New Hybrid Tea Rose, Tisconntegg Folkeatone. (See degcription on page 7.) 
NEW ROSE, AMERICAN BEAUTY. 
This new Rose of American introduction has attained the greatest popularity in 
the shortest time, and created the greatest excitement of any new Rose ever offered 
in this country, and this without any special attempt to advertise it, the introducers 
relying on its great value, which is apparent at a glance. It belongs to the Hardy 
Hybrid Perpetual class, but it blooms almost constantly as the Teas. It has proved 
to be one of the very best for greenhouse culture, and there is no doubt but that it 
is equally good for out-door culture. It Is a strong, vigorous grower, and a very 
free bloomer. The buds are extra large, very full and double, and exceedingly 
sweet. The color is a dark rich crimson, and most exquisitely shaded. The flowers 
are very lasting after cutting, keeping fresh and bright from one to three weeks. 
Small plants, flO rents. Large sized plants, 50 cents. See cut on page 0. 
NEW TEA ROSE, Comtesse de Frigneuse.- (Golden Pearl.) 
In color Comtesse de Frigneuse is charming. In freedom of bloom second to 
none, with finely colored leafage. The buds are long and pointed and highly per¬ 
fumed, not unlike Niphetos in form, and of good size. The color is delicate canary 
yellow, with softer shade on inside of petal. It forces finely, and its buds are much 
sought after. I recommend this Rose to the amateur as an excellent bedder, and to 
the florist as a Winter bud producer. Try it. 
Xhlrty-fiTc cents. (See cut on page 10.) 
NEW TEA ROSE, SOUVENIR DE VICTOR HUGO. 
Souvenir de Victor Hugo Is a bright China Rose, with copper yellow center, ends 
of petals suffused with carmine. A charmingly beautiful combination of coloring, 
and each color blends nicely with the other. This variety will take rank with the 
best, and is a Rose of decided merit. It is not Improbable it will prove useful for 
forcing. The evident relationship to Countess de la Barthe assures us a free bloomer, 
and in size and length of bud it is the equal of the best teas. Thirty cents.
