Hybrid Perpetual Roses.
Dinsmore. (Everblooming.) The flowers are large, perfectly double, of a dazzling scarlet-crimson color, and have the rich, spicy fragrance peculiar to the best Hybrid roses.

Everblooming Hardy Climbing Yellow Tea Rose, Douglas' Climax.
This Rose originated with a Mr. Douglas, of the Congressional greenhouses, at Washington, D. C., more than 35 years ago.  He gave a lady friend a plant of it which has successfully stood the winters of more than a quarter of a century unprotected, and from which our stock was propagated last season.  Douglas' Climax is a tea scented, perfectly hardy yellow everblooming rampant climber, with beautiful large, glossy leaves.  The buds are long and of good size, produced singly and in clusters of 40 and 50.  The color is a sulphur-yellow, and the buds resemble those of La Pactole [sic], having the true Tea fragrance.  Twenty-four hundred buds were cut from the original plant (which covered the whole gable end of a large house) in a single day.  This is the only perfectly hardy everblooming yellow Tea Rose in existence, and we control the entire accessible stock.  It is just the Rose everybody is looking for, and to induce all to grow it, we offer strong plants for only 25 cents each, 5 for $1, 12 for $2.

New American seedling Rose (H. T.), undoubtedly by far the finest variety ever raised in America, and one of the greatest acquisitions ever introduced.  Color beautiful shade of clear deep pink, with a fragrance distinct from any other known variety- a combination of Lemon Verbena, Heliotrope and the old favorite Rose "Centifolia".  The flowers are large, full and elongated, many of them can be cut with stems 2 feet long, with extra-fine, handsome foliage.  It is also an exceedingly free-flowering variety, of strong, vigorous growth, and every shoot produces a Rose.  20 cents.

Virginia.
This elegant new Rose is the result of a cross between M. Niel and Safrano.  We consider it one of the most promising Tea Roses of modern introduction.  It is a vigorous grower, of bushy habit; the blooms are large, double, finely formed, lasting, and of excellent substance, often remaining on the bush until dried up; color light yellow, with a tinge of saffron at the center and reverse of petals a pinkish cast; perfume a delicate and delightful tea scent, similar to that of Marecal Niel, of which it is a pretty miniature.  20 cents.
