GENERAL JACQUEMINOT"Siill a glory and a@ grace 
GENERAL JACQUEMINOT. H. Perpetual. (1853.) 4 - 5 feet. (Zhak- 
me-noh.) : 
 ’Twas a Jacqueminot rose that she gave me at parting, 
Sweetest flower that blows, ’twas a Jacqueminot rose 
In the love-garden close with the swift blushes starting, 
’Twas a Jacqueminot rose that she gave me at parting.” 
Says Dean Hole, in his “Book About Roses,” 1865—"General Jacqueminot, 
for so many summers THE Rose of our gardens, is still a glory and a grace, its 
petals, soft and smooth as velvet, glowing with vivid crimson, and its growth being 
free and healthful. I well remember the time when we welcomed this conquering 
hero, in his brilliant uniform, as being invincible.” 3 for 4.50 each 1.75 
GLOIRE de GUILAN. (Damask.) 4 - 5 feet. 
Recommended by G. S. Thomas, England, who writes—‘Collected by Miss 
Nancy Lindsay in the Caspian provinces of Persia, where it is used for making 
Attar of Roses. It is a delightful, sprawling shrub with fresh green leaves and 
particularly clear pink fragrant blooms unlike any other we have seen.’ Spring 
blooming. Among the prettiest of the roses planted this spring on the road 
above the cabin. 5 (Supply limited) 2.25 
GLOIRE de DUCHER. (Hybrid Perpetual.) (1865.) To 7 feet. 
Rated “superlative” by G. S. Thomas, who enthuses this time with almost 
American fervor—‘Magnificent vigorous rose of rather loose habit, with huge, 
broad-petalled, fully-double blooms of refulgent crimson-purple, showing many 
different tints.” (Supply limited) 2.25
