Jardins). Extremely vigorous grower; foliage 
shiny, thick, of leathery substance. Flowers

three inches in diameter, opening pale yellow, 
with clusters of bright yellow stamens, which 
gives it a most striking appearance; fragrant, 
and produced in greatest profusion, covering the

yellow Cherokee Rose. Most striking variety of 
the set.

Hoste). The most wonderful grower of the set.

Flowers produced singly on stems; yellow, huff 
in hud, opening to almost white, two or three 
inches in diameter, perfectly double, and of a 
delightful sweetbrier fragrance.

dins). Strong grower, with large green foliage.

when open cream-color; 3 to 3X inches in diam¬ 
eter. incurving toward evening to perfect imita¬

for any purpose. 
NOTE.-These roses have not proven evergreen 
in my garden, but they are very beautiful. Prices 
for the above Roses, 2-year-old plants, 30 cts. 
each, $3 per doz. 
New Climbing Rose 
WILLIAM C. EGAN 
This is a new, distinct and very desirable 
candidate for a position in our list of choicest 
climbing Roses. Being convinced of its many 
excellent properties, I have grown a large stock 
of healthy young plants, and take special pride 
in their dissemination. It. was raised by Mr. 
Jackson Dawson, of the Arnold Arboretum, Bos¬ 
ton, Mass., and is the product of Wichuraiana 
crossed by General Jacqueminot, without any trace of either in the bloom. The. habit of the plant is sub-climbing, but vigorous and healthy, 
with bright glossy foliage. The flower is large and very full, resembling in shape, as well as color, the Souvenir de la Malmaison. Although 
only an annual bloomer, it remains in flower several weeks, and the large trusses of superb bloom are unusually attractive. Mr. Dawson con¬ 
sidered this the best of all his numerous hybrids. It is unquestionably reliable and hardy at the North. Field-grown plants, strong and 
healthy, 2 years, 35 cts. each, $3.50 per doz. 
YORK AND LANCASTER ROSE 
\\ e have at last succeeded in getting a stock of this famous old English garden Rose. Aside from its historical interest, it is really a 
lovely variety, with a vigorous constitution. The flowers are semi-double and strikingly variegated white and red. 75 cents each, $8 per doz. 
NEW HARDY ROSE, FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI 
I his is the most beautiful of all hardy white roses, and the freest flowering, continuing in bloom from June until November. Strong 
budded plants, 40 cents each, $4 per doz. 
We recommend Roses grown on their own roots, but regret to say that it is impossible to get many varieties grown 
that way. About half the varieties of Hybiid Perpetuals otfered in our Catalogue, and all moss roses, are budded plants. 
All other varieties are grown on their own roots.
