WHITE MAMAN COCHET. Forcing I^ose, PERLE DES JARDINS. Canary or golden yellow flowers and beautifully formed. Handsome in every stage of development, from the small- -est bud to tbe open flower. Price, 6 cents each, 50 cents per dozen, $4.00 per 100; 4-incli, $8.00 per 100. Forcing Rose, THE BRIDE, This is decidedly the most beautiful white Tea Rose. It is a sport from Catharine Mermet, with which it is identical in growth and shape of flowers. The flowers are very large and double, on long, stiff stems, of flne texture and substance, and lasts a long time in a fresh state after be- ing cut, making it one of the best varieties for corsage wear or bouquets. Price, 6 cents each, 50 cents per dozen, ^3.00 per 100; 4-inch, $8.00 per 100. Forcing Rose, BRIDESMAID. This variety is grown so extensively now that it hardly needs description. It is a sport from the old standard, Catherine Mermet, and retains all the good qualities of the parent. It is a deep pink, about two shades deeper than C. Mermet. As a cut flower rose, it is cultivated more than any other. Price, 50 cents per dozen, $3.00 per 100; 4-inch, $8.00 per 100. The Beautiful White Forcing l^ose, WHITE MAMAN COCHET. The finest rose of the year; like its parent the growth is vigorous with rich, healthy foliage, producing large, flne flowers of the purest white; in fact, it is an exact counterpart of the beautiful Maman Cochet and all who have tried it pro- nounce it the flnest cut flower Tea Rose in ex- istence. Price, 50 cents per dozen; $4.00 per 100; 4-inch, $8.00 per lOO. Crimson Forcing Rose, METEOR. A velvety red ever-bloomer, of the deepest glowing crimson. As fine as a Hybrid; flower of medium size, very double, and petals slightly recurving. A beautiful open Rose, a free bloomer and promising well as a pot Rose. It has no tinge of violet or purple to mar its beauty. It promises to be a reliable ever-bloomer, free from bad qualities. The best rich red Rose that was ever introduced for florists' use. The usual de- mand for this forcing Rose has caused us to grovf them in large quantity, and we offer them in two sizes. Nice, strong 2i/^-inch pots, 6 cents each, 50 cents per dozen, $4.00 per 100; 4-inch, $8.00 per 100. Forcing Rose, MAMAN COCHET. One of the best new Roses. The growth is vigorous, with rich, healthy foliage. The extra large flowers are produced on long stems, are very double, and the buds and half expanded flowers are simply exquisite in their graceful form, delicate color and rich fragrance. The color is deep rose pink. Price, 50 cents per dozen; $3.00 per 100; 4-inch, $8.00 per 100. METEOR.
