PAUL NEYRON. Hei' Majesty. An English rose of the best type ; a rank grower and a free bloomer ; very fragrant. John Hopper. Bright red, with carmine center ; large and full ; a good bloomer. Jules Margottin. Deep brilliant rose ; very large, full and fine. Lady Mary Pitzwilliam. Another English rose ; large and of finest form ; delicate flesh-pink. Mad. Gabriel Liiizet. Pink ; very large and fra- grant ; as an exhibition rose it stands at the head of the list. It has led all other roses in England for five years, and when better known will be a leading variety in this country. Mervellle de Lyon. Pure white ; flowers very large, double and of a beautiful cup shape ; a seedling of Baroness Rothschild, and much like it, but larger. Mabel Morrison. White, sometimes tinged with blush ; a free bloomer. Mens. E. Y. Teas. Carmine-crimson; highly scented. Mrs. Jovvitt. Another English rose of high standing; crimson, tinged with lake. Marshall P. Wilder. Bright cherry carmine ; fra- grant ; very free bloomer. Magna Cliarta. A splendid sort; bright clear pink, flushed with violet-crimson; very sweet; flower extra-large ; fine form ; very double and full; a free bloomer. Mad. Charles Wood. Flowers large, dazzling crimson ; a constant bloomer. Paul Neyron. Flowers of immense size, often 5 inches in diameter. Color deep clear rose, very fresh and pretty. The plant is a strong, healthy grower, with clean glossy foliage, and one of the most pro- lific bloomers in the Hybrid class ; young plants in the nursery rows bloom almost without intermission from June to late October. Queen of Queens. Pink flower, with blush edge ; large, full and of perfect form. White Baroness. A sport from Baroness Rothschild. Pure white flowers of the same shape as in the parent. NOTE.—It is useless to speak of our stock of fine roses to those who visited us from surrounding towns last season. Many came from miles to see these beds, and to admire their beauty, and if all our customers could have visited our nurseries at that time we would not need to speak of fine roses, to be had at small cost. The beauty of the plantation throughout the summer was marvelous, and wagon loads of roses were cut and given away to admiring crowds.
