See illustration, ihis Rose seems to have captured 

 the brilliant colors that we associate with southern 

 Spain, where it originated. It is one of the most 

 attractive of the newer types. The blooms are 

 large, semi-double, coppery orange on the outside 

 of the bloom and pink inside, with pleasing fragrance. 

 In the fall the flowers become more double and more 

 highly colored. They set freely on very erect, 

 vigorous plants, with splendid stems for cutting. 

 This Rose has given us great pleasure, both in the Rose- 

 garden and in our Rose-fields where it was greatly admired 

 by visitors. $1.25 each. 



• GERTRUD HUCK . h.T. Multicolored, 

 colored sport of the lovely Wilhelm Kordes. Bright cochineal- 

 carmine predominates over tints and shades of orange-yellow 

 and buff. Moderate growth; blooms freely in June and again 

 in fall. $1.50 each. 



• JOHANNISZAUBER. h.T. Blood-red. The originator's 

 description is: "Medium size, very double, full, very lasting, 

 dark velvety blood-red, holding well and not fading or burn- 

 ing, borne on long, strong stem." This fully describes the flower 

 as we find it. The plants are of average growth and quite 

 free in bloom. $2 each.

 tions of deep carmine. When open, the 

 flower is high in the center with rolled 

 petals, making a cushion effect. Spicily 

 fragrant, dependable, hardy. Foliage 

 is dark green, leathery, and disease- 

 resistant. $1.50 each. 



*MME. LOUISE TREM- 



long-pointed buds are unmatched in color by any 

 other Rose we know. The base of the petals is rich 

 dafTodil-yellow which becomes heavily flushed with

 glow. Swcetbriar fragrance. $1.25 ea.

 a Hybrid Perpetual. A 

 choice, free-blooming, extra- 

 hardy Rose to brighten the 

 shrubbery border. $1.50 each.
