Hybrid Tea 

 Roses 



These are the roses one nor- 

 mally thinks of when the 

 word "rose" is mentioned. 

 Hybrid Tea roses usually 

 have large, pointed buds and 

 normally come singly to a stem though 

 sometimes two or three. Bloom is in the 

 classic style, being usually high-centered, 

 with good form and substance and with 

 their strong stems are ideal for cutting. 

 Colors and fragrance come in a wide range, 

 depending upon the kind. They normally 

 range from llo to 5 feet in height. Grandi- 

 flora Roses are a cross between the Hybrid 

 Tea and Floribunda and flower in clusters 

 but have the classic form and are suitable 

 for cutting like Hybrid Teas. They usually 

 grow taller than most Floribundas. 



(above) Hybrid Tea. (Cainprubi.) Plant Pat. 2055. This is one of the 

 best all-round white roses in tiie world today. Its blooms are large, 

 pure white and exceptionally beautiful. It's a fresh, cold white, much more beau- 

 tiful than we've been able to portray in the illustration. We just can't seem to 

 capture the cool, clear, crisp beauty of this wonderful white rose. Buds are medium 

 long, solid and somewhat cup-shaped, opening into substantial flowers of 45 petals 

 or more. The fully open bloom is of excellent substance, with classic shape and form 

 and held upright on good straight stems . . . perfect for cutting and exhibiting. 

 This is a good steady producer of bloom all season long, and that late September 

 bloom looks just as good as the first one you cut in June. The plant is quite vigorous 

 — extremely so for a white rose, growing to middle height in a broad but upright 

 fashion, and is as decorative as the splendid white blooms it bears. Foliage is me- 

 dium size, light green and rugged. Sincera's outstanding blooms, fine sturdy plant 

 and excellent foliage offer a full measure of satisfaction from every standpoint.

 Hybrid Tea. 

 ^ (Swim & Weeks.) Plant Pat. 

 ■^ 2370. We believe this to be the 

 finest red rose of all time. Strong, 

 vibrant and beautiful. Mister Lincoln 

 produces masses of deep, velvety-red 

 blooms, 6 inches wide and more, that 

 stand tall on the strong plant. The 

 bud is long, full and well pointed, be- 

 coming urn-shaped as the large petals 

 begin to curl back from their high 

 centers. The very fragrant flowers 

 are ideal for cutting — long-stemmed 

 beauties that hold their form and 

 color well and look especially bril- 

 liant in a bouquet. With heavy, well- 

 branched, long canes. Mister Lincoln, 

 used as a plant standing alone or 

 placed in the "back row," lifts your 

 garden to new heights of beauty. 

 Large, glossy, dark green leaves are 

 tailor-made for this very vigorous, 

 upright plant, for they cover it ex- 

 ceptionally well from the ground up.
