E. HOOKER LA PRANCE ROSE. Mad. Gabriel Luizet—For loveliness in color, fragrance, size and freedom of bloom- ing qualities, this rose has no equal to-day : equally good as a bedding rose out doors. Pink, distinct, very large, cupped shaped: somewhat fragrant. As an exhibition rose, will rank with its rival, Baroness Rothschild. Madame Plantier — Pure white ; medium size, full: flowers produced in great abundance early in the season. Marie Rady—Vermilion, shaded with crimson; large, very full, of fine globular form. A fragrant, superb sort, but a shy bloomer in autumn. A free grower. Magna Charta—Bright pink, suffused with carmine ; very large, full and fragrant, with magnificent foliage. A free bloomer. For the earliest deep color is the best. Marguerite de St. Amande — Bright rose, very beautiful in the bud state; this variety will give more fine blooms in the autumn than almost any other in the class. One of the most valuable roses. Marshall P. Wilder—Raised from the seed of the Gen. Jacqueminot. It is of vig- orous growth, with healthy foliage; flowers large, semi-globular, full, well formed ; color, cherry carmine. In wood, foliage and form of flower, it resembles Alfred Colomb. Maurice Bernardin—Bright crimson, large, moderately full : a good free-flowering sort, often coming in clusters. Mrs. John Laing—New. As a bedding rose this is undoubtedly one of the best varieties yet introduced, being hardly ever out of bloom all summer. Color a beautiful shade of delicate pink : of large size and very fragrant. It is also a good forcer from January Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been
