ow, edge of petals often lined with 
rose; well formed, of good habit, 
and in every respect a most charm- 
ing sort. 
Marechal Niel.* A rose so 
famous as to really need no des- 
cription. Its magnificent golden 
yellow buds are worn the woVld 
€ over, and floral work without 
Marechal Niel is usually regarded 
as lacking a proper finish. The

tities ; as a climber it is unequalled ; rapid 
in growth, graceful and has fine foliage.

fuse bloomer, delightfully perfumed.

mon pink, passing to rosy flesh color, deli- 
cately shaded with blush ; beautiful buds. 
Niphetos.* Graceful and immense buds

of this peculiar and elegant form, or that 
are so enduring.
