SELECT HYBRID TEA ROSES, continued 



Columbia. (E. G. Hill Co., 1917.) A popular Rose of great sub- 

 stance and lasting quality when cut. Pale pink on opening, 

 deepening almost to salmon as the flowers age. The flowers 

 are exceptionally fine in autumn. 



Duchess of Atholi. (Dobbie & Co., 1928.) This splendid new 

 Rose is vigorous in habit, bearing freely, large blooms of bright 

 peach-red — a dehghtfully unique coloring. $1.50 each. 



Duchess of Wellington. (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1909.) No- 

 table for its enormous, spindle-like buds of soft, golden yellow, 

 veined and suffused with copper and red. Open flowers are 

 very large and semi-double. 



Eldorado. (Howard & Smith, 1922.) A pure yellow Rose with 

 more petals and better form than most of its color. It is 

 doubtful if any of the more recent yellow Roses are better in 

 color. 



Everest. (Walter Easlea, 1927.) A new, tall-growing Rose of 

 strong, upright habit. The flowers are remarkable for their 

 size, fragrance, and beautiful ivory-white color. $1.50 each. 



Etoile de France. (Pernet-Ducher, 1904.) Probably the best of 

 the older crimson Hybrid Teas. The flowers are quite large, 

 very double, of excellent pointed shape and pure glowing color. 



Etoile de Hollande. (H. A. Verschuren & Sons, 1919.) For 

 general garden purposes, this is one of the finest red Roses. 

 The flowers arc large, of a brilliant scarlet color, and produced 

 continuously throughout the season. $1.25 each. 



Feu Joseph Looymans. (Looymans, 1921.) Pointed buds, 

 opening to large, full, charming blooms of clear yellow with 

 apricot markings at centre. $1.25 each. 



Frank Reader. (H. A. Verschuren & Sons, 1927.) A recent 

 Rose, with large, full, delicately fragrant flowers of light 

 creamy yellow, borne on long strong stem. Vigorous and free- 

 blooming. $1.25 each. 



General MacArthur. (E. G. Hill, 1904.) Free-flowering, pop- 

 ular Rose of bright scarlet-crimson. The buds are exception- 

 ally fine for cutting, and the semi-double blooms make a good 

 show in the garden. 



George C. Waud. (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1908.) Globular buds 

 and flowers with a firm, pointed centre, glowing with a curious 

 scarlet-red unique to this variety. One of the best red Roses 

 in form, especially during the hot weather. 



Golden Ophelia. (B. R. Cant & Sons, 1919.) A c'harming 

 flower of no great size, much like the well-known Opheha in 

 form, but deeply tinted with golden yellow at the base of the 

 petals and paling to cream at the edges. 



Gruss an Teplitz. (Geschwindt, 1897.) A tall, shrubby Rose 

 for backgrounds and hedges. The blooms are scarlet, crimson, 

 and black, and are produced unceasingly from late spring until 

 autumn. Unquestionably the most useful Rose for garden 

 decoration. 



Hadley. (Alex. Montgomery, 1914.) Splendid dark red buds 

 and glowing crimson blooms of beautiful shape, with long stems 

 especially fine for cutting. Unfortunately, the plant lacks 

 bushiness and should be grown for cut-flowers rather than 

 garden effect. 



H. V. Machin. (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1914.) Very vivid crim- 

 son flowers of globular form, produced profusely by a dwarf, 

 robust plant in early summer and autumn. Its fine perform- 

 ance at those seasons justifies its inactivity during the summer. 

 One of the best red Roses. 



Irish Fireflame. (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1913.) A five-petaled 

 Rose, exceptionally handsome in its flame-colored buds and 

 bright salmon-pink flowers, which are particularly beautiful. 

 Very popular with those who like single Roses. 



Irish Hope. (S. McGredy & Son, 1927.) One of the finest of 

 the newer red Roses, with large, fragrant blooms of rich crim- 

 son-scarlet, shaded maroon. $1.25 each. 



Jonkheer J. L. Mock. (M. Leenders & Co., 1909.) Giant buds 

 of great substance, opening to perfect, double, high-pointed 

 flowers^ of two vividly contrasting tones of pink. One of the 

 in the world when the blooms open well. 



Rose, Columbia 



Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria. (Lambert & Reiter, 1891.) The 

 buds and blooms of this pure white Rose are absolutely perfect 

 in form and substance. The plant leaves much to be desired 

 in growth and blooming, but deserves special care for the 

 extreme beauty of its flowers. 



Killarney Double White. (Budlong & Son Co., 1913.) Long, 

 tapered buds and fine, pointed flowers of pure snow-white. 

 Rather a dwarf plant, but blooms freely, and is one of the 

 most popular whites because of its attractive form. 



Killarney Queen. (Budlong & Son Co., 1912.) A brilhant pink, 

 semi-double Rose especially noteworthy for its exquisite buds 

 and the keeping quality of the flowers when cut. This is the 

 best of the many Roses derived from Killarney, at one time 

 the most popiflar Rose in the world. 



Konigin Carola. (Turke, 1903.) A vigorous, erect plant, bear- 

 ing large, cup-like, soft pink blooms with great freedom. One 

 of the most reliable and decorative garden Roses. 



La France. (Guillot fils, 1867.) Very double blooms of rose and 

 silvery pink, grown for its sentimental interest and its unbeat- 

 able fragrance. Generally it is better in rather poor soil. 



Lady Alice Stanley. (S. McGredy & Son, 1909.) Beautiful 

 buds and very large, extremely double blooms of deep rose and 

 soft pink. The massive flowers are quite perfect in form, and 

 it is altogether one of the most desirable Roses grown. 



Lady Ashtown. (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1904.) Golden pink 

 buds, opening to high-pointed blooms of excellent shape and 

 flne fragrance. One of the standard varieties. 



Lady Florence Stronge. (S. McGredy & Son, 1925.) A new 

 Rose of unique coloring — flesh-pink, shaded old-gold and 

 heavfly veined with rose. Delightfully fragrant. $1.25 each. 



Lieutenant Chaure. (Pernet-Ducher, 1910.) Well-shaped buds 

 and cup-Hke, brilliant crimson flowers of great finish and per- 

 fection of form. The plant is not tall, but produces with such 

 freedom throughout the season that it ranks high among the 

 red Roses of fine quality. 



Lord Charlemont. (S_. McGredy & Son, 1922.) One of the best 

 red Roses of recent introduction, with glorious, long-pointed 

 buds, opening to large, fully double, fragrant blooms of intense 

 scarlet-red with darker shadings. $1.50 each. 



Los Angeles. (Howard & Smith, 1916.) Shell-like buds and 

 splendidly formed flowers of glowing salmon-pink and gold, 

 intensely fragrant. One of the most beautiful flowers.
