Coppery buff. That the successor to the famous 

 Pernet-Ducher in France had good training is 

 shown by this magnificent Rose from the hand of 

 M. Jules Gaujard. 



Coppery yellow, ovoid buds open to large, cupped 

 blooms of coppery buff, w"ith an overglow of deep 

 salmon. 



It looks quite a httle like the lovely Rev. F. Page- 

 Roberts, but, unhke that variety, is an upright 

 grower, producing great quantities of its fragrant 

 flowers which last long when cut. It blooms freely 

 throughout the entire season, with flowers of 30 

 petals or more on strong, upright pedicels. The 

 more we see of this Rose the better we like it. 



The color meets the requirements of those who 

 like Roses of soft tones, and the coppery buff of this 

 lovely new^ variety will never clash with any other 

 color. The healthiness of the plant and its resistance 

 to disease enhance its value to Rose enthusiasts 

 w^ho know and demand the best. $2 each.

H.T. 



This new^ Rose has brought new 



Rose-blood into the garden. The 



wild Rosa Nutkana, from the cold 



Northwest, was the grandparent 



of this lovely variety. 



It is very large, — 5 inches in 



diameter, — with myriads of 



■^^^ petals, and the color is 



salmon-copper and 



shell -pink. It has 



the fragrance of ripe 



red raspberries. In 



^ % our fields it makes 



p- ^ a gorgeous show, 



t especially in the 



% autumn, w^hen the 



^'^^00' colors are richer 



^iff than at any other 



season. In the north- 

 ern and middle states 

 5' it makes its best show- 

 _^^^ ing, beginning to bloom 

 ^^f with the earliest of the 

 " "^ Hybrid Teas and con- 

 tinuing until frost. The 

 ""- fohage is disease-resistant, 



and the plant has the hardiness 

 and vigor of growth so important 

 in northern gardens. 



Mr. Barron writes of his pleasure that 

 his namesake "flowers freely over a long 

 season and that the fall bloom is even better 

 than the summer bloom." $1.50 each.

The Most Beautiful Rose 

 in France^^ 



''^Souv. de Mme. C. Chambard 



See in color on front cover H. T. 



We had already noted that "this is one of the 

 loveliest Roses ever grown," and our judgment was 

 recently substantiated by the French National 

 Rose Societj% meeting this summer at Lyon, they 

 awarded it a prize for the "most beautiful Rose 

 in France for 1932." It is not only the exquisite 

 beaut}' of the long bud and the splendidly formed 

 flower which commands admiration; it is also one 

 of the finest plants in the garden. The bushes are 

 upright in gro\\1:h and the blooms are held rigidly 

 erect, head and shoulders above all but the very 

 strongest growers. 



The lovely buds of coral and yellow open to a 

 fully double flower of coral-rose-pink, with a satiny 

 sheen which keeps the flower "alive" for days. Not 

 the least of its virtues is its delicious fragrance — it 

 is one of the sweetest Roses we know. 



As if realizing that such wonderful flowers would 

 be wanted for cutting, the plant usually produces 

 them singly on long stems. $2.50 each.
