers, and somewhat 
fragrant. Any of above strong 2 year roots, 60c. each ty mail. 
LILACS. 
Nothing has a more charming effect than the diflrerent varieties of Lilacs. 
Their early bloom and fragrance make them very desirable. I note a few 
choice varieties. 
Charles X. A rapid grower, shining leaves, trusses of bloom large, color 
reddish purple. 
Jasckea. Similar to the old variety. 
Japonica. A Japan variety, flowers creamy white. 
Ludwlg Spaeth. Distinct dark purplish red, the finest of its class. 
Michael Buchner. Dwarf, very double, color pale lilac, very distinct, 
fine. 
Any of the above fine 2 to 3 ft. plants, 50c. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses. 
Our Roses are not little tiny pot plants, but large, strong 2 ft. plants. 
Nearly all on own roo's. 
This class of roses is admirably suited for garden culture, for the forrnation 
of Rose beds, hedges and permanent plantations, where hardy varieties of 
Roses are desired. They are of easy culture, and luxuriate in a deep, rich 
soil. They are benefited by a mulching of leaves or strawy manure placed 
around the roots in the fall of the year. Prune according to the habit of 
growth, cutting back close all weak shoots, and shortening the long canes to a 
convenient length. 
Prices on H P. Roses 30c. each, $3.00 per 10, $20.00 per 100.
