GREENHOUSE PLANTS
ORQHIDS
To Our Customers
take pleasure in presenting here a guide to our collections of Ever-
green and Deciduous Trees and Shrubs, Orchids, Stove and Green-
house Plants, and Hardy Herbaceous Perennials.
Our stocks in all of the various classes are extensive; our list
of exotic plants comprises not only all of the leading varieties, but
also hundreds of hybrids and horticultural curiosities.
QUALITY
It is our constant aim to produce specimens as nearly perfect as they can be grown, to send out only
first-class stock, and to pack this stock so it will reach our customers in perfect condition.
In our Nursery great care is taken to secure the symmetrical and vigorous growth of all plants. Trees
and Shrubs are grown in rows widely separated, so all may have room for development. They are cul-
tivated constantly, transplanted frequently, and pruned, sheared and trained by expert horticulturists
so they will meet perfectly the needs of those who desire Nursery products of unusual quality. This stock
may be transplanted without checking its growth, and it will produce pleasing landscape effects in a re-
markably short time.
With the increasing interest in Orchids we have greatly enlarged our range of glasshouses, and now
devote more than 60,000 square feet to these plants alone. As with all our other products, we aim to
grow Orchids as well as possible, and we have no doubt that an inspection of our establishment will con-
vince the most exacting connoisseur of this fact.
Our list of Stove and Greenhouse Plants remains the most extensive in America. We offer only well-
grown plants, which will please the most exacting. Because our collection is so extensive, we are in a posi-
tion to fill conservatories with the choicest kinds, meeting every requirement of preference or purse. Many
of these plants we can furnish in large sizes, to give an immediate effect. We devote 500,000 square feet of
greenhouse-range to the propagation and culture of plants for the conservatory or glasshouse.
Flowering Shrubs and Roots for Forcing are one of our specialties, as we ourselves force quantities of
these for the New York market. We are able, as always, to supply the most attractive of the hardy Hybrid
Rhododendrons and other Broad-leaved Evergreens, Bay Trees, Roses and Vines, and to furnish the
most beautiful of the flowering Herbaceous Perennial Plants.

Evergreens in our upper Nursery
Evergreen Trees
Evergreens are a necessity in every scheme of landscape gardening, large or small. They create effects
not possible with any other trees or shrubbery, and add a note of unique beauty to the landscape, both
in summer and winter. In summer to serve as a contrast to shrubbery and flowers by the cool, dark green
of their foliage, and in winter to relieve the otherwise barrenness of the ground. They are most efficient
also as hedges, screens and windbreaks.

and, when using varieties of the common Thuya
occidentalis , such as Aurea, Ellwangeriana, Rosen-
thali and George Peabody, very fine color-contrasts
can be obtained in mass-planting with other ever-
greens.
Thuya occidentalis. American Arborvitce. Foli-
age bright green above, yellowish beneath.
One of the most largely used evergreens for
mass-planting and hedges. It withstands

Maple Trees growing in our Nurseries. Note the trim, erect growth
Deciduous Ornamental Trees
The people who live in the cities and towns are demanding more and more that the streets be planted
with shade trees which are both practical and sightly to the eye. To this end we try to grow trees which
answer that demand. There are any number of trees to be had at a very low figure, but when compared
with a well-grown Nursery product, the difference in quality will be apparent to the most uncritical layman.
We also grow specimens for private estates, where the main object is planting for immediate effect, and
the results obtained by using these are justified by having large and well-grown trees in a year’s time.
ACER. Maple. This family is more widely planted
than any other, as it adapts itself to nearly all
kinds and conditions of soil,

the Maples, as it withstands the gases, dust,

spreading habit, and the foliage being large
and luxuriant it makes a very dense shade.

Flowering and Evergreen Shrubs JULIUS ROEHRS CO., RUTHERFORD, N. J.
Berberis Thunbergii
Flowering and Evergreen Shrubs
The variety of shrubs is very great and they can be used in nearly any situation with a little judicious
selection. Planted alone they develop into specimens of great merit on account of their hardiness and
never growing to any great height.
Many of them have two seasons of beauty — one in the spring when in flower, and the other in the fall
when they are laden with berries.
Andromeda floribunda. Flowers very early.
Useful in Rhododendron groups. Each
12 to 15 in $0 75
15 to 18 in $1 to 1 25
Japonica. Lily-of-the-V alley Shrub. Bell-like
flowers, somewhat similar to the Lily-of-the-

Hybrid Perpetual Roses in their June glory
ROSES
Roses, above all other plants, require more care in preparing the soil than the majority of outdoor
plants. A big mistake is often made in not paying enough attention to the preparation of the Rose-beds.
If planted in poor, starved soil the result will be poor, weak plants, which have one or two flowers through
out the summer, and instead of being a pleasure are an eyesore. They need a moderately heavy soil and
plenty of well-rotted cow manure. To be kept in good, healthy condition, every spring the weak wood
should be cut out and the strong shoots cut back to within two or three eyes. The ordinary garden Roses
are divided into three classes: Hybrid Perpetuals, Hybrid Teas and Teas.
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES
Hybrid Perpetuals are very hardy and of vigorous
growth. They form magnificent, sturdy bushes,
the foliage of which, in many cases, is very hand-
some. They bloom all summer, but because
they flower more profusely in June they are often
called June Roses.
Strong, 2-year-old stock, 35c. each, $30 per 100; 2-year-
old pot-grown plants, 50c. each, $40 per 100

HYBRID TEA ROSES
The Hybrid Teas combine the free-flowering
habit of the Tea Roses, with the comparative hardi-
ness of other sorts. They represent every color and
shade, and are exceedingly sweet-scented. They
give a profusion of flowers all summer and until
the frost comes.

Hiawatha Rose
CLIMBING ROSES
These are used for covering banks, walls and
trellises, and are also very largely used in green-
houses. We grow thousands every year for the
Easter trade, and in the illustration is shown
what can be done with our pot-grown plants.
Two-year-old plants, 35 cts. each, $3 for 10; 3-year-

the Everblooming Crimson Rambler, as it has
flowers of the same color as its namesake; but
its great drawback is that at no time is it as
showy as the other.
*Hiawatha. (Hybrid Wichuraiana.) This is one
of the most beautiful single, brilliant pink
Roses, and is the best in its class.

Perennial and Herbaceous Plants JULIUS ROEHRS CO., RUTHERFORD, N. J.
In this class will be found all the old-fashioned flowers which our grandmothers and great-grand-
mothers were so fond of, and to which poets and writers of fiction are continually referring us. Take, for
instance, the Canterbury Bells, Foxgloves, Trollius, Candytuft, Primrose and innumerable other varieties
which have been known for years, which can be planted in the smallest garden. There is now the additional
advantage of our being able to obtain improvements on the old types, with larger flowers and better colors,
due to the forward movement in horticulture in the past few years.
Like most plants, perennials require well-cultivated soil, which should be kept clear of weeds after
the plants are put in the ground. They require, outside of that, a fall and spring mulching of well-rotted
stable manure, applied very lightly.
ACANTHUS. Bear's Breech. Very imposing per-

The perennial, or Michaelmas Daisy is becoming
a greater favorite every year on account of its pro-
fusion of flowers coming, as they do, in the middle
of summer and late fall. To simplify selection for
customers we have arranged them in three classes:
The first commences to flower the end of July; the
second in August, and the third in October.
Three-inch, strong, pot-grown plants, which will
flower the first year, 15 cts. each, $1.25 per doz., $10
per 100, unless otherwise noted.

Hardy Chrysanthemums
You can plant them in your perennial garden or
border and they will come up each year, giving a
wealth of bloom in the fall, long after all other

doubtedly the best, comprising a wide range of
form and color.
These should be planted as soon as the weather
permits in early spring. 2 to 3 ft. Sept.-Oct.

Fruits Under Glass
Fruits Under Glass
Grapes
Houses. — The ideal greenhouse for Grape-vines
is an even-span house running north and south,
about ioo feet long and 25 to 30 feet wide, divided
into three sections of equal length; of course the
size depends altogether upon the quantity of fruit
desired. By dividing the house into three sections,
it gives you early, medium and late fruit, which
covers practically the whole season, from May 1
until January 1.
Border. — The border is the most important part
of Grape-culture, as upon the proper making of
one depends the whole future of the vine. The main
question is the drainage; if the house has been
built on high ground, it is much simplified. Dig a
trench in the house at least 4 feet deep and the width
of the house; then cement the bottom, pitching it
toward the center from both sides about 6 inches,
and have the center pitch to whatever end you can
best drain from. Fill in on this about 15 inches of
brickbats, broken crock, charcoal, etc., which gives
you about 9 inches on the side, having the top level.
Then fill in the lower layer with sod inverted, filling
in with a good rose soil, adding coarse bone meal in
the bottom and finer for the top, depending al-
together on the requirements of the soil.
Muscat of Alexandria Grapes
Black Hamburg. (Sweetwater Grape.) One of
the easiest and best to grow; adapts itself to early,
medium or late houses; good keeper; free cropper.
Black Alicante. (Vinous Grape.) At one time
this was the greatest favorite and is still planted
for exhibition purposes, as it has massive bunches
^of excellent color and bloom.
umickland Sweetwater. (Sweetwater Grape.) A
round white Grape; ripens about the same time
as Black Hamburg and is valuable for early use.
•Roster’s Seedling. (Sweetwater Grape.) A very
robust grower, good setter and hangs well. A
white seedling of Buckland Sweetwater.
Gros Guillaume; syn., Barbarossa. (Vinous
Grape.) Produces exceptionally large bunches
and has large, round, black berries. Late.
Grapes, continued
Gros Maroc. (Vinous Grape.) An excellent va-
riety, the fruit being almost as large as that of
Gros Colman. Fruit intense black with a heavy
bloom. Late variety.
Gros Colman. This is the standard black Grape for
late work. It is of easy culture and always full of
bunches. Should not be started later than the
first of April.
Madresfield Court. (Muscat Grape.) This is one
of the oldest varieties, having been planted for
the last forty or fifty years. It is a black Grape,
with large berries. It does not require strong heat
and just as good results can be obtained in a late
house as in an early one.
Muscat of Alexandria. (Muscat Grape.) One of
the oldest varieties and of exceptional merit.
Should be planted in a house by itself, but can be
grown in a mixed house; responds very readily
to good treatment, but it must not be neglected.
The fruit when ripe is pale amber in color.
Those most suitable for pot culture are Black
Hamburg, Foster’s Seedling, Madresfield Court and
Gros Colman.
Strong, pot-grown Grapes, $60 per doz.
Peaches and Nectarines
Peaches and Nectarines, being so similar, require
practically the same treatment, and we shall, there-
fore, treat them under one head.
Houses. — They require about the same kind of
house as grapes. The house can also be divided into
three compartments for early, medium and late
varieties.
Borders. — They do not require as large a border
as grape-vines. If the border is 3 feet deep and
4 feet wide it is sufficient. They do not like a heavy
soil, but a sandy loam and very well drained.
Kind of Plants. — For planting in the border,
you can buy the plants trained to the proper shape,
but a much better method is to obtain a pot-grown,
bushy tree which, with very little labor, can be
trained any way you want it, with the additional
advantage of having a tree which is not retarded in
growth, and will start right into growth. These
trees may also be grown in pots with the advantage
of being able to bring them in a good deal earlier.

Trained Fruit Trees and Plants
These are usually planted in the kitchen-garden along trellises and against stone walls. The south
wall is always preferable to the others. They can also be used for planting in the border in the greenhouse,

The following list of fruit trees we have found to give the best satisfaction, provided a moderate
amount of care is taken in planting and cultivating the trees after being planted. We give below a few
hints as to care, etc.
Pruning. Before planting trees, shorten half of last year’s growth, to balance up what the tree has
lost in its root-system by being transplanted.
Soil. All fruit trees, as a rule, do not grow well in wet or poorly drained soil. They do best in good
farm soil such as is used to grow wheat, corn, etc.
Planting. The trees should always be planted in a hole large enough to allow the roots to be spread
out without cramping them. Then when the tree is held in its proper position the top-soil should be placed
around the roots and great care taken that it is worked in well among the small roots; then firm it thor-
oughly with the foot.
Apples
Apples having been planted extensively for so
many years require little introduction. In orchard
planting they should stand about 30 feet apart,
whereas in the home-grounds they can be planted
10 to 15 feet apart.

previous year’s growth early every spring. Trees

Quinces
Quinces are largely planted on account of their
compact growth, and for that reason they can be
planted between the other trees in the orchard.
The fruit is used mostly for preserving and also
baked in the same manner as apples.
4 to 5 ft., 50 cts. each, $4.50 for 10; 6 to 7 ft., 75 cts.

Champion. Tree bears when very young, and
abundantly; fruit large. Late October.
Meech’s Prolific. Fruit of medium size; orange-
yellow; ripens early. Beginning of October.
Peaches
Of all the garden fruits, Peaches hold first rank, as
they commence to bear right after the small fruits,
such as currants, raspberries, strawberries, cherries
and others have finished, and they fill in the gap
until pears and apples are ripe. Peaches prefer a
light, sandy soil.
4 to 5 ft., 35 cts. each, $3 for 10; 5 to 6 ft., 50c. each,
$4.50 for 10; 6 to 7 ft., 75 cts. each, $7 for 10

are three kinds of Plums: Native, European and
Japanese. Those we list below have been proved
to be the best.
5 to 6 ft., 50 cts. each, $4.50 for 10; 6 to 7 ft., 75 cts.

Grapes
Grapes require mostly a well-cultivated piece of
ground, but care must be taken that it is well
drained.
After planting, the vines should be cut back in
early spring to two or three eyes. The following
year the best cane should be selected and cut to
about 6 feet, and the others to one or two eyes, and
repeat this year after year. In this way well-sea-
soned fruiting canes are always retained.
Two years old, 15 cts. each, $1.20 for 10, $10 per 100;
3 years old, 25 cts. each, $2.20 for 10, $20 per 100;

time as Cuthbert.
Superlative. Red, very large and firm. 20 cts.
each, $1.80 for 10.

the fruiting season lasts for two or three months
and the birds are attracted to them. The fruit is
used largely for preserving and eating.

Currants should be planted in well-manured soil,
and the first year should be cut back to allow a few
strong branches to grow. In the following years
the old wood should always be cut out.

berries on long stems, which facilitate picking
greatly. Is of excellent flavor and early.
Lee’s Prolific. The largest in berry and bunch,
and the most productive of all the blacks.
Perfection. Considered one of the best red Cur-
rants; large fruit and bunches; seed small; the
quality is rich, subacid.
Victoria. Red; large bunch and berries; late in
ripening, very desirable.
Gooseberries

Downing. (American.) Large; pale green, covered
with white bloom; very good quality and flavor;
productive and healthy.
Crown Bob. (European.) Large; red; fruit of best
quality.

Strawberries
The following list comprises the varieties we have
found to be the best, and all are strong, healthy
plants.
20 cts. per doz., 40 cts. for 50, 75 cts. per 100, $6
per 1,000. If wanted by mail, add 10 cts. for each
dozen, or 50 cts. for each 100.
Senator Dunlap. Medium early and makes a
long season. It is probably planted more exten-
sively than any other variety at present. Should
be planted about twice as far apart as most va-
rieties, to do its best. The plants have very long
roots and a surprising capacity for enduring
drought and all kinds of hardship. The berries
are very firm, and retain their brightness after
traveling long distances.
Twilley. Medium early. It makes large plants
with laige crowns and vigorous foliage, and the
berry is large, firm, good and a great keeper.
Uncle Jim. Also called Dornan. It makes im-
mense plants, and roots that are a wonder for
length and abundance, and yields great crops of
large berries which hold their size well. The
fruit is blight red and firm, with light red flesh; the
quality is good, much above the average.
Fendall. Early. A Maryland berry. It is a won-
derful grower, with large foliage and long roots.
The fruit is immensely large; in color and flavor
it is all that could be desired. As to yield it is
remarkably prolific. Its season of ripening is
very long, covering a period of forty days. On
this account, as well as for its fine flavor, it is
excellent for home-gardens.
Glen Mary. Early. It is vigorous in growth,
making large plants, which are exceedingly pro-
ductive. On this account, together with the
great size, brilliant color, good flavor and firm
texture of the fruit, is has made its way to pop-
ularity, notwithstanding its irregular form.
Sample. Late. It was introduced about a dozen
years ago, and has been one of the leading late
varieties ever since. The plants are strong, with
long roots, and are exceedingly prolific. The
fruit is large, roundish, conical, bright red through-
out, moderately firm, and fairly good.

Orchid Department
Gold Medal Group, which won for us the $1,000 prize at the Boston Orchid Show
Orchid Department
Of all the flowers which Mother Nature has given us to satisfy our longings to grow her rare and
beautiful creations, to embellish our homes with their fresh loveliness of form and color, or for personal
adornment, there is none to compare with the Orchid.
In no other member of the Flower Kingdom are there such wondrous combinations of form, color and
texture. No other flower so persistently appeals to the refined taste of those to whom Orchids have become
a passion. In no other flower can there be found such charming grace, nor such exquisite perfume, varying
from the faint, delicate fragrance of some of the Dendrobiums to the delicious and almost overpowering
odor of the Aerides and Epidendrums.
Contrary to the generally mistaken opinion, Orchids are by no means difficult to grow to their fullest
perfection. With properly grown and well-established plants, such as we supply, their cultivation is as
simple and easy as that of the ordinary greenhouse plant. Another prevalent error is that the Orchid is
exclusively a “rich man’s flower.” This is by no means the case, for many of the varieties are relatively
inexpensive, and it is possible, by the expenditure of a very limited amount of money, to have a collection
of Orchids of superlative beauty. Naturally they require the proper kind of house, the correct receptacles
and material in which to grow, care in watering and temperature, and other attention which must be
given to all growing things. Given these, the Orchid will reward the grower most abundantly.
Orchids require plenty of light and air, but must not be exposed to the full sun; the proper shading of
the Orchid house in summer is very essential. All the necessary details of Orchid-growing can be had from
many of the practical books on the subject, a list of which will be found on page 75.

CATTLEYA
The Cattleyas are among the best known and most popular of all Orchids, being used in ever-
increasing quantities for decoration wherever flowers are desired. They range through a bewildering vari-
ation in color, are deliciously fragrant and most entrancing in form. They thrive best in a temperate
house, with plenty of moisture. They can be grown in pots, pans and baskets in fibrous peat, with proper
drainage. While they require shading from the strong sun in summer, dark houses should be avoided,
and air should be .admitted whenever possible.

CYPRIPEDIUM
This most interesting branch of the Orchid family is composed of many varieties and an almost unlimited
number of hybrids, of bewildering variation in form and color, and offers a bountiful field of enjoyment
to the amateur. The Cypripediums are terrestrial Orchids, and grow best in a temperate house, on the shady
side, with plenty of moisture and air. They should be potted in a compost of fibrous peat and sphagnum
moss, with a small quantity of fibrous loam. They are of the easiest culture and bloom in the greatest
profusion. Many of this class are extremely low in price and offer untold enjoyment to the Orchid-lover
of limited means.

DENDROBIUMS
The Dendrobiums belong to a very large genus of epiphytal Orchids, widely distributed, and varying
greatly in character and habit, some being dwarf and tufted, but 3 inches high, while others carry pseudo-
bulbs 3 to 4 feet high. They grow best in pans or baskets, hung near the glass, in a mixture of fibrous peat
and sphagnum moss. Care should be taken in giving them the smallest possible pans or baskets, as they are
very sensitive to overpotting. With a few exceptions the Dendrobiums require plenty of heat and moisture.
When their growth is completed, they require cooler treatment, with plenty of light and air, followed by a
season of rest.

ONCIDIUM
The Oncidiums are epiphytal Orchids of rare beauty, great variation in form and color, and are most
prolific bloomers. Being natives of Mexico, Peru and the West Indies, they grow best in a temperature
of from 50 to 55 degrees, and require plenty of air and moisture during growth. They may be grown in
pots, pans or baskets, in a mixture of fibrous peat and sphagnum moss, and water must be given sparingly,
but not withheld when their growth is completed.

HYBRID ORCHIDS
Brassocattleya, Brassocattlaelia, Brassolaelia, Cattleya, Cymbidium, Cypripedium,
Odontoglossum, Odontioda, etc.
Orchid hybridization dates back to 1856, when the first one raised was exhibited in London. Gradually
others were raised, but during the next twenty years probably not more than twenty-five different hybrids
were shown. Later on, many commercial and private establishments took up the work of Orchid hybrid-
ization in such earnest, and with such astonishing results, that the number now is legion.
Remarkable results have been obtained by crossing different genera — see Odontioda, Sophrocattleya,
etc. The chief consideration in hybridizing Orchids is the selection of the parents; and, even when this
is done, the results vary to a great extent. It is, therefore, always advisable to buy these plants when
they are in bloom, or those that have flowered and have proved to be good.

JULIUS ROEHRS CO., RUTHERFORD, N. J. Stove and Greenhouse Plants
The magnificent display our plants make when grown in the conservatory
Stove and Greenhouse Plants
We have for years been growing a great variety of these plants, and by continually adding to our
collection, we have today the finest in America.
These plants, with ever- varying foliage and habit of growth, a good many of them bearing beautiful
flowers, add the necessary luster and beauty to the conservatory, and are an everlasting pleasure to the
amateur. They are quite as easily grown as any others.
Many of these plants enumerated are climbers and creepers most desirable for decorating walls or -trel-
lises, others of a trailing habit lend themselves finely
to basket-work.
Many can be had in small sizes at moderate cost.
We also always have a number of specimen

Roses and Carnations for Greenhouse Culture
We are at all times ready to supply all the known new and commercial varieties. Special lists, with
prices, will be sent on application.
PALMS
All Palms are ornamental, and many varieties, being of a majestic yet graceful growth, are indis-
pensable in conservatories. Of high decorative value, they produce an effect, whether used in parlor, hall
or greenhouse, not to be obtained by any other plant.
We carry a large assort-
ment, especially in the commer-
cial varieties, like Kentia, Phoe-
nix, Areca, Cocos, etc., but
our list includes also many
of the rarer varieties. We al-
ways have on hand large speci-
mens. Full descriptions and
prices will be cheerfully for-
warded on application.

Water-Lilies JULIUS ROEHRS CO., RUTHERFORD, N. J.
Sweet-scented Water-Lilies
Water-Lilies
Owing to the gorgeous colors and diversity of forms in this class of plants, they are universally ad-
mired. In our large public parks and on our finest private estates, the space devoted to these is always
sure to attract its share of attention.
America is fortunate in being the most highly favored country in the world for the cultivation of all
classes of aquatics. From April to October we may have a rich and continuous display without artificial
heat, and from the Nymphaeas in early spring until late fall a constant supply of new flowers may be had,
varying in color from white and pink to the more brilliant shades of red, carmine and crimson.
The hardy varieties should be planted in May in this latitude, but the more tender ones should not
be put out until the middle of June, when the weather is much warmer and more settled.
Always keep the pond well filled with water but avoid springs or running streams, as they tend to
lower the temperature to a dangerous degree. We list below the best varieties known to cultivation.
