 Foreign Roses at Bagatelle in 19 30. Golden yellow, 

 conical buds open to sunllower-yellow blooms, darker 

 in the center than on the outside petals. $1.50 each.

 of nian>- colors, predoniinantI> copj^ery orange flushed 

 witii \ ellow and (Hsappearing pink. $1.50 each. 



• CHARLES K.DOUGLAS. H.T. Scarlet-crim- 

 son. One of tiiose reliable Roses which keep color < 

 in the garden. Big, bushy plants with good foliage, 

 producing bloom after bloom — hirge, semi-double, 

 bright red which turns a little lighter with age but 

 never becomes tiresome. It has some fragrance. One 



of tiiose which do well for everybody, everywhere. 75 cts. 



• CHARLES P. KILHAM. H.T. Coral-red and 

 orange. See in color on opposite page. Beautifully 

 formed and exquisitely colored buds open to coral-red 

 with orange base. Fine for cutting and a splendid 

 bedding variety. $1 each. 



• COLETTE CLEMENT. H.T. Coppery rose. Not 

 entirely single jfj^ but almost so. A Rose for brighten- 

 ing garden-beds, it is so free in 

 bloom and vigorous in growth. Use 



it along the shrub-border where 

 color is wanted and cut-flowers 

 are not expected. $1 each.

•Golden Gleam. Very sweet. See description, page9 



•Director Rubio 



• DAINTY BESS. H.T. Soft rose-pink. 

 Large flowers, single, from 3 to 4 inches across, 

 borne in clusters. Large stamens on wine- 

 red filaments give a striking contrast. In our 

 opinion it is the most charming of the dainty, 

 large-flowered single Roses. 75 cts. each. 



• DIANE DE BROGLIE. H.T. Gera- 

 nium-pink. Brilliant pink, with center 

 petals flushed orange from an orange base. 

 Three-inch flowers of 35 petals on strong, 

 upright pedicels. Splendid cut-flower as it 

 lasts long. The plant is of average growth. 

 $1.25 each. 



• DIRECTOR RUBIO. H.T. Cochineal- 

 pink. If this Rose had as good a plant as 

 Radiance we wouldn't be able to grow 

 enough of them. As it is, it takes a good 

 many thousand plants to supply the demand . 

 Everyone who sees it in bloom wants it. 

 The flower is cochineal-pink according to 

 the color-chart, which means a peculiar 



shade of deep pink. We measured blooms this 

 spring that were 73^ inches in diameter, so we 

 can honestly say the flowers are quite large. It 

 is not as double as some but has plenty of petals 

 for its size; and another interesting thing is that 

 the petals are like the ruffled feathers of a swan. 

 In spite of its size it is fragrant. $1.25 each. 



• DUCHESS OF WELLINGTON. H.T. Yellow. There 

 may come a time when The Duchess will be superseded by a 

 better variety of her color and style, but that time is far in 

 the future. A strong, bushy plant which produces bloom 

 after bloom. Its great hardiness makes it an extremely valu- 

 able yellow Rose for the northern states. Extra-long pointed 

 buds of golden orange which open to beautiful saffron flowers 

 of 17 petals; very fragrant. Belongs in everybody's "Best 

 Dozen." 75 cts. each.
