GLEN SAINT MARY NURSERIES 
Roses 
Isabella Sprunt Rose (see page 32) 
Etoile de Lyon. (T.) Beautiful chrome-yel¬ 
low, deepening to pure golden yellow at the 
center ; the flowers are very large, very double 
and full, and delicately fragrant. Unequaled 
among the yellow Roses in this region, except 
by Marechal Niel, which it much resembles. 
In the North it is styled a rival of Perle des 
Jardins, but is much larger and more satisfac¬ 
tory than the latter here. A vigorous, lusty 
bush ; blooms profusely at all seasons. One of 
the best. 
Exposition de Povins. (H.P.) Bright velvety 
red ; very full and double and exceedingly fra¬ 
grant. Strong grower, and a desirable variety. 
Ferdinand Batel. (H. T.) Varying color from 
pale rosy flesh on yellow nankeen, to yellow 
nankeen-orange. A fancy-colored Rose ; quite 
distinct and pretty. 
Fortune’s Double Yellow. (C. T.) Sulphur- 
yellow, edged rose. Flowers large, single and 
open. Very pretty and odd. 
Francois Levet. (H. P.) Rosy pink, deli¬ 
cately shaded with cherry-red. Handsomely 
formed flowers, very full and double and nearly 
as large as Paul Neyron. Good grower. 
General Jacqueminot. (H. P.) Large, globu" 
lar flowers of a rich crimson*scarlet color. A 
favorite Rose of its class. 
Giant of Battles. (H. P.) Bright crimson 
flowers of medium to large size ; double, full 
and fragrant. 
Gloire Lyonnaise. (H. P.) The only yellow 
Hybrid Perpetual j it cannot be called deep 
yellow, but rather a pale shade of chamois or 
salmon-yellow, deepest at center, and some¬ 
times passing to rich, creamy white, finely tinted 
with orange and fawn ; the flowers have all the 
beauty of Tea Roses ; large and full, and de¬ 
lightfully sweet.
