Marchioness of Dufferin — A new rose 
which has attained much popularity.

pink, suffused with yellow at the 
base of petals; a very strong rapid 
grower; considered one of the finest. 
Magna Charta — Bright pink, suffused 
with carmine; very largo, full and 
fragrant with magnificent foliage. A 
free bloomer. For the earliest deep 
color is still the best. 
Marshall P. Wilder — Raised from the 
seed of the General Jacqueminot. It 
is of vigorous growth, with healthy 
foliage; flowers large, semi-globular, 
full, well-formed; color cherry-car- 
mine. In wood, foliage, form and 
flower, it resembles Alfred Colomb. 
Marchionees of Lome — An exceedingly 
rich rose color, shaded in the center 
with vivid carmine; cup-shaped; 
sweet and full. Buds unusually 
handsome. Free flowering. 
Mrs. John Laing — New. As a budding 
rose this is undoubtedly one of the 
best varieties yet introduced, being 
hardly' ever out of bloom all summer. 
Color a beautiful shade of delicate 
pink; of large size and very fra- 
grant. It is also a good forcer from 
January onwards.

rosy' pink, outer petals shaded with 
pale flesh, white at base of petals; 
flowers large, of perfect inbricated 
form and freely produced, flowering

Merveille de Lyon — Pure white, shaded 
and marked with satin; flowers very 
large, double, and of beautiful cup 
shape. A seedling from Baroness 
Rothschild. A superb variety. 
Meteor — As a dark crimson perpetual 
blooming rose, this ranks as one of 
the best yet introduced of any class. 
It is especially valuable for summer 
and fall, blooming either in the 
greenhouse or in open ground, and 
where there is a demand for fine 
roses in summer this variety will be- 
come a great favorite. 
Madam George Bruant — (White) — A 
seedling from the Japan Rose — Rosa 
liugosa and Tea Rose — Sombrieul. 
From these it gets exquisite sweet- 
ness and its everblooming character. 
Considered by' the best judges to be 
of great value. 
Paul Neyron — This magnificent rose, by 
far the largest variety in cultivation; 
very' double and full of beautiful 
deep rose color, and delightfully fra- 
grant; borne upon vigorous, upright 
shoots in great abundance, through- 
out the entire season. We recommend 
this variety very highly for general 
planting as it is calculated to give 
more satisfaction to the masses than 
any other known variety.
