KAISERIN AUGUSTA. Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. A beautiful rose with elegant, large pointed buds and very large, full double flowers; color delicate creamy white, deli- ciously fragrant. The plant is a strong, healthy grower and constant bloomer. The flowers are on strong, stiff stems with rich, glossy foliage, making it one of the finest roses for corsage wear or any other use to which cut flowers can be put. 15c. Augustine Guinoisseau. (W h i t e La France.) Perhaps the best that could be said of this beautiful, free flowering rose is that it is a White La France with just a tint of blush clouding its broad petals. The flowers are extra large, very full and finely formed and of delightful fragrance. A remark- ably free bloomer and a rose that no one who grows roses should miss. Beauty of Stapleford. Bright pink, shaded carmine; large size, very full, delight- fully fragrant. Ferdinand Jamin. (Hybrid Tea.) A won- derfully strong, healthy grower, with rich, bright foliage; a grand bedding rose; color rosy carmine, shaded with salmon. 15c. Clara Watson. (Hybrid Tea.) A beau- tiful rose of large size, very fragrant and fine form; color, salmon pink, blended with blush pink at the outer edge of petals, shading to yellow at center. A strong grower and profuse bloomer; a grand summer bedding Rose. 15c. Germain Trochon. Plant of strong, half climbing habit of growth, with fine large, deep bronzy green foliage. Flowers large and double, color salmon flesh, center nankeen yellow, edge of petal shaded rose. 15c. La France. Delicate silvery rose, shaded with cerise pink, often silvery pink with peach shading, very large, double and of superb form. It flowers con- tinually throughout the season. None can sur- pass the delicacy of its coloring; in fragrance in- comparable, in form perfect. The sweetest of all roses. It ranks first not only in the section to which it belongs, but stands first and foremost among roses. Mad. Schwaller. A remarkable Rose, having the strength and style of the Hybrid Perpetual and the free flowering qualities of the Tea; color deep rosy flesh, deepening on edge of petals. Meteor. We have no red Rose that is better for gen- eral purposes or that gives as many perfect shaped flowers on nice, long stems. The color is rich, velvety crimson, exceedingly bright and attractive. The plant is of vigorous growth, and very free flowering; a constant bloomer. Fine for summer bedding or pot culture. METEOR,
