35c. 
Marquise de Castellane—Carmine rose, a bright 
and permanent shade; very large; very full, not

Budded plants. 
Marshall P. AVilder—Flowers are large, semiglobu- 
lar, full and of good substance, color bright, 
scarlety crimson, richly shaded with maroon; very 
fragrant. Should be planted more generally, as its 
ease of growth, freedom of bloom and fine fiowers 
make it a most desirable rose. 
Merveille de Lyoii—Beautiful pure white, tinted 
satiny pink in centre; cup shaped. 
Mrs. ClCA^elaud—A rose of remarkable beauty, and 
in habit of growth, size and color of flowers it 
resembles Baroness Botbschild. Flower is of im¬ 
mense size, double and full. Color is bright clear 
pink. 
Mrs. «T. H. Laing' — This we consider one of the 
finest roses of its class. It is very free flowering, 
commencing to bloom early in the season, and con¬ 
tinues to bloom jjrofusely until late autumn. Color 
a soft delicate pink, wTth a satin tinge; very fra¬ 
grant. 
Mrs. K, G. Shermau Crawford—This is one of the

fragrant. Plant blooming from summer to late 
autumn. 35c.

hybrid class, young plants in the nursery rows 
blooming almost without intermission from June 
to late October. 
Perle des Blanches—Constanfand profuse bloomer; 
large, white, very double flowers. 
Persian Yellow — Dark golden yellow. The best 
variety of its color; entirely hardy. It is difficult 
to imagine a finer sight than this when in full 
bloom, covered with its bright yellow blooms, 
which are borne along the ripened wood so that 
they appear in sprays. It must not be pruned 
much, if any, unless to cut out dead or diseased 
branches. 
Pierre Netting—Very dark, blackish red, richly 
shaded with fine violet crimson; extra large full 
flowers; delightfully perfumed. 
Prince Camille de Rohan—This is a magnificent 
rose, celebrated the world over for its large, hand¬ 
some, fragrant flowers and the freedom with which 
they are produced. The color is a deep, rich, velvety 
crimson, passing to intense maroon, shaded black; 
at a short distance they appear really black. It is 
the nearest black. Although the same claim is 
made for others, this variety is the darkest.

ingly large shell-shaped petals. Color cherry red. 
A splendid variety. 
Unique, or AVhite Proveiice—A^’ery large, a beau¬ 
tiful old variety adapted for bed.

of soft satiny pink distinctly striped and dashed

it a valuable and desirable variety for cutting.

the season magnificently formed buds and flowers, 
wdiich in color are a dark velvety crimson, the equal 
of any rose in cultivation.

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; 
vigorous, free blooming and fragrant. One of the 
most important of recent acquisitions for growiug 
in the open air or for forcing.
