SINGLE ROSES. 
The many articles on Single Roses 
in the horticultural papers have caused 
considerable attention to be directed

decorative in the flower-garden, and 
so beautiful for vases and bouquets in 
the cut state, that every garden should 
possess some of the varieties.

ite. The flowers, which are freely pro¬ 
duced, are very distinct, being of an 
exceptionally bright, dazzling orange-
