We beg to call the attention of our patrons to a notice referring to landscape gardening on page 49 of this 
catalogue. To this notice we may add that our landscape architect has made a specialty of renovating old 
places, making them more beautiful, and, in many instances, saving the owner hundreds of dollars which he 
would otherwise have paid out for unnecessary work and would not have received the same benefit in 
the end. We also take charge of new grounds, laying out of roads and make a sketch. He has also made a 
study of park and cemetery work. A sample of work and references will gladly be furnished on application. 
We should be pleased to answer promptly all questions regarding landscape and other work. 
NOYEETIES IN ROSES 
New Ever-^Ioomlng Rose 
Found at Last. 
LIBERTY. 
An ever-blooming, hardy. Hybrid Tea Rose that possesses a strong, robust constitution and free blooming 
qualities. This wull be a boon alike to the grower who forces Roses"under glass for cut flowers and the one 
who iflants outdoors for summer flowers. The color is magnificent, rich fiery rubj^ with deep crimson tones 
in the depths of the flowers. The petals are covered wnth a rich velvety bloom like those of the '‘Jubilee” 
Rose. From American Gardening': 
“Never has nature yielded to the painstaking hybridist and plant raiser a more beautiful or more 
satislying color than that seen in the new hybrid Tea Rose ‘Liberty,’ which to-day marks the limit of 
gloriously deep, yet bright coloration in a family by no means deficient in warm, rich hues of crimson-red ” 
Price for strong young plants (ready in April), 75c. each ; $7.50 per doz.
