What Mr. Manda says: "The most remarkable achievement and improvement of a new and distinct type of Hardy Roses that has been made for a generation. The growth is remarkable for its freedom, a single plant, four years old, covering a space of two hundred and forty square feet with long shoots, twelve to twenty-five feet in length, completely covering the ground with its bright, glossy foliage, and showy, fragrant flowers. The same plant has made one hundred and eight new growths of'remarkable strength during the Summer. The foliage of all is leathery in texture, shining, and not only proof against insects, but evergreen—that is, keeping the foliage all Winter—a charac- teristic in Roses never before obtained. The flowers are produced most profusely, are all oflargesize, very fragrant, and can be easily used for cut-flower purposes, as much as any greenhouse Tea Rose, especially when in bud. The use of these Roses will be unlimited—for trailing or covering ground where nothing else would grow, to cover roots, stumps and stems of trees, walls and trellises, for cut-flower purposes, and also for forcing as pot plants during Spring, especially for ; JERSEY BEAUTY.—Extremely vigorous grower, foliage thick, of leathery substance, flow- ers singly or in clusters of two to four, large, single, three inches in diameter, opening pale yel- low, with clusters of bright yellow stamens, which give it a novel appearance.

GARDENIA.—Strong grower, with large, green foliage, flowers produced singly on stems one-half to one foot long when in bud, hardly distinguishable from Perle des Jard
