THE CREAM OF THE NEW ROSES-Continued 



SIRS. BRYCE ALLAN (H. T.)— Strong Moss-rose 

 perfume. Color carmine-rose. Flowers glob- 

 ular in form, very erect stems, deep green 

 foliage. 

 MRS. CHARLES BELL (Pierson, 1918) — This 

 new Rose will appeal to those who grow Roses 

 out of doors. It may be described as a shell- 

 pink Radiance, and is a sport of that well- 

 known Rose. It has no characteristics which 

 make it distinct from Radiance except that it 

 is shell-pink. Mrs. Chas. Bell, Red Radiance 

 and Radiance offer a range of color that will 

 be welcome, and there are no finer garden 

 Roses for America than these three. 

 MRS. CHARLES RUSSELL (H. T.) — This wonder- 

 ful new American Rose has taken the country 

 by storm. No other forcing Rose except 

 "American Beauty" can compete with it when 

 it comes to counting points. Stems three feet 

 long', stiff and surmounted by grand rosy-pink 

 blooms of the largest size and build. 35 cents, 

 each. 

 MRS. CAMPBELL HALL (Tea) — Delicate creamy- 

 buff, edged or suffused rosy-carmine. The cen- 

 ter of the bloom is warm cerise coral-fawn. 

 Verv deliciously fragrant. Awarded gold 

 medal, N. R. S. 

 MRS. HENRY WINNETT (H. T.) — This is a seed- 

 ling raised by John H. Dunlap, of Canada, and 

 has the distinction of being the first seedling 

 Rose of Canadian origin that has been offered 

 in commerce. In color it is a bright shade of 

 crimson, not so dark as Hadley, and not so 

 light as Richmond. It is a color that pleases 

 the retail storeman and his patrons. The finest 

 of all the red or crimson varieties. The buds 

 are long and well formed. A superb red Rose. 

 35 cents each. 

 3IRS. JOHN COOK — White, suffused with delicate 

 pink describes the color of this strong-growing, 

 big-flowered daughter of Ophelia. The color 

 varies with the season, the flush of pink being 

 more pronounced during cool weather, while 

 the Rose is almost white during the long days 

 of bright sunshine. In bud it is nicely formed, 

 the mature flower opening cup-shaped but ex- 

 panding fully to a large and finely-formed 

 bloom. It is bigger and better in summer than 

 White Killarney and, with its delicate pink in 

 dark weather, is a very charming color. 50c. 

 MRS. MACKELLAR (H. T.)— The glorious blooms 

 make this an imposing Rose. A deep citron 

 New Rose, Premier. or delicate pure canary color. As the large 



blooms gracefully expand the guard petals 

 charmingly reflex and become pearly primrose- 

 MURELLE (T.) — A Rose of the type of Safrano, only white of great decorative beauty. Award of 



a much stronger grower. It is a very free bloomer merit (unanimous), R. H. S., London, 



and is a Rose with a great future. Color rosy-blush 

 flushed with saffron-yellow. 

 NATIONAL EMBLEM (H. T.) — Dark crimson, of perfect 

 shape, habit and inflorescence; as a bedding, massing 

 and cutting Rose it is unique. Buds long and pointed, 

 opening to large, full, handsome flowers of great beauty, 

 flowering freely and continuously. 

 OPHELIA — Salmon-flesh shaded with rose, large, and of 

 perfect shape; of excellent habit; the flowers standing 

 up well on long, stiff stems and produced in great pro- 

 fusion. Excellent for forcing and a fine decorative va- 

 riety. Growth vigorous. Certainly a glorious Rose. Be 

 sure to have "Ophelia" fixed in your memory. 

 PILGRIM — (New.) — In color, a beautiful shade of bright 

 rose-pink. The bud, which opens perfectly, is long and 

 of ideal form. Pilgrim is a Rose of good substance and 

 petalage, and at any stage of development is perfect in 

 color and form of flower. Its pronounced tea fragrance 

 will attract all Rose lovers. It is prolific and highly pro- 

 ductive of first quality blooms. The stems ars straight 

 and strong. It is the pink Rose to grow. 50 cents. 

 PREMIER — This is the long-looked for deep Rose for the 

 garden; a beauty, and one you will be pleased with. It 

 is a very free bloomer, almost smothering the plant. 

 The color is bright and attractive. The growth is all 

 that is to be desired, and altogether a wonderful Rose. 

 50 cents; two-year plants, $1.00. 

 RED RADIANCE (H. T.) — All who know that grand Rose 

 Radiance will welcome this red form of that great fa- 

 vorite. Radiance is a Rose that does well everywhere, 

 a fine grower and free bloomer, and no prettier pink 

 Rose grown. Red Radiance is its exact counterpart ex- 

 cept that the color is a rich deep red. 



MR. P. L. BATTDET (H. T.) — Color carmine-rose flecked 

 with salmon-yellow, center darker. Flowers large and 

 full, vigorous in growth, continuous in bloom. A unique 

 two-tone Rose.
