This grand new ever- blooming Rose is one of the most beautiful vari- eties we have ever sent out, and is very largely, planted by those who know its beauty. The color is a remarkable shade of creamy yellow, richly colored with rosy blush. The petals are large and each one widely bordered with bright crimson, which gives it a very striking and beautifal appear- ance. The flowers are large, very full, and highly perfumed. This is the Tulip Rose so, called because of the feathery shad- ing of bright rose around the edge of every petal, the body of the petal being creamy-white and: of heavy texture. Price. 6 cents each; 50 cents per dozen; $3 per hundred. Ever-Blooming Tea Rose, riRS. D*GRAW. Everybody wants a hardy, ever- blooming Rose, and we now offer the grandest of this class. Prom early Summer till frost it can be depended upon to produce flowers of large size and exquisite fragrance in lavish abundance. In color it is a § rich, glossy-pink. It is such a strong grower that it is always impregna- ble against attacks of insects. For garden or cemetary it has no equal. Price. 6 cents each; 50 cents per dozen; $4 per hundred. Tea Rose, SNOWFLAKE. It is a lovely new white Tea; the freest flowering Rose we have ever seen. The Rose was introduced by C. Straus & Co., of Washington, D. C, and by them grown in large quantities for cut flowers; they claim it is the most profitable white Rose they grow; that they had counted one hundred andfiity-three buds and flowers on one plant in a single day, and the plant less than a year old. Price. 6 cents each; 50 cents per dozen; $3 per hundred. New Forcing Rose, HAID OF HONOR. (The Brighter Bridesmaid.) Advertised as Miss Clara Barton. This grand sport from Bridesmaid originated with the Hoflfmeisters of Ohio. They say of it; "After rigid tests, during the last two years, we are able to state—flrst. That its color is a rich, glowing pink, darker than Bridesmaid. Second, That it is an excellent keeper, and sells over the counter better than Bridesmaid. Third, That it is a mosl?^ proliflc bloomer, with all perfect buds^." Price, 75 cents per dozen; $5 per hundred.
