La Princess Vera. (Tea.) Rich, ivory white, 
shaded and veined with coppery yellow. 
Louis Philippe. (Bengal.) Rich, velvety crim¬ 
son. While not as valuable for bouquets as some 
varieties, as the petals soon drop after the flowers are 
cut, it is the most showy and satisfactory dark red 
Rose we have for gardens and grounds. It makes a 
large, vigorous bush, and there is scarcely a time dur¬ 
ing the entire year when it is not covered with bright 
red flowers. There are always flowers, and nearly 
always quantities of them. 
Louis Richard. (Tea.) Coppery rose, the cen¬ 
ter sometimes deep red. 
Luciole. (Tea.) Carmine-rose, tinted with saffron- 
yellow ; buds long and well-shaped. 
Mad. Bravy. (Tea.) Creamy white, large, full, 
of symmetrical form and great fragrance. 
Mad. Camille. (Tea.) Large, very double and 
full ; rosy flesh, changing to salmon-rose. 
Mad.deVatry. (Tea.) Red, shaded with salmon. 
A choice Rose of bright color and good form in bud 
and flower. 
Mad. de Watteville. (Tea.) Salmon-white, each 
petal bordered with bright rose, like a tulip. 
Mad. Elie Lambert. (Tea.) Large, globular, 
well-formed ; rich creamy white, tinted with yellow 
nad bordered with rosy flesh. 
Mad. Joseph Schwartz. (Tea.) Large, globu¬ 
lar flowers, very full and sweet; color pure white, 
the edge of petals tinged with carmine. The flowers 
have the exquisiteness and delicacy of its parent, 
Duchesse de Brabant. One of the most satisfactory 
here. 
Mad. Lambard. (Tea.) Large and full flowers, 
varying from rosy salmon to rosy flesh. 
Mad. Plantier. (Hybrid China.) Pure white, 
above medium size, full flat form. A spring bloomer; 
very strong and vigorous; excellent for massing or 
hedges. 
Mad. Welche. (Tea.) Pale yellow, with cop¬ 
pery yellow center ; large and full ; distinct. 
Magna Charta. (Hybrid China.) Bright, clear 
pink, flushed with violet-crimson ; very sweet ; flow¬ 
ers extra-large, fine form, double and full. A spring 
bloomer. Makes a large, vigorous bush, and while it 
blooms but once a year, the size, beauty and num¬ 
ber of its flowers make it well worth growing. Well 
adapted here. 
Malmaison. (Bourbon.) Flesh, shaded with fawn; 
large, full, of flat form. 
Marechal Niel. (Climbing Noisette.) Deep yel¬ 
low ; very large, very full, globular form ; delightfully 
fragrant ; the finest of all yellow Roses. In the 
North this Rose is of delicate constitution, and requires 
careful treatment to get good results. Here it is at 
home ; a strong, vigorous grower, producing freely 
its magnificent flowers at all seasons in great abun¬ 
dance. It should have the first place in every collec¬ 
tion. 
Marie Ducher. (Tea.) Rich salmon-yellow, with 
fawn center ; large size, very full, somewhat flat ; 
very double and sweet. A strong-growing, free- 
blooming sort, of excellent habit. 
Marie Van Houtte. (Tea.) Pale yellow, the 
edges of petals often lined with rose. 
Meteor. (Hybrid Tea.) Rich, dark, velvety 
crimson, retaining its color well; very handsome in 
the bud. 
Mignonette. (Polyantha.) Large cluster of per¬ 
fectly formed miniature Roses; pink, changing to 
white. 
Papa Gontier. (Tea.) Dark, carmine-crimson, 
changing to a lighter shade in the open flower; 
buds very fine. 
Pearl Rivers. (Tea.) Large, ivory white, shaded 
with a clear rose. Beautiful peach-red buds. 
Perfection des Blanches. (Hybrid Noisette.) 
Pure white flowers, full and double, very fine ; a con¬ 
stant bloomer. One of the best of its class, which 
includes Coquette des Alpes, Coquette des Blanches 
and Perle des Blanches. 
Perled’Or. (Polyantha.) Nankeen-yellow flowers, 
in large clusters. A small growing sort. 
Perle des Blanches. (Hybrid Noisette.) White, 
of the same general character as Perfection des 
Blanches. 
Perle des Jardins. (Tea.) Canary yellow ; large, 
full, well-formed flowers ; a good sort, but the prefer¬ 
ence must be given to Etoile de Lyon, which it much 
resembles. 
Prince Albert. (Hybrid Perpetual.) Beautiful 
bright crimson ; very large, full and fine. 
Safrano. (Tea.) A delicate and beautiful tint of 
salmon and apricot-yellow, which is always bright 
and clear, and does not fade or shade off into dull and 
undesirable tints, as is the case with so many kinds. 
One of the most exquisitely colored of Roses, and 
exceedingly beautiful in the bud. In this latitude it 
makes a vigorous, strong bush, and bears an abun¬ 
dance of flowers at all seasons. One of the best. 
Sombreuil. (Tea.) Creamy white, often tinted 
with pink ; large, full and well formed. 
Souvenir d’un Ami. (Tea.) Rose, tinged with 
salmon ; very large, full and highly perfumed.

ruddy copper ; large, full and well formed.

large, good in the bud ; desirable. 
White Bon Silene. (Tea.) Like the well-known 
Bon Silene, except that the color is white. 
Woodland Margaret. (Climbing Noisette.) 
Medium-sized white flowers of fair quality, sometimes 
tinged with blush. A constant bloomer and vigor¬ 
ous climber.
