ELLWANGER & LARRY'S 
Triomplie <le Luxembourg, free. (Hardy, 1886.) Buff rose; large good buds: of healthy habit; a desirable bed¬ 
ding variety. 50c. 
Triomphe de Fernet pere, vig. (Pemetpere, 1891.) Bright red; buds long. Small plants. 50c. 
Waban, mod. (K. M. Wood A Co., 1891.) A sport from Catharine Mermet, and resembles it in every respect except in 
color, which is a rich, bright, clear pink. With some growers this variety has proved a success, while with 
others it has not done well. It often grows one sided. 50c. 
White Bon Silene, vig. (F. Murat, 188S.) A sport from the well known Bon Silette. Of a pearly whiteness, vigorous 
and free flowering. 50c. 
CLASS V.—HYBRID TEA ROSES. 
(Rosa Indica odorata hybrida.) 
ALL AKE ON OWN BOOTS. 
This is a comparatively now group, flowering as profusely as the Monthly Roses, produced from crossing Teas 
with Hybrid Perpetuals; it is yet in an incipient state ; within a few years there will, doubtless, lie a great many 
varieties introduced. There has not been opportunity for testing the hardiness of most of the kinds, but they will 
probably prove quite as robust as t he Victor Verdler race of Remontant Hoses. La France, the oldest variety of the 
class, is probably more highly prized by connoiseurs than any other Rose, and though none of the new varieties in 
this division have proved her equal, there will yet be found, we hope, some worthy companions among them. 
Augustine Guinniseau, Dig. (Guinniscau, 1889.) Flowers white, slightly tinted with flesh. Sometimes called White 
La France. Valuable for forcing. 50c. 
Brighton Beauty, pig. Bright red flowers, produced in great profusion all summer; suitable for bedding. 50c. 
Captain Christy, mod. or dwf. ( Laeharme, 1878.) Flesh color, deepening toward the center; medium size, gome- 
, times large, full. Ill-shaped flowers are not uncommon, but when the flowers are perfect there are none more 
admirable. 50c. 
Cheslnmt Hybrid, vig. (G. Paid, ISIS.) From Madame de Tartas and Prince Camille de Bohan. Cherry-carmine, 
with a shade of violet; flowers large, full, slightly fragrant. A free bloomer in spring, but not in autumn; 
distinct and fine. 50c. 
I)r. I’asteur, vig. (Moreau-Bohert, 1887.) Rosy carmine, a fine clear shade; flowers globular, finely formed; free 
flowering; dark rich foliage. 50c. 
DUCHESS OF ALBANY, vig. (IP. Paid <k Son, 1888.) A sport from the well known and popular La France. 
While it resembles its parent in several respects, it is quite distinct in color, being of a rich, deep, even pink 
tint, and the shape is more finished; it is equally vigorous, free blooming and fragrant. One of the most 
important of recent acquisitions for growing in the open air or for forcing. 50c. 
LA FRANCE, mod. or free. (GuiUot fils, 1807.) Raised from seed of a Tea Rose. Delicate silvery rose, changing to 
silvery pink; very large, full, of fine globular form; a most constant bloomer. The sweetest and most useful 
of all Roses; none can surpass the delicacy of its coloring. 50c. 
La France of ’80, vig. ( Moreau-Bohert, 1889.) Flowers very large; brilliant red; buds long. Very free 
flowering. 50c. 
Madame Andre Duron, vig. ( Bonnaire, 1887.) Flowers large, bright red; produced in great abundance. A 
promising variety. 50c. 
Madame Caroline Testout, vig. (Fernet Dueller, 1890.) Flowers large, very double; silvery rose; free 
bloomer. 50c. 
Madame Seliwaller, vig. (Bernaix, 1886.) Pink; large, fine; flowers freely and abundantly. 50c. 
METEOR, vig. (Bennett. 1887.) Rich, dark, velvety crimson, retaining its color well; a constant bloomer; healthy, 
with no tendency to mildew; admirable for forcing. 50c. 
Pierre GuiUot, mod. (GuiUot, 1879.) Deep red, tinged with crimson; full; well-formed, fragrant. 50c. 
Pink Rover, vig. (IF. Paid <t Son, 1890.) Flowers very pule pink, deeper in the center, large, full and expanded; 
exceedingly sweet; buds long, clean and handsome. Of semi-climbing habit. 50c. 
Puritan, vig. (Bennett, 1886.) Flowers largo, often badly formed; pure white, sweet; fine foliage. 50c. 
Re i ne Olga de Wurtemburg, vtg. (Nabonnand, 1881.) Brilliant red ; very large; semi-double. 50c. 
Souvenir of Wootton, vig. (Cook, 1888.) A red Hybrid Tea from seed of Bon Silene fertilized with Louis Van 
Houtte; plant vigorous with fine foliage; free blooming; buds of good size, on strong shoots ; of a rich red 
color and extremely fragrant. If the buds were longer, this would be a very valuable variety for forcing. 50c. 
Viscountess Folkestone, vig. (Bennett, 18S7.) Creamy pink; large, full sweet. 50c. 
White Lady, mod. (W. Paul A Son, 1889.) Flowers large, beautiful semi-cupped form ; creamy white. 50c. 
William F. Bennett, vig. (Bennett, 1886.) Beautiful glowing crimson, similar to Gen. Jacqueminot, with a bud 
similar to Niphetos; very fragrant; a very free bloomer, but only a moderate grower. 75c. 
CLASS VI.—POLYANTHA ROSES. 
(Rosa Polyantha.) 
ALL ON OWN ROOTS. 
This is an interesting- group from Japan, of comparatively recent, introduction. The foliage and flowers arc 
both very small, the latter being produced in paiiicles. The ongiual varieties are non-remontant, but what we offer 
are crosses or hybrids, natural or artificial, between the single flowered Polyantha and varieties of other classes. 
Teas, etc. They are ever blooming, of slender growth, produce extremely beautiful little flowers, and are quite as 
hardy as the Hybrid Noisettes and Hybrid Teas. Their character of blossoming in panic-led clusters, gives them a 
distinctive interest, and they are much esteemed. As an edging for a bed of monthly roses they are very effective 
and useful. We are greatly pleased with them, and strongly recommended them to all devotees of the Rose. 
Rlanclie Rebatel, dwf. (Bernaix, 18S9.) Carmine shaded with rose; flowers small, produced in clusters of forty 
to fifty blooms. 50c. 
CECILE BRUNNER, mod. (Mme. Ducher, 18S0.) A hybrid from Polyantha simplex fertilized by a Tea. Salmon 
pink, with deep salmon center; very small, full, delicately scented; admirable in bud and open flower. An 
exquisite miniature rose for floral work. Highly commended. 50c.
