BRAISWICK Rose Gardens, Colchester. 
Abbreviations used : — Vig., denotes vigorous habit of growth ; rob., robust habit of growth ; mod., 
moderate habit of growth. 
Our dwarf roses are budded so close to the roots of the stock on which they are worked 
that they are practically on their own roots, this being an immense advantage for fleet planting, 
which we strongly advocate. 
As the season advances, customers are respectfully invited to 
supplement their orders with a few extra varieties, in case the 
stock of any of the sorts required should have been exhausted ; 
if no supplementary sorts be named we consider we may be 
allowed to substitute equally good sorts of similar colour. 
Hybrid Perpetuals. 
These are a very beautiful class of rose. They are perfectly hardy, and cannot be too 
highly recommended. To those who grow for exhibition they are indispensable. When grown 
for garden ornamentation hard or close pruning is not recommended. The best exhibition sorts 
are marked thus * 
Only those sorts which arc priced in the column for standards and 
half-standards can be supplied as such. They are grand plants.
