Maman Cocbet. riarion Dingee. Is a strong grower. The flowers are large, beautiful shape, and borne in wonderful profusion all through the growing season; having thick, leathery petals which hold their form and color for a long time; it is a deep brilliant crimson, wonderful in the open ground, where it is particularly valuable. Ea. 50c., doz. $5.00. Papa Gontier. A desirable winter-flowering rose, as it can be grown in a much lower temperature than any other variety, doing best in a temperature suitable for carnations; buds are long and pointed, deep carmine in color, and exceed- ingly beautiful in form. It is a very strong, vig- orous grower, with long, strong, straight stems. Ea. 20c., doz. $2.00. Pres. Car not. A lovely color, outer petals ^hite, center delicate flesh pink. Flowers are of a large size and high quality, and are also delight- fully fragrant. It is a strong, vigorous grower and a free bloomer, producing large quantities of the finest shaped buds on long stems. One of the finest ever-blooming roses that has ever been introduced for garden cultivation. Ea. 15c., doz. $1.50. Queen. A pure white rose, elegant in shape and very large; a vigorous grower and continuous bloomer, producing a great abundance of buds and flowers all through the season.

Is a very strong, free grower, throwing up stroog, erect canes. Every cane is crowned with a large, full, deep, double flower of exquisite shape and color, creamy white, shading to yellow. Beyond question this is a superb rose. Ea. 25c., doz. $2.50. Souvenir de Wootton. This is the best crimson winter-flowering rose for general cultivation, as it is much more easily grown in midwinter than Meteor, on which account it is largely grown by those who cannot succeed with Meteor. Flowers are deliciously fragrant, and much like Jacque- minot in size and color. Throws good stems, but frequently in clusters; if disbudded, size of flower is largely increased.

As it opens the color deepens, the scarlet turning darker red, the yellow to orange and copper, the inside of the petals golden yel- low.
