thosa coming late in the season and requiring attention at once. In every case where possib it
advisable tc forward goods early. If ground is nos in condition to plant, they can be left in the bowes, or be e.
out and the roots covered with earth. i
How A! orders should be legibly written cut on the order sheet herein enclosed; this will preve on

ak eae Gileriie fruit trees, it should in all cases be stated whether standard trees are wanted £ fo

Order orchards, or dwarfs for gardens.

Where perticular varieties are ordered, and particular ages and sizes of trees, kinds of we k,
etc., it should be siated whether, and to rpalene extent, other varieties, sizes, ages, etc., may. be
substituted, in case the order cannot be filled to the letter, as happens occasionally in alt cata
lishments.

Al! trees and plants are carefully labeled and packed in the best manner for all parts of the
Packing world and delivered on board cars here at the prices named in this catalogue. 4
and It is requested that post-office address, as well as explicit directions for marking and | ship-
Shipping ping packages, accompany each order. When it is left to usto choose the mode of convey,
Directions ance, we will exercise our best jzdgment. We pack in such a manner that fruit trees ¢
omali fruits (excepting strawberries), ornamental trees, shrubs, evergreens, and roses, go aor as freight, a |
Hardy border plants should be snipped by express. In all cases the articles are at the risk of the paren
after being shipped, and if delay or loss occurs, the forwarder alone must be held responsible.

For shipment abroad, we pack in the best manner, in close boxes. Our consignments to all pas
the world have generaliy ‘been received in good ecadition, and parties who favor us with their orders
rely upon the same having careful attention. Shipments of this kind can usually be made to the be
advantage in the month of November.
Ali orders from unknown correspondents must be accompanied with a draft on some of the prin-
Terms cipal cities, or post-office or express money order for the amount. If neither can be had, enclose 2 |
currency in registered letter.
Claims for deduction must be made immediately on receipt of goods. No claims will be allowed
Claims for loss by cold in winter or drouth in summer or for any cause whatsoever beyond our control.
No claims will ie allowed for delay or loss by transportation companies—they alone must be held =e |

GUARANTEE. In growing and furnishing all nursery stock we use the greatest care tol |
have it true to name, aad will replace any that may prove untrue. But no sale by us carries af |
warranty of quality, express or implied, and for any error we shall not be liable for more thaz a
the purchese price. Every purchase from us is made on these terms.

Prices Our prices may not be the lowest, but Price is a secondary matter when considering the |
CeS of Trees and Plants. Quality should count for something, also the record of seventy-two ye
of fair dealing.
The prices in this catalogue supersede those of all former editions.

Express The express companies now carry trees and plants to any part of the country at a reduction ¢ of of | :
Rates 20 per cent. from regular merchandise rates. 4

Packing The Spring packing and shipping season usually cpens here about the first of Ave and con-
Scasoa tinues into the month of May. The planting season is not regulated by any particular month
or day. nor by the state of vegetation where the planting is to be done, but by the condition A |
the trees to be planted. Hence, trees can be sent with safety from Rochestei to localities several degrees }|
south, even if they do not arrive until the ordinary transplanting season in that locality is passed. In the’
autumn, we usually commence digging and packing the first week in October and continue untii the freez- |
ing of the ground, say middle to end of November. a
Fall The Spring planting season is often of such short duration that much intended work is neces-
Plantin sarily cmitted or postponed. In the Fall there is abundance of time to plan and plant, and me)
© work therefore can frequently be done as satisfactorily as in the Spring. |
The once prevalent notion that Fall planting is not advantageous, has proved to be erroneous. Almost |
everything called hardy can be planted successfully in the autumn, except in some regions where the win 7 |
ters are extremely serere, ot in exposed situations, in which case Spring planting is absoluteiy necessary
Tiled may be Raniaain successfully in August and September.

E take pleasure in presenting herewith our Catalogue
for 1913, with revised and complete descriptions. The
simple and systematic arrangement, combined with a
~*~ complete index, renders the publication very convenient
,-) for reference, and of great assistance to our patrons in
making up their orders, and we think the present edition
will serve, not merely as a catalogue or descriptive price
list, but as a useful handbook and manual, containing
valuable cultural directions, and other important hints,
indispensable to planters.

In both the Fruit and Ornamental, as well as in the
Rose Departments, our Nurseries are kept fully up to
the times. We endeavor to procure, as soon as introduced,
every novelty at home and abroad that promises to be worthy
of dissemination, and we carefully test it in our trial grounds,
which are maintained at large expense.

The immense stock which we cultivate, embracing great and
varied collections suited to different soils and climates, and the
large force of skilled nursery assistants which we have in our em-

ploy, in addition to exceptional facilities for lifting, handling,

packing and shipping, place us in a position to promise to our
patrons the careful execution of all orders, large or small, that
may be entrusted to us.

It is our aim and intention to supply only the best stock at the
lowest prices consistent with the quality of the goods offered, and
all intending purchasers will find it to their advantage to give us an opportu-
nity to furnish estimates upon their lists.

It will be noted that we have omitted from the lists in both the Fruit and
Ornamental Departments several varieties of Fruit and Ornamental Trees,
Shrubs, and Roses, which, owing to the limited demand for them, we have con-

cluded not to propagate longer.
Our patrons are requested to read carefully “‘ Hints on Transplanting,” “‘ The Prepara-
tion of the Soil,” “The Preparation of the Trees,” “ Planting,” “* After Culture.” The
information given under these headings is important, and success in planting will largely
depend upon the careful observance of the suggestions made.

We are grateful for the liberal patronage which we have enjoyed for nearly three-
quarters of a century and solicit a continuance of the same.

FRUIT DEPARTMENT

HINTS ON TRANSPLANTING, ETC.

We cannot attempt to give complete directions on all points connected with Tree Planting, but simply
a few hints on the more important operations. Every man who purchases a bill of trees should put himself
in possession of “THe Frurr Garpen” (see third page of cover), or some other treatise on tree culture, that
will furnish him with full and reliable instructions on the routine of management. ‘Transplanting is to be
considered under the following heads:

The For fruit trees the soil should be dry, either natural or made so by thorough drainage, as
Preparation they will not live or thrive on a soil constantly saturated with stagnant moisture. It should
Si thea Soil also be well prepared by twice plowing, at least, beforehand, using the subsoil plow after the
common one at the second plowing. On new, fresh lands, manuring will be unnecessary ;
but on lands exhausted by cropping, fertilizers must be applied, either by turning in heavy crops of clover,
or well decomposed manure or compost. To ensure a good growth of fruit trees, land should be in as good
condition as for a crop of wheat, corn, or potatoes.
The In regard to this important operation, there are more fatal errors committed than in any
Pre . other. As a general thing, trees are planted in the ground precisely as they are sent from

Paration the nurser Inr i iE tter h fully it be d ti f th

ee che Tees Wis emoving a tree, no matter how carefully it may be done, a portion of the

roots are broken and destroyed, and consequently the balance that existed in the structure
of the tree is deranged. This must be restored by a proper pruning, adapted to the size, form and con-
dition of the tree, as follows:

Sranparp Orcuarp Trees. These, as sent from the nursery, vary from five to seven feet in height,
with naked stems or trunks, and a number of branches at the top forming a head. These branches should
all be cut back to within three or four buds of their base. This lessens the demand upon the roots, and
enables the remaining buds to push with vigor. Cut off smoothly all bruised or broken roots up to the
sound wood.

Dwarr Trees, if of two or three years growth, with a number of side branches, will require to be
pruned with a two-fold object in view, viz., the growth of the tree and the desired form. The branches
must be cut into the form of a pyramid by shortening the lower ones, say one-half, those above them
shorter, and the upper ones around the leading shoots to within two or three buds of their base. The leader
itself must be shortened back one-half or more. When trees have been dried or injured much by exposure,
the pruning must be closer than if in good order.

Yearuine Trees INTENDED For Pyramrps. Some of these may have a few side branches, the smallest.

of which should be cut clean away, reserving only the strongest and best placed. In other respects they
should be pruned as directed for trees of two years growth. Those having no side branches should be cut
back so far as to insure the production of a tier of branches within twelve inches of the ground. A strong
yearling, four to six feet, may be cut back about half, and the weaker ones more than that. It is better to
cut too low than not low enough, for if the first tier of branches be not low enough the pyramidal form
cannot afterwards be perfected.
Dig holes in the first place large enough to admit the roots of the tree to spread out in their
natural position; then, having the tree pruned as before directed, let one person hold it in an
upright position, and the other shovel in the earth, carefully putting the finest and the best from the sur-
face in among the roots, filling every interstice, and bringing every root in contact with the soil. When
the earth is nearly filled in, a pail of water may be thrown on to settle and wash in the earth around the
_ roots; then fill in the remainder and tread gently with the foot. The use of water is seldom necessary,
except in dry weather early in fall or late in spring. Guard against planting too deep; the trees, after the
ground settles, should stand in this respect as they did in the nursery. Trees on dwarf stock should stand
so that all the stock be under the ground, and no more. In very dry, gravelly ground, the holes should be
dug twice the usual size and depth, and filled in with good loamy soil.

UNT HOPE

HINTS ON TRANSPLANTING, ETC.—Continued —

Staki If trees are tall and much exposed to winds, a stake should be planted with the tree, to which it
taking chould be tied in such a manner as to avoid chafing. A piece of matting or cloth may be put
between the tree and the stake.

: When the tree is planted throw around it as far as the roots extend, and a foot beyond, five or
Mulching 55. inches deep of rough manure or litter. This is particularly necessary in dry ground, and is
highly advantageous everywhere both in spring and fall planting. It prevents the ground from baking or
cracking, and maintains an even temperature about the roots.

Af Gateuc The grass should not be allowed to grow around young trees after being planted, as it
ter-Guiture = stunts their growth. The ground should be kept clean and loose around them until, at
least, they are bearing size.

Ss : In regard to this all important subject we would recommend our patrons to communicate with
PrayInS the Experiment Station in the state in which they live and get definite instructions about
spraying for their particular locality, in bulletins published for the purpose.

Treatment of Trees that have been Frozen in the Packages or Received during Frosty
Weather. Place the packages, unopened, in a cellar or some such place, cool, but free from frost, until
perfectly thawed, when they can be unpacked, and either planted or placed in a trench until convenient to
plant. Treated thus, they will not be injured by the freezing. Trees procured in the fall for spring plant-
ing, should be laid in trenches in a slanting position to avoid the winds; the situation should always be
sheltered and the soil dry. A mulching on the roots and a few evergreen boughs over the tops will afford
good protection.

DISTANCE BETWEEN TREES OR PLANTS IN PLANTATIONS

Sranparp App tes, 30 to 40 feet apart each way. In poor soil, 25 feet may be enough.

Sranparp Pears anp Cuerrtes, 20 feet apart éach way. Cherries will do at 18 feet, and the dwarf growing
sorts, Dukes and Morellos, even at 16 feet.

Sranparp Piums, Peacues, anD Apricots, 16 to 18 feet apart each way.

Qurixces, 10 to 12 feet apart each way.

Dwarr Pears, 10 to 12 feet apart each way. The greater distance is better where land is not scarce.
Dwarr Appres, on Paradise stock (bushes), 6 feet apart.

Currants, GoOSEBERRIES, AND RASPBERRIES, 3 to 4 feet apart.

BiackBeERRIES, 6 to 7 feet apart.

Grapes, 8 to 10 feet apart.

The number of plants required for an acre, at any given distance apart, may be ascertained by dividing
the number of square feet in an acre (43,560) by the number of square feet given to each plant, which is
obtained by multiplying the distance between rows by the distance between the plants. Thus, strawberries
planted three feet by one foot gives each plant three square feet, or 14,520 plants to the acre.

EXPERIMENTAL ORCHARD AND VINEYARD—TRIAL GROUNDS

Our experimental orchard forms an important feature of our business. No similar attempt has been
made in this country either by individuals or the government. We have spared neither labor nor expense
to maintain this orchard so as to derive from it the most reliable information, and after many years experi-
ence we can testify that nothing in connection with our business has been productive of such satisfactory
results as the important facts we have acquired from the tests in these grounds.

It has enabled us to determine from our own observations the fruits best adapted to this country, and
the lists of varieties now published give evidence of the careful labor performed.

At one time our collection embraced many hundreds of varieties, but we have gradually reduced it, and
we now have about 200 varieties of pears, 165 of apples, and 100 varieties of plums, and in our experimental
vineyard 175 varieties of grapes.

In the departments of Ornamental Trees, Shrubs, Peonies, Roses, etc., we have similar collections fot
study and experiment.

SELECT PEARS

The following list includes most of those which have been well tested and are valuable.

A special list of those which we find particularly well suited to the quince stock will be found at the
end of the general list.

Gathering Pears. One of the most important points in the management of Pears, is to gather them at the
proper time.

Summer Pears should be gathered at least ten days before they are ripe, and Autumn Fears at least a
fortnight. Winter varieties, if they will hang so long, may be left until the leaves begin to fall.

Thin the Fruit. We cannot urge too strongly the following suggestion: when pears trees are heavily
laden, the fruit should be thinned when about one-third grown; else the fruit will be poor and the trees
injured.

Dwarr Pears are those which are budded on the quince stock and are particularly desirable for gardens,
though from our own experience we have found certain varieties grown in this way very profitable for
market.

Prices of Dwarf Pears are the same as for Standard Pears, except in some cases by the hun-
dred as noted.

Grave. We offer but one grade of Standard and Dwarf Pears, viz., first-class or No. 1, as follows:
Standard trees, about 5 to 6 feet in height; Dwarf trees, about 3 to 4 feet in height. The quantity
which can be supplied is indicated by the price.

Prices—25 trees of one variety will be furnished at the 100 rate. 5 trees of one variety will be furnished
at the 10 rate.

SELECT CHERRIES

The Cherry succeeds well on dry soils, and is susceptible of being trained in any form that taste or
circumstances may require.

For orchards where there is ample room for large trees, and in climates where it is not subject to the
bursting of the bark, standards with four or five feet of clean trunk are preferable.

For door-yards, where shade and ornament are taken into account, standards of the free growing sorts,
with erect habit and large foliage, are the most suitable.

Grave. We offer but one grade of Cherry trees, viz., first class or No.1, as follows: Sweet cherries,
average 5 to 6 feet in height; Sour cherries, average 4 to 5 feet in height.

Prices. 25 trees of one variety will be furnished at the 100 rate. 5 trees of one variety will be furnished
at the 10 rate. The quantity which can be supplied is indicated by the price.

DUKES AND MORELLOS

These two classes of cherries are very distinct from the
preceding. The trees are of smaller size, and grow more
slowly; the leaves are thickerand more erect, and of a deeper
green. The fruit is generally round, and in color varying from
light red to dark brown. The Dukes have stout, erect branches
usually, and some of them, like Reine Hortense, quite sweet
fruit; while the Morellos have slender, spreading branches,
and acid fruitinvariably. Their hardiness renders them well
worthy of attention in localities where the Heart and
Bigarreau are too tender.

SELECT PLUMS

The prevalence of the disease of the Plum commonly called the ‘black knot,’’ and of the insect known
as the curculio, has discouraged people generally from giving to the Plum its merited share of attention.

Nothing is more favorable to the growth of the black fungus, or knot, than neglect. Our preventives
and remedies are good clean culture and prompt amputation.

Sprayine. For the curculio, the most practical treatment is thorough spraying with arsenate of lead,
using two to three pounds of poison to fifty gallons of water or dilute lime-sulphur solution, the poison to
be applied just as the husks are dropping from the fruit, and again about ten days after the first treatment.

Trees are generally 5 to 6 feet in height, and, like all the stone fruits, should have heads as low as

ossible.

SELECT PEACHES

To secure healthy, vigorous and fruitful trees and fine fruit, the following points must be well attended

to in peach culture: Ist.
dressing of wood ashes.

Keep the ground clean and mellow around the trees, and give it an occasional
2d. Keep the heads low —the trunks ought not to exceed three feet in height.

3d. Attend regularly every spring to pruning and shortening the shoots of the previous year’s growth.
This keeps the head round, full, and well furnished with bearing wood. Cut weak shoots back about one-

half, and strong ones one-third; but see that you have a sufficient supply of fruit buds.

fluous shoots should be cut clean out.

Sickly and super-

It should always be borne in mind that the fruit is produced on wood of the last season’ s growth, and hence
the necessity of keeping up a good supply of vigorous annual shoots all over the tree.

Nore.—1n planting peaches, it is of the highest importance to cut back the trees severely. The stem
should be reduced about one-third and the side branches cut back to one bud. This lessens the demand
upon the roots, and enables the remaining buds to push more vigorously. Most failures in newly planted
orchards may be ascribed to a non-observance of these directions.

RASPBERRIES

To keep a raspberry bed in good productive
condition, the old, weak and dead wood should be
cut out every season, to give strength to the young
shoots for the next year’s bearing. In the spring
the weakest suckers should be removed, leaving five
or six of the strongest in each hill. The ground
should be spaded and a top dressing of manure
given.

Protection. To guard against injury by the
Winter, the canes may be tied to stakes and covered
with straw, or they may be laid down in the Autumn
and covered with a few inches of earth, leaves, litter,
or branches of evergreens.

They can be planted in the Fall or Spring with
success. Black Caps cannot be planted in the

STRAWBERRIES
DIRECTIONS FOR CULTURE

The Soil and its Preparation. The Strawberry may be successfully grown in any soil adapted to
the growth of ordinary field or garden crops. The ground should be well prepared by trenching or plowing,
at least eighteen or twenty inches deep, and be properly enriched as for any garden crop. It is unnecessary
to say that, if the land is wet, it must be thoroughly drained.

To Cultivate the Strawberry. For family use, we recommend planting in beds four feet wide,
with an alley two feet wide between. These beds will accommodate three rows of plants, which may stand
fifteen inches apart each way, and the outside row nine inches from the alley. The beds can be kept clean
and the fruit can be gathered from them without setting the feet upon them.

Covering in Winter. Where the winters are severe, with little snow for protection, a slight cover-
ing of leaves or litter, or the branches of evergreens, will be of great service. This covering should not be
placed over the plants until after the ground is frozen, usually from the middle of November till the first of
December in this locality. Fatal errors are often made by putting on too much and too early. Care must
also be taken to remove the covering in the spring, just as soon as the plants begin to grow.

Mulching to Keep the Fruit Clean. Before the fruit begins to ripen, mulch the ground around
the plants with short hay or straw, or grass mowings from the lawn, or anything of that sort. This will
not only keep the fruit clean, but will prevent the ground from drying or baking, and thus lengthen the
fruiting season. Tan bark can also be used as mulch.

A bed managed in this way will give two full crops, and should then be spaded or plowed down, a new
one in the meantime having been prepared to take its place.

DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING ASPARAGUS

Prepare the ground by trenching to the depth of two feet,
mixing each layer of soil, as turned over, with two or three
inches of well-rotted manure. For private use or for market-
ing on a small scale, beds should be formed 5 feet wide, with
three rows planted in each, one in the middle, and one on
each side, a foot from the edge; the distance of the plants in
the rows, 9 inches; the alleys between the beds should be two

of the plants. The plants are then laid against the side of
the trench, at the distance already named—9 inches—care
being taken to properly spread the roots. The crown or top
of the plant should be covered about 2 inches. In a week or
so after planting the beds should be touched over lightly with
a sharp steel rake, which will destroy the germinating weeds.

BRIEF SUGGESTIONS TO PLANTERS
What In this and similar climates, where great extremes of temperature are experienced, it is

to Plant Becessary to employ only the most hardy ornamental trees and shrubs. Impressed with the

importance of this fact, and in order that our customers may be spared much disappointment
and expense, we have omitted from our catalogue, as far as possible, everything which is liable to suffer
from severe cold.

We have also taken great pains to secure, both at home and abroad, all valuable hardy material so as
to render our assortment of this class as complete as possible. An examination of the catalogue shows
what an extensive variety of stock is offered, enabling the planter by a judicious use of the same to accom-
plish any desired result with perfectly hardy trees, shrubs and plants.

For the convenience of planters we have grouped the trees under the following heads: Trees remark-
able for their flowers, Trees of drooping habit, Trees with variegated and colored foliage, Trees with cut
or dissected foliage. The shrubs have been similarly arranged, and parties desiring to make selections for
particular purposes will find this classification useful.

For Parks anp ExtrenstvE Grounps. No difficulty can be experienced by anyone in making selec-
tions for this purpose. But we cannot impress too strongly upon planters the importance and value of
flowering shrubs for effective masses and groups. There are many who imagine that the Rhododendron
and Azalea are indispensable. This is a great error. In this latitude both Rhododendron and Azalea
require prepared soil and protection, while hardy shrubs like the Weigela, Deutzia, Spirea, Hardy
Hydrangea, Japan Quince, Double-flowered Almond, Lilac, Viburnum, Althzea, Peony, Phlox and Japan
Anemone, when planted in masses, produce a magnificent effect, need no protection, and demand little
skill or care in their management. What grand masses of bloom can be had throughout the season by a
proper use of the various families! Then, the purple and variegated-leaved trees and shrubs may also be
planted in such a manner as to afford a rich and striking contrast.

Groups of flowering trees form superb objects at the flowering season, and it is strange that planters
do not employ them more.

Highly effective groups can be formed of trees and shrubs possessing bright-colored bark in winter.

For Lawns anp Smart Praces. Whatever specimens are planted should be of the finest species, of
moderate size, of graceful habit of growth and handsome foliage.

A pendulous tree or one with variegated foliage may be occasionally introduced, and will add to the
beauty of the grounds. Depend mainly upon dwarf shrubs for small places, and in selecting aim at secur-
ing a succession of bloom. Dwarf evergreens are very useful, and in small grounds hardy herbaceous
border plants can be used with the most satisfactory results; a proper selection will afford as much bloom
as ordinary bedding plants, and at half the trouble and expense.

When Deciduous Trees, Shrubs and Vines can be planted either in Spring or Fall. In localities where
id Pint the Winters are very severe we recommend Spring planting. Spring is the best time for ever-

greens generally, but they may also be transplanted successfully in August and early in Sep-
tember if favorable weather prevails at planting time.

BRIEF SUGGESTIONS TO PLANTERS—Continued

How PREPARATION OF THE Roots. Cut off smoothly all bruised or broken roots up to the sound
to Plant wood. This prevents their decaying and hastens the emission of new roots and fibres.

PREPARATION OF THE Top. This consists in cutting back the top and side branches in such
a way as to correspond with the more or less mutilated roots, as follows: Trees with branching heads
should have the small branches cut clean out, and the larger ones, intended for the framework of the tree,
cut back to within two or three buds of their base.

In cases where there is an abundant root and small top or few branches, the pruning need be very
light, but where the roots are small and the top heavy, severe pruning will be necessary. These remarks
are applicable to all deciduous Trees and Shrubs. Evergreens seldom require pruning, but Arbor Vite
and other Evergreens planted in hedge rows may be advantageously shorn immediately after planting.

Directions for planting, mulching, staking, and after culture, same as for fruit trees (see Hints in Fruit

Department, pages 6-7).
Pruning, as practiced by some people, has the effect to render trees and shrubs unnatural
and inelegant. We refer to the custom of shearing trees, particularly conifers, into cones,
pyramids and other unnatural shapes. Every tree, shrub and plant has a habit of growth peculiar to
itself, and this very peculiarity is one of its beauties. If we prune all trees into regular shapes we destroy
their identity. The pruning knife, therefore, should be used to assist nature, and handled with judgment
and care; to lop off straggling branches, to thin the head of a tree which has become too dense, and to
remove dead wood. Sometimes it becomes necessary to prune severely to keep a tree from attaining too
great size.

SHEARING may be practiced on hedges, but never on trees or shrubs.

Pruning Many persons trim and shear them into regular shapes, imagining that regular outline adds to
Shrubs their effect and beauty. While symmetry and regularity of form are to be admired in a shrub,
this quality should never be gained at the expense of health and natural grace.

Each shrub has peculiarities of habit and foliage, and we should aim to preserve them as far as pos-
sible. Judicious pruning to secure health and vigor is necessary, but trimming all kinds of shrubs into one
form shows a lack of appreciation for natural beauty, to say the least. Weigelas, Deutzias, Forsythias and
Mock Orange flower on the wood of the preceding year’s growth, hence the shrubs should not be pruned in
Winter or Spring, but in June, after they have finished flowering, when the old wood should be shortened or
cut out, thus promoting the growth of the young wood, which is to flower the following season.

Spireas, Lilacs, Altheeas and Honeysuckles may be trimmed during the Winter or early in Spring, but.
the branches should only be reduced enough to keep them in good shape. The old growth should be occa-
sionally thinned out and the suckers and root sprouts removed when they appear. The best time, however,
for pruning all shrubs is when they have done flowering. The Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora should be
severely cut back and thinned early in Spring.

Pruning Use the knife occasionally to thicken the growth and preserve the shape. This can be done
Evergreens in April or May, just before the trees start to grow.

CLASS IV.—Coniferz or Evergreens.

In order that planters may be able to form an idea of the size which trees and shrubs attain at

Our object in the above classification is to lessen the labor and difficulty, as far as possible, of making
selections adapted to particular purposes.

The botanical name of the genus or family, as well as the species or variety, is placed first in Full
Faced conspicuous type. The English name follows in smatx caprrats. It is to be hoped that with the

CLASS IV.—CONIFER. (Evergreens)

Norr.—Many fine conifers are entirely too tender to be cultivated successfully at the North, and we
have therefore dropped them from our list.

We are now giving special attention to the propagation and culture of perfectly hardy species and
varieties, such as are most useful to the general planter.

We recommend Spring planting for Conifers, but they may also be transplanted successfully in August
and early in September, if favorable weather prevails at the planting time.

All Evergreens will be lifted with ball of earth, and roots wrapped in burlap.

Prices are for trees of sizes indicated. Larger trees charged for in proportion to size. 5 of one variety
will be furnished at 10 rate. 25 of one variety will be furmshed at 100 rate.

fruit. 35c each; 10 for $2.50.

AMPELOPSIS

quinquefolia. American Ivy, or Virermtan
Creeper. Rich crimson in autumn; a very rapid
grower. One of the finest vines for covering
walls, verandas or trunks of trees; affords shade
quickly. 35c each; 10 for $2.50; 100 for $15.00.
var. Engelmanni. A splendid climber, grows 6
to 10 feet in a season. This variety has become
very popular on account of its ability to cling to
walls, etc., without wire trellis. 35c each; 10
for $2.50; 100 for $15.00.

53

i. Veitchii. Japan Creeper. Boston Ivy. Leaves
overlap one another, form a dense sheet of green.
It grows rapidly and clings to wall or fence with
the tenacity of Ivy; the foliage is very hand-
some in summer, and changes to crimson scarlet
in autumn. For covering walls, stumps of trees,
-rockeries, etc., no plant is so useful. For the
ornamentation of brick and stone structures, it
can be specially recommended. 35c each; 10
for $2.50; 100 for $15.00.

A New Ampelopsis

Lowii. Beautifully cut leaves, apple green, turn in
autumn to bright red hues. The young growths
cling closely and give a very lacy effect. Has
a peculiarity of not clogging the gutter, hangs
over in the form of a shower of young growths,
which give a splendid effect. 50c each; 10 for
$4.00.

ARISTOLOCHIA. Birthwort

A. Sipho. Durcuman’s Pier. A native species, of

10 to 12 feet ina season. 35c each; 10 for $2.50.

CLEMATIS. Virgin’s Bower

None among hardy perennials exceed in beauty and
effectiveness the finer sorts of Clematis. As aclimber for the
veranda, a screen for fences, for pillars along the garden
walks, for training on walls or arbors, in masses on rockwork,
or cultivation in pots, it has no rival among strong growing
blossoming plants. The Clematis should be grown in rich,
deep, sandy loam, and be well mulched with rotten manure
in winter. The richest sheets of bloom and largest flowers
are obtained where it has partial shade and a liberal supply
of water at the roots.

After many years’ experience we have come to the con-
clusion to grow only a few varieties whieh have proved
worthy of general cultivation. The leading and best varieties
are Jackmanni, Henryi, Mme. Edward Andre, paniculata
and Sieboldii.

HEDGE PLANTS

Which may be employed for Ornament, Shelter, Screens and Defense

For these purposes we recommend Evergreens like the American and Siberian Arbor Vite, Norway
Spruce, Austrian, White and Scotch Pines, Hemlocks, and many of the Deciduous and Evergreen shrubs, such
as the Privet, the California, Ibota, English and Regelianum, Berberis Thunbergii, Rosa Rugosa, Spireas,
etc., and for defensive hedges, the American Thorn, Honey Locust and Osage Orange.

FOR ORNAMENT

The Siberian Arbor Vite, in our opinion, takes the precedence among Evergreens as an Ornamental
Evergreen Hedge Plant. Its thrifty, compact growth, fine form, great hardihood and deep green color,
which its foliage retains throughout the year, adapt it especially for dividing lines between lawns or gardens,
or for hedges along streets or avenues.

The American Arbor Vite, though not quite so ornamental in character, being less dense in growth
= spreading in habit, forms a handsome hedge. It may be obtained at less cost than any other Evergreen
edge plant. ‘

With careful pruning the Norway Spruce may be kept low and in good shape, and grown in this manner
is highly ornamental. The Hemlock is a very beautiful Evergreen Hedge Plant.

Berberis Thunbergu and Rosa Rugosa are very desirable for low hedges.

FOR SHELTER AND SCREENS

For planting in belts to afford shelter from violent winds, or for concealing unsightly objects or views,
or for boundary lines, we recommend the Norway Spruce and Austrian, White and Scotch Pines. Their
robust habit, rapid, dense growth, and entire hardiness are characteristics not easily to be found in other
Evergreens.

The American Arbor Vite also is particularly valuable, either for shelter or screens.

DEFENSIVE HEDGES
For turning cattle and as a farm hedge for general purposes, the Honey Locust, in this locality and
farther north, is the most valuable. It is of vigorous growth, perfectly hardy, and thrives with ordinary
care, and is sufficiently thorny to be impenetrable. It bears the shears with impunity, and can be grown in
any desired form. The Osage Orange is also in great favor. The varieties of the American Thorn are de-
sirable hedge plants.
DIRECTIONS FOR SETTING

Evergreens must be handled with care, so as not to allow the roots to become dried by the wind. Plants
for hedges should be placed about twelve inches apart; larger sized plants will require more space.

California Privet, Honey Locust, and Osage Orange are generally planted in double rows about nine
inches apart, setting the plants alternately in the rows; for example, to plant a hedge of California Privet
100 feet in length, would require 267 plants.

Other deciduous shrubs for hedges should be planted about twelve inches apart.
PRUNING

Evergreens should be pruned in spring, just before they commence growing. Summer pruning may
be practiced on the Arbor Vite should the growth be too rapid.

California Privet should be cut down to within six inches of the ground just as soonas planted. This
will induce a vigorous growth and make a dense hedge.

EVERGREEN HEDGE PLANTS

The roots of all Evergreens will be furnished with ball of earth wrapped in burlap.

HERBACEOUS PAONIES

A noble flower, almost rivaling the Rose in brilliancy of
color and perfection of bloom, and the Rhododendron in
stately growth. The first point in its favor is hardiness. It
may be truly said to be “hardy as an oak.’’ In the severest
climate the, plants require no other protection than that
which they afford themselves. Then their vigorous habit
and healthy growth, freedom from all diseases and insects
are important arguments in favor of their cultivation. Each
succeeding year adds to their size and beauty. The foli-
age is rich and glossy and of a beautiful deep green color,
thus rendering the plants very ornamental even when out of
flower. The newer varieties produce very large, handsome,
regularly formed cupped blooms, resembling large roses. No
other flower is so well adapted for large, showy bouquets.
The Peony may be planted either singly on the lawn or in
borders. Where the lawn is extensive a large bed makes a
grand show, surpassing a bed of Rhododendrons. It is really
a flower for the million. It flowers early in June. Our col-
lection has been made with great care and includes the best
and most distinct varieties.

Varieties priced per each only, are net and can be
furnished in limited quantities. Not less than five

HARDY PHLOXES

PHLOX

Are of vigorous habit, easy culture and produce in great
profusion during a long season, flowers of fine form and sub-
stance and of bright and varied colors. As regards their cul-
ture, it may be briefly stated that they succeed in any good
garden soil, but they are greatly improved by being liberally
manured, and an occasional supply of liquid manure during
the growing season will greatly increase the size of their
trusses. When in flower they should be watered freely every
evening. The Phlox usually flowers in July and August, and
in order to render it autumnal flowering, it is necessary to
pinch the shoots about the first of June and again in July.
The plants will then flower in September. For early flowers
some of the plants may be left unpinched. When two years
old the finest trusses are produced. The third year the plants
flower tolerably well; but they will not keep thrifty and
healthy after that. The old plants should then be lifted in
the fall, divided and transplanted. But the better plan is to
keep up a succession of young plants from cuttings by secur-
ing a fresh collection every year. We annually introduce all
new and desirable varieties of home and foreign production.
The best time to plant them isin the autumn. Our plants
are large and fine.

ROSE DEPARTMENT

<Jo

The Rose is a specialty with us and we propagate it on a most extensive scale.

We annually import all new varieties of apparent merit and carefully test them, retaining only such
kinds as prove meritorious, and the same course is pursued with regard to novelties originated in this
country, so that our collection embraces the best.

We endeavor, in our Catalogue, to present the merits of each variety fairly and faithfully, being
cautious not to overpraise, preferring to say too little rather than too much. Recognizing the importance
of robust, healthy habit, hardiness and freedom of bloom, combined with beauty of flower, we propagate
largely varieties possessing these characteristics, and most strongly and confidently recommend such
kinds for general planting; and we also give due attention to those choice and beautiful varieties which are
less vigorous ‘or robust, and which therefore require extra care to be grown to perfection. In the hands of
the rose lover these moderate growers receive the attention they justly deserve, and amply repay the skill
and care bestowed upon them.

Our immense stock and great variety of hardy roses enable us to furnish assortments adapted to various
purposes, and intending purchasers are invited to examine our lists, and whenever we can be of any assist-
ance in making selections our services will be cheerfully given.

MANETTI STOCK

We propagate roses principally by budding them low on the Manetti. We find many varieties of
roses grown on this stock adapt themselves to a greater range of climate and soil, bloom more profusely,
endure better the heat of the summer, and make far stronger plants than if grown on their own roots.
Many object to budded roses on account of the suckers they sometimes throw out; but if proper attention
is paid to the planting, this will rarely be an annoyance.

Budded roses should be planted sufficiently deep, so that the junction of the bud with the stock is from two
to three inches below the surface of the earth. We cannot too forcibly direct attention to the above rule.

BRIEF DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING, ETC.

When to Plant.—If the situation be not too much exposed where the roses are to be set out, we pre-
fer fall planting for all hardy kinds. Dormant plants set out in the spring should be planted early, for
no plant suffers more from being set out late than the rose. The plants should be put in friable, rich soil,
and firmly pressed in with the foot, taking care not to bruise the roots.

Pruning.—This operation is best performed during March. Most roses do better if moderately pruned;
some sorts require two-thirds of the past year’s growth removed; for others, to remove one-half or one-third
is sufficient. All must be more or less pruned when planted ; do not neglect this. Asa general rule, the more
vigorous the variety the less it should be pruned. All weak or decayed wood should be entirely cut out,
and also any shoots that crowd the plant, and prevent free entrance of light and air. Besides spring
pruning, many kinds of Hybrid Perpetuals require to be pruned as soon as their first blossoming is over, in
order to induce a free display of flowers in autumn.

Protection.—All roses would be better for a light covering. This may be done by hilling up with
earth; or better, by strewing leaves or straw lightly over the plants and securing them with evergreen
branches; oftentimes the latter are in themselves sufficient.

Insects.—If proper attention is paid to soil, planting, watering, etc., and a few simple directions
heeded, you will not often be greatly troubled. The Aphis is among the most annoying foes, and particu-
larly infests plants in houses; healthy plants in the garden are but little liable to its attacks. There are
numerous recipes for its destruction, and the cultivator can use those which are most convenient and
efficacious. .

BRIEF DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING, ETC.— Continued

The vapor of tobacco is very effective in destroying insects. It is customary to strew the ground under
the plants with tobacco stems, which being moistened by the syringing creates a vapor which is destructive
to insect life.

In the month of May, or as soon as the leaves have pushed forth, the rose caterpillar makes it appear-
ance; he can readily be detected, for he glues a leaf or two together to form his shelter. Every day the
bushes should be gone over, and these glued leaves pinched between the finger and thumb, so as to crush
the caterpillar; let no fastidious grower neglect this, or be induced to try other remedies; this is the only
one that is simple and effective. For other insects, such as the saw fly, larvae, and all such as come ata
later date than the caterpillar, an occasional syringing, vigorously applied, will prove an excellent prevent-
ive. When they have made their appearance, a sprinkling of powdered white hellebore over the plants will
often destroy or disperse them; but the plants should be well moistened before the hellebore is applied, so
that it will remain.

For the rose bug, hand picking must be resorted to; it is proof against hellebore, whale-oil soap, and
all such applications.

Mildew.—This disease is generally caused by extremes of heat and cold, and by a long continuance of
damp, cloudy weather. The best remedies are sulphur and soot; one of these should be applied the moment
the disease makes its appearance. Itis a good plan to previously sprinkle the plants with water, so that
the substance applied will adhere.

ADVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS

See also Second Page of Cover

Amateurs in ordering will do well to leave the selections to us so far as possible, but our list is open to
all to make their own selections. Purchasers, however, will please say if they wish us to substitute in case all
the varieties ordered cannot be supplied.

Roses by Express.—When no directions are given as to what way the plants are to be sent, we always
Sorward by Express at the purchaser’s cost. The plants which we send in this way (except the new and very
scarce varieties) are one-year-old buds, and are dormant. These plants are the only ones suitable for imme-
diate effective results.

Note carefully the habit of growth as stated in the description, and you will not be disappointed in
the size of the plants. We have the v ery best quality of each kind that it is possible to grow.

ABBREVIATIONS USED, DESCRIBING THE HABIT OF GROWTH

Vig.—For vigorous, being those varieties which are most rampant in growth and produce long, strong
shoots.

Mod.—Moderate; these make a fair, compact growth, but less strong than the preceding.
Dwf.—These are the most delicate or slow growing sorts.

MANNER OF DESCRIPTION

lst.—Habit of Growth.—Vig., free, mod., dwf.
2d.—Color.—The prevailing shade in the most perfect development of the flower.

3d.—Size.—Smatt: Flowers from 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Merpitum: 2 to 3 inches. Larce: 3to4

petals, but which show the stamens when fully blown. Furi: When the stamens are hid.

5th.—Form.—Cvprep: Inner petals shorter than the outer ones, the latter stand erect and are gener-
ally somewhat incurved. Grosutar: Outer petals are concave with convex edges, folding richly one
about the other, tapering from thecenter. Frar: The surface of the flower is level or nearly even, and all
the petals are exposed to view.

6th—Peculiarities of foliage, thorns, number of leaflets, fragrance, etc.
It is hoped that the above will make intelligible the terms used to describe the different varieties.

Particular attention is called to the care we have always exercised in keep-

ing our stock true to name, and also that, with very few exceptions, separately noted,
we grow those sorts only that are thoroughly distinct, and of healthy habit. Also

our plants are large, healthy and vigorous, 2 years field grown,
and will bloom first season after planting.

AYRSHIRE ROSES

These are of slender, rapid growth, often running fifteen
feet in one season, and are used in covering buildings, etc.
They do not require richsoil, and should be pruned very little,
or not.at all.

Bennett’s Seedling, vig. Pure white double flowers
of medium size.

CLIMBING POLY ANTHA ROSES (Ramblers)

The popular “‘ Crimson Rambler ’”’ is the type of this family
and is still regarded as one of the best climbers grown. Since
its introduction a few years ago many new varieties of ster-
ling merit have been brought out so that the collection now
offered embraces a charming and varied assortment, of both
double and single flowered varieties of every shade of color,
all well adapted for covering arches, pillars, pergolas, veran-
dahs, trellises, etc. They are all vigorous growers and pro-
duce their flowers abundantly and in large trusses.

Blush Rambler, vig. In growth similar to Crim-
son Rambler; flowers single, perfectly round,
very fragrant, and produced in large clusters;
color a rich blush. A free bloomer.

Crimson Rambler. The wonderful Japanese Rose,
by far the most important and valuable acqui-
sition of recent years. Itis arunning or climbing
rose of vigorous habit, strong and rapid growth,
with handsome, shining foliage, and produces in
marvelous abundance clusters of the brightest
crimson semi-double roses. Its clustered form,
its brilliancy, the abundance of its bloom, and
the great length of time the flowers remain on
the plant without falling or losing their bril-
liancy, are qualities which make this a great
favorite. For verandahs, walls, pillars, and
fences, it is a most suitable plant. If grown in
beds and pegged down it produces marvelous
heads of bloom, or it can be grown in bush
form and thus becomes a most striking object.
But it is not only for out-door use that is valu-
able; it can be employed most satisfactorily for
decorating in-doors when grown in pots, and
for forcing at Easter time when pot-grown
specimens bring high prices.

Dawson, vig. A vigorous and hardy plant with a
tendency to climb high. Flowers are clustered
like those of the Rosa Multiflora. ‘They are
quite full, of a deep pink color, and very fra-
grant.

Debutante, vig. Very double, in clusters, soft
pink, fragrant.

Helene, vig. Large, pale violet rose, with yellow-
ish white center and borne in clusters. A strong
grower and free bloomer; effective.

We do not have agents. Buy direct from the grower and do
away with the middleman’s profit and agent’s commission.

Leuchtstern, vig. Single, in large clusters, bright
rose with a distinct white eye, like a Cineraria;
foliage and habit resembling Crimson Rambler.
A very distinct and valuable variety.

Multiflora Japonica. A charming species, intro-
duced from Japan more than a century ago, but
only recently brought to notice. It is exceed-
ingly free-blooming, and towards the end of
June the plant is covered with great clusters of
small white, single, sweetly fragrant flowers,
in which the golden-colored anthers make a
charming contrast with the snowy-white petals.
It is extremely hardy and grows rapidly, and is
a valuable shrub.

Paul’s Carmine Pillar, vig. Very large, single,
bright rosy carmine, and produced abundantly.
Grows ten to twelve feet in a season.

Philadelphia Rambler, vig. An improvement on
the famous Crimson Rambler, flowers being
larger, much more double, and of a lighter
crimson color.

Queen Alexandra, vig. Rosy pink, produced in
clusters, a strong grower and free bloomer.

Rubin, vig. Resembles Crimson Rambler, but has
larger flowers of a deep red or ruby color.
Very attractive.

Waltham Rambler, vig. An attractive variety,
bearing large panicles of rosy pink single flow-
ers, slightly paler in the center and showing the
yellow stamens. A strong grower.

Wedding Bells, vig. White, base of petals soft
pink; very free flowering.

White Rambler (Thalia), vig. Small or medium,
daisy-like, pretty white flowers in large clus-
ters; fragrant; very ornamental.

Yellow Rambler (Aglaia), vig. Yellow in bud,
but white when fully open; when half open the
flowers are tinged with yellow, slightly fra-
grant. Plantvigorous and free-blooming; hardy,
very pretty and desirable.

NEW RAMBLERS OF EXTRAORDINARY
MERIT

Mrs. Flight. Beautiful pink, semi-double. A
strong grower and a very free bloomer. One of
the best.

Tausendschon, or Thousand Beauties. Cannot
be too highly recommended on account of its
free flowering qualities and beautiful white and
delicate pink blossoms. It has already been
recognized by the leading florists, and is grown
in large quantities now for winter forcing, and
for garden decoration it cannot be surpassed.

MRS. FLIGHT

THE VIOLET BLUE RAMBLER

Veilchenblau (Violet Blue). This new rambler,
which is hailed by the German rose growers as
the forerunner of a genuinely cornflower blue
rose, is a seedling of Crimson Rambler. The blos-
soms, massed in large umbels, are semi-double,
of medium size. The color on first unfolding
is either reddish pink or purplish pink, then
turns amethyst, and finally steel blue as the
flower fades. The general color impression is
that of the March violet. The yellow stamens
appear in sharp contrast to the blue petals. The
plant is vigorous in growth, with shining green
foliage and few but sharp thorns. Very hardy.

NEW RAMBLERS
Said to be Everblooming

Flower of Fairfield. A sport from the famous
and beautiful Crimson Rambler, similar in color,
but more brilliant and more lasting than the old
favorite. It possesses a further advantage over
any other Rambler in the fact that it flowers
profusely on the young wood in its first year.
Of vigorous growth, and when in bloom super-
sedes anything else by the wonderful display of
its brilliant crimson clusters of blossoms.

Miss G. Mesman (Climbing Baby Rambler).
Bears large, compact panicles of bright carmine
flowers. As strong a grower as Crimson Ram-
bler but not as thorny and free from mildew.

Trier. Flowers pale salmon pink with yellow
anthers; flowers small, almost single, produced
in large clusters; dark green leathery foliage.

PRAIRIE ROSES

These are among the most valuable of climbers. The fol-
age is rough, large, with five leaflets generally of a dark color;
for rapidity of growth they equal the Ayrshires, and surpass
all climbers in hardiness. The flowers are produced in large
clusters late in the season when other summer roses are
gone. When it is desired to cover walls, unsightly buildings,
etc., with roses, none will be found to do the work so effi-
ciently as varieties of the Prairie Rose.

Baltimore Belle, vig. Pale blush, becoming nearly
white; compact and fine.

Queen of the Prairie, vig.

WICHURIANA ROSES (Climbing and
Trailing)

This section embraces some very valuable and interesting
material for covering rockwork, creeping over banks and tree
stumps, also for use as pillar roses. The hybrids introduced
in the last few years are remarkable for their beauty and
will have many admirers as soon as they become known.
The many acquisitions in this class should result in creating
a fresh interest in Rose culture.

Alberic Barbier, vig. Semi-double or double, in
clusters; creamy white, canary yellow in cen-
ter, darker yellow in bud; fragrant. A strong
grower.

sion in clusters on the end of every branch,
after the June roses are past, from the first
week in July punoue nour the month. They are
pure white, 114 to 2 inches across, with yellow
stamens, and having a strong fragrance. It is
quite hardy, with the exception of the latest
immature growth, which may be cut back to
some extent. This variety has proved valuable
as a covering for banks, rockeries, etc., and for
use in cemeteries.

Wichuriana Rubra, vig. Single, bright scarlet,
in large clusters, with orange red stamens.
Beautiful and effective.

NEW CLIMBING ROSE

Climbing American Beauty. Color rosy crim-
son, similar to its pollen parent; flower three to
four inches in diameter, finely formed on long
stems. Blooms very freely in May and June,
and occasionally during the summer. The plant
is a strong grower, making shoots ten to twelve
feet in a season, and perfectly hardy. Foliage
deep glossy green; does not mildew; is not sub-
ject to black spots, and remains on until frost.
$1.50 each.

BEST NEW CLIMBING ROSE

American Pillar. Flowers large, single, 214 to 3
inches in diameter, of a lovely, rich shade of
pink with large white centers, and produced in
immense clusters, being very showy and attrac-
tive. The growth is remarkably strong, vigorous
and rapid, and foliage is round, dark green,
tough, shiny and insect proof. In autumn the
clusters of seed heps are an additional attrac-
tion. Unquestionably one of the finest single
climbing roses known, and it will be prized for
its hardiness, strong, rapid growth, healthy foli-
age and wealth of beautiful flowers.

ROSES WHICH GROW IN BUSH FORM

AUSTRIAN OR YELLOW ROSES

These require careful pruning. Remove weakly wood
altogether, and only shorten a few inches the shoots left for
flowering. If pruned close they will not bloom, as the flow-
ers are produced from the terminal shoots of the old wood.

coppery red, outside of petals dull gold. Very
effective.

Austrian Yellow, vig. Single flowers, rich golden
yellow.

full. It is desirable to grow more than one
plant, and by pruning one this year in the usual
way, and the other plant the next year, annual
crops of flowers may be had.

grant; buds conical shaped; color varying from
gold and orange yellow to reddish-gold, shaded

orange, striped with brilliant scarlet bars, toning
to sunflower yellow when fully expanded; the
deepest colored of any yellow rose; flowers pro-
duced in great abundance. $1.00 each.

MOSS ROSES

This is a favorite class with everyone, on account of the
beautiful buds, which, for bouquets and cut flowers, are
invaluable.

They are subject, as a class, to mildew, and require close
pruning and high culture. They amply repay careful atten-
tion by the increased size and beauty of the flowers. They are
all very hardy. The foliage is generally somewhat crimpled,
and has mostly seven leaflets.

Blanche Moreau, vig. Pure white, large, full, and

soms very early in spring.

HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES

This class thrives the best in a rich soil. The pruning
should be regulated by the habit of growth, the weak shoots
should be closely cut in, those which are vigorous left longer.
Most of the varieties are fragrant.

Although they are styled perpetual bloomers, none of them
are such in reality. However, many of them yield a fair sec-
ond crop of flowers in the autumn, which is very acceptable,
Aside from this, there is no class, take it all in all, so popular
and which gives such general satisfaction.

RUGOSA ROSES AND THEIR HYBRIDS

This valuable and interesting group is of Japanese origin.
The plants are vigorous growers, attaining a height of three
to four feet, have handsome foliage, and bear seed pods
which are very ornamental. These desirable qualities, added
to exceptional hardiness, render this one of the most valua-
ble collections in the catalogue for general planting. The
flowers of both single and double varieties are beautiful and
freely produced, but cannot be used as cut flowers on account
of their thorns. The recently introduced doubles like Conrad
F. Meyer, Blanc Double de Coubert and Nova Zembla, are
acquisitions of great merit. They are all continuous bloom-
ers and particularly valuable for garden decoration.

Agnes Emily Carman. Flowers in clusters; bril-
liant crimson, of the shade of Gen. Jacqueminot;
very free blooming, and continuing in bloom
nearly all summer; a rampant grower, hand-
some foliage, and very hardy.

RUGOSA ROSES—Continued

Conrad F. Meyer, vig. Flowers large, 314 to 4
inches across, bud well formed, color silvery
rose; fragrant; very valuable on account of its
hardiness and vigor.

““A rose that seems to come midway between La France
and Mme. G. Luizet, both in form and color, but with a
growth almost as lusty as a Lilac, would, I think, be a true
description of the above splendid variety. It is deliciously
fragrant, and the foliage has that leathery texture that
enables it to withstand cutting winds and even slight frosts,
so that instead of a plant marred by the climatic vicissitudes
of the spring, we have one a picture of health. I could not
name a better rose for a town grower.’’—Garden, London,
Eng.

Madame G. Bruant, vig. In the bud state the
flowers are long and pointed, when open, semi-
double; pure white and fragrant, and produced
freely in clusters at intervals throughout the
summer; exceptionally hardy and vigorous;
forms a handsome bush. Budded plants.

Nova Zembla, vig. A sport of the Conrad F.
Meyer, with large, well-shaped white flowers;

ers single, of a most beautiful bright rosy crim-
son, succeeded by large berries of a rich rosy
red color, and are a great addition to the orna-
mental character of the plant. Makes a beauti-
ful low hedge.

HYBRID NOISETTE ROSES

This is a group of considerable importance. They gener-
ally flower in small clusters, and bloom freely throughout the
year. The flowers are mostly white, and though small are
generally of good form. They require alittle more care in
their protection than the Hybrid Perpetuals.

HYBRID TEA AND TEA ROSES
(Half Hardy)

The roses included in this section are valued especially
for their free and continuous blooming qualities which render
them particularly useful to plant in beds and groups for the
ornamentation of the lawn or to grow in the garden for a
supply of cut flowers for decorative purposes.

The collection embraces several of the choicest roses
which can be recommended in the strongest terms to plant-
ers with the suggestion that they require better winter pro-
tection than do the Hybrid Perpetuals. The plants need to
be well banked up with earth and covered with straw or
evergreen boughs, while those planted in beds should also be
protected with boards to keep off wet and moisture.

The extra care devoted to the roses in this class will be
amply repaid in the satisfactory flowers produced abundantly
and continuously during the summer.

Caroline Testout [H.T.], vig. Large and double,
color clear bright rose, very sweet, resembling
La France, but of more sturdy habit, very free
flowering; one of the best roses.

Etoile de France [H. T.], vig. Velvety crimson,
on stiff erect stems, cupped form; continuous
and free flowering; very fragrant.

Gruss an Teplitz [H. T.], vig. Color scarlet,
shading to velvety crimson, very fragrant, a
free grower and most profuse bloomer; hand-
some foliage, especially valuable as a bedding
rose. We can recommend it as one of the
choicest roses.

Kaiserin Augusta Victoria [H. T.], vig. White,
faintly blended with cream color; very large,
full and double, almost perfect in form, and it
continues beautiful even when fully expanded;
very free flowering.

Killarney [H. T.], vig. Color flesh, shaded white,
suffused pale pink flowers; large buds, long and
pointed; and blooms profusely throughout 1 the
season.

La France [H. T.], mod. or free. Delicate silvery

of fine globular form; a most constant bloomer.
One of the sweetest and most useful of all roses.

Jonkheer J. L. Mock. One of the most promising
of recently introduced roses. It is vigorous and
sends up strong, erect, flowering shoots; the
flowers are of perfect form, of a lovely carmine
color, changing to pink, and highly fragrant;
they possess the marked peculiarity of develop-
ing slowly and lasting for a long time. In our
opinion this rose has a great future. $1.00

DWARF POLYANTHA ROSES
Ideal Bedding Roses, Admirably Suited for Bouquets
and Boutonnieres.

This is a novel, distinct and charming class of roses. The
plant is of dwarf habit and bears abundantly and continu-
ously clusters of dainty, small flowers, of perfect form and
of various shades of color. While they are admirably suited
to cut for bouquets and boutonnieres, they are ideal bedding
roses, and supply a long felt want among rose culturists for
that purpose. To obtain the best results they should be
planted in beds or masses, 25, 50 or 100 plants together, thus
Insuring a very effective group. These important and valu-
able additions should give a new impetus to rose culture,
Anny Miller (Rosre-cotorrep Basy Ramster), vig.

Large clusters of brilliant rose-colored flowers

in great profusion. A splendid bedding variety.

One of the most valuable roses.

Katherine Zeimet, vig. Pure white in large clus-
ters; very free flowering; one of the best.

Madame Norbert Levavasseur (Crimson Baby
Rambler), vig. Hardy, vigorous and perpet-
ual flowering. The flowers are large, well
formed, of a crimson red color, and borne in
clusters. For growing in pots in the house, or
as a bedding variety, it will be found invaluable.

Maman Levavasseur (Baby Dorothy), (Pink
Baby Rambler), vig. Clear brilliant pink and
very freely produced.

NEW GOLD MEDAL ROSE

Orleans. One of the most valuable of the Dwarf
Polyantha section. The plant is vigorous, very
free flowering, and the trusses are very large;
color, geranium red suffused with rose. It flow-
ers allsummer. It is said to be the best Poly-
antha ever raised. We regard it as a most
important acquisition for bedding.

“The Orleans Rose is, without a doubt, the best of the

Dwarf Polyantha varieties. The pyramidal trusses of bloom

are of immense size, making a highly decorative pot plant.”
—London Garden.

NEW BABY RAMBLERS

Joan of Arc. A new and distinct variety with
large white flowers; very promising.

Phyllis. Dwarf Bedding Polyantha. One of the
best Polyanthas for bedding; a vigorous grower
and good bloomer till frost sets in; flowers
bright carmine pink, shading to white in the
center.

Jessie. Dwarf Bedding Polyantha. Another charm-
ing novelty. Blooms constantly until killed by
frost. Flowers disposed in huge clusters and of
a bright cherry crimson color, which does not
fade or develop the objectionable purple tints.
It is by far the best crimson variety yet placed
upon the market and an ideal rose for pot
culture, massing or bedding.

Mrs. Taft. An improved Crimson ‘‘ Baby Ram-
bler.’? Color rosy crimson; a good shade.
Mrs. W. H. Cuthush. Flowers in large trusses
