In our estimation these four Roses have no superiors as ever bloomers. Perle des Jardins is 
the best yellow; Bride, the best white; Meteor, the best red; and Catherine Mermet. the best pink. 
Thus you have four distinct Roses, the best in their respective colors, that we can well recom- 
mend. As we grow these in large quantities, we can send out larger and stronger plants of these 
varieties than any other varieties we grow. Price for t he four, one strong plant of each, $1.00. 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
We grow the Chrysanthemum in large quantities here, and the perfection we have attained 
in the culture of this now famous flower is fully attested by (lie numerous premiums we have 
been awarded at (lie various shows all through the country, as well as the universal admiration 
of all who visit, our gardens caq]} Fall when our extensive collection is in bloom. Our Chrysan- 
themums are grown in temporary greenhouses whvrc no flro heat is ever used or forcing in 
any manner ever resorted to. a point that all growers know is essential to the production of vigor- 
ous and healthy plants. Further North where the Chrysanthemum has to be raised through the 
Winter months in greenhouses that of necessity must he arliliclally heated and a high tem- 
perature maintained, cannot have the vigor nor produce as fine results as those raised in a cool 
temperature. To the Southern growers we therefore recommend our plants with confidence, 
knowing that if well grown they will produce the finest exhibition plants, and blooms that will 
prove a credit and reward them for their labor. The wonderful march of improvement in the 
mist few years has necessitated a rigid weeding out of inferior as well as many heretofore con- 
sidered good varieties; and in order to become a successful prize- taker at the shows of the present 
day, one has to keep up with the times by providing himself liberally with novelties and recent 
introductions. 
General Collection of Chrysanthemums. 
The varieties enumerated in this list are all good. All old varieties have been discarded to 
give place to newer sorts of higher merit. Only in eases of much merit have the older varieties
