Everblooming Star Roses, continued 



• E. J. LUDDING. H.T. (Van Rossem, 1931.) Car- 

 mine-pink. The large, fully double flowers are carmine- 

 pink, overspread with an orange flush, long lasting, and 

 borne singly on good stems. An ideal Rose for cutting. 

 Tea fragrance. First Class Certificate (the highest 

 award) of the Royal Horticultural Society of the Nether- 

 lands, and Gold Medal of Nos Jungunt Rosae, 1930. 

 $1 each. 



• ELIZABETH OF YORK. H.T. Cerise-pink. Long- 

 pointed buds of deep cerise-pink open to beautiful 

 flowers of iridescent cerise-pink, with a suffusion of 

 yellow; only semi-double but very desirable. Vigorous 

 growth. 75 cts. each. 



• ETOILE DE FEU. H.T. Flame-color. The name 

 "Star of Fire" is very appropriate for this flaming 

 Rose. Its globular buds of glowing flame gradually open 

 to flat blooms of coral-pink and glowing reddish salmon, 

 with myriads of short center petals. Especially fine in 

 hot sunshine. 75 cts. each. 



•ETOILE DEHOLLANDE. H.T. See in color, page 8. 



•FRAU DR. SCHRICKER. H.Ben. Carmine-pink. 

 Symmetrical, bushy plants 18 to 24 inches tall, which 

 bloom all the time. The flowers remind one of the old 

 Hermosa but are of better form and clearer carmine- 

 pink color. 75 cts. each. 



•GOLDEN DAWN. H.T. (Grant, 1929.) Pale yel- 

 low. Lovely bronzy foliage, almost immune to disease, 

 bushy, low-growing plants, and the wonderful rich 

 Tea fragrance all denote its Tea ancestry. Large, 

 globular buds, pale yellow with old-rose markings, 

 open to fully double blooms of soft lemon-yellow which 

 are beautiful until they fall apart. It is rarely out of 

 bloom. $1 each. 



•GOLDEN GLEAM. H.T. See in color, page 8. 



•GRENOBLE. H.T. See in color, page 14. 



•GRUSS AN AACHEN. Ben.-Bour. White to car- 

 mine. A dependable continuous-blooming bedding or 

 border variety. Blooms are large and full and delight- 

 fully colored in the fall. 75 cts. each. 



•GRUSS AN TEPLITZ. H.Ben. Deep crimson. 

 Noted for its pervasive fragrance that is especially 

 delightful. The color is very rich crimson, changing to 

 bright scarlet, shading to velvety fiery red. Makes 

 grand plants for a continuous-blooming hedge. 75 cts. 

 each. 



• HAWLMARK CRIMSON. H.T. Crimson-maroon. 

 A very popular, semi-single Rose of deep crimson and 

 maroon, with blackish shadings, like a piece of dark 

 velvet. Strong perfume. 75 cts. each. 



• IMPERIAL POTENTATE. H.T. Pink. An Ameri- 

 can Rose which has made good everywhere. Large 

 size, faultless form, and a clear self-coior combine to 

 make it one of the best pink Roses for exhibition or cut- 

 flowers for the home. Medium growth and very free 

 in bloom. 75 cts. each. 



•JOYOUS CAVALIER. H.T. Scarlet-crimson. Both 

 in big, bushy plant and in red, new foliage, this re- 

 sembles the well-known Gruss an Teplitz. The semi- 

 double blooms, which are produced as freely, are a 

 jolly red that does not blue. 75 cts. each. 



•JULES GAUJARD. H.T. Orange-rose. Introduced 

 as an improved Souv. de Georges Pernet, it is much 

 the same size as that variety but is of different color. 

 The cochineal-crimson buds open to orange-rose 

 blooms of loose form, intensely fragrant. Medium 

 growth; good foliage. 75 cts. each. 



•JULIEN POTIN. H.T. Golden yellow. In long- 

 pointed form and rich coloring this is the aristocrat 

 of pure yellow Roses. The pointed, clear yellow 

 buds open to splendid golden yellow blooms which 

 hold their color well. The finest yellow for exhibition, 

 for it keeps a long time when cut. $1 each. 



•KAISERIN AUGUSTE VIKTORIA. H.T. Cream- 

 white. Although introduced over forty years ago, this 

 is still the standard by which white Roses are judged. 

 Of splendid form, with petals of great substance, it is a 

 perfect cut-flower, and its perfume is exquisite. 75 cts. 

 each. 



•Director 

 Rubio. 

 $1 each 



•KARDINAL PIFFL. H.T. r Orange-pink. One of the most satisfactory 

 garden Roses we have ever grown. Plants of average growth and with good 

 foliage simply bloom all the time. Ovoid buds of orange-pink, with a golden 

 base, open to fully double flowers of the same lovely shades, which do not fade. 

 Delicious fragrance. Gold Medal, Bagatelle, 1926. 75 cts. each. 



•KONIGIN CAROLA. H.T. Silver-pink. We have looked at the dear old 



Queen a good many times when hunting for varieties to discard to make room 



for novelties, but she is too perfect in form and silvery beauty to 



lose. The big satiny silver-pink flowers are freely produced on 



vigorous plants. Continuously satis- 

 factory. 75 cts. each. 



• DIRECTOR RUBIO. H.T. 



(Pedro Dot, 1929.) Cochineal-pink. 

 See illustration. One of the most 

 striking Roses we have ever grown, 

 and produces the largest Rose- 

 blooms we have ever seen— one 

 great flower measured 73^2 inches in 

 diameter. 



The color is cochineal-pink ac- 

 cording to Ridgway's Color Chart, 

 but that does not describe the bril- 

 liance and beauty of the flower at all 

 stages, from the mammoth, long- 

 pointed bud to the loose, ruffled, 

 open flower, and it doesn't fade. 

 The plant is hardly of average 

 height, but is extra-sturdy, like a 

 low-growing Hybrid Perpetual, and 

 the flowers are held rigidly erect on 

 stout stems. Mild fragrance. A 

 Rose-bed planted entirely with this 

 variety is a brilliant and attractive 

 feature in the garden. Gold Medal, 

 Saverne, 1928. $1 each.
