SNOWFLAKE. Snowffake. This variety is never out of bloom, and for a pure white bedding Rose its equal is hard to find. On account of its freedom of bloom and form of growth it is often called "White Hermosa." Souvenir de la Malmaison. (Bourbon.) One of the choicest Roses we offer and one that will give entire satisfaction for either garden or pot culture. The color is a creamy flesh, bright and clear. The flower large and double; very fragrant. Sapho. One of the daintiest, most beautiful Roses of its class; apricot yellow, shaded fawn and buff. The flowers appear in great profusion and are very valuable for cut flowers, as they last well after being cut. 15c. Sombreuil. Large, fine formed flowers, pure white, edged silvery rose; blooms in clusters. An excel- lent Rose. Souv. d'un Ami. A splendid Tea Rose, free flowering and vigorous in growth; color deep rosy flesh, beautifully shaded with rich carmine. Extra large globular flower, nicely scented. Susanne Blanchett. A very satisfactory Rose for gen- eral cultivation. It grows rapidly and blooms very freely; color pale flesh, changing to rosy white, shaded rosy amber. Senator McNaughton. A grand Tea Rose, a sport of Perle des Jardins, with which it is identical in every respect except color. It has the same rich, glossy foliage, sturdy habit of growth and free blooming qualities. The flowers are very large and full, with excellent shaped buds; color a deli- cate creamy white. An excellent winter blooming variety. 15 c.

A beautiful large pure white flower with thick, shell shaped petals, fine both in bud and fully open flower. Plant a strong, healthy grower, equally valuable for pot or garden culture. 15c. The Bride. A pure white Rose of perfect form and extra large size. The buds are long and pointed, very handsome, while the flower opens up beauti- ful and full; delightfully scented.

A beautifully colored and valuable variety.
