ANGELUS. (Fred Lemon). Columbia X 

 Ophelia. White, cream tinted center. 

 A big, rounded Rose, like Premier In 

 form but with higher center; very 

 lasting, and fragrant. Foliage dark 

 green, disease-resistant. A vigorous, 

 upright grower and free in bloom. 

 Resembles Kaiserin Augusta, but is 

 quite full, 40 to 45 petals and unlike 

 Kaiserin it blooms freely in Winter 

 and is a good keeper. Was awarded 

 Certificate of Merit of the Commercial 

 Flower Growers of Chicago in 1921; 

 also Silver Medal of the New York 

 Flower Show, Spring of 1921. 



HILL'S AMERICA for iga.'J. (The E. 

 G. Hill Co.) Rose Premier X Hoosier 

 Beauty. Bud long and pointed; flower 

 immense; strong in texture, a good 

 keeper. Foliage large, dark green; 

 stems almost thornless and strong. 

 Re.sembles Columbia in its extraor- 

 dinary, strong, quick growth and does 

 not crimp the outer petals under any 

 growing conditions; scores very high 

 on form and size. The color is a gor- 

 geous rose-pink. Quite distinct; a fine 

 addition to the "Big Rose" Class.

(Jos. H. Hill Co.). 

 Sport from Columbia. Brilliant velvety 

 crimson-scarlet, much the tone of 

 Hoosier Beauty, never blues. Not so 

 full as the parent, but v^BJt-h^sting and 

 with June-rose fragran^, THfc foliage 

 is ample and beautiful. No* forcing 

 Rose makes so quick a comeback as 

 the Red Columbia, consequently while 

 it Is not so full as the parent, its big 

 crops of gorgeous red at Thanksgiving, 

 again at Christmas, then at Valentine's 

 Day, and on up to hot weather make 

 it extremely profitable. Price: Own 

 root $150.00 per 1000; grafted $2.50.00 

 per 1000,
