EVERBLOOMING ROSES— SHADES OF RED, continued 



•LORD CHARLEMONT. H.T. (New.) See description, page 40. 



•MISS C. E. VAN ROSSEM. H.Bengal. (Illustrated above.) Brilliant, 

 glowing pure crimson color which darkens with age but does not blue. The habit 

 of growth is low and spreading, which makes this Rose ideal for bedding as it is 

 continuously in bloom. The half-opened buds are just right for boutonnieres, 

 but the open bloom is rather small and of irregular form. Really a splendid, 

 satisfactory Rose with disease-resistant foliage. $1 each. 



^ •PADRE. (Pemet.) (Illustrated above.) Large, coppery-scarlet blooms, 

 slightly flushed with deep yellow at the base of the petals. Well-shaped buds and 

 handsome, semi-single flowers are borne in candelabra-Iike clusters on long stems, 

 and the unusually brilliant color attracts attention anywhere. Finer in the spring 

 and fall than in summer. Should be planted back of low-growing varieties to hide 

 its bare legs, as the foliage is small and scanty. $1 each. 



•RED RADLANCE. H.T. See in color on page 10. 



•RED STAR. H.T. The very long buds are most attractive and the open, 

 semi-double flower, with large petals, is vivid but not flashy. The blooms flatten 

 out like most few-petaled Roses. Plant grows tall and the foliage is good. A free 

 bloomer which holds its color well. $1 each. 



•SENSATION. H.T. A most temperamental Rose of varied performance 

 which often resents outdoor conditions. With clear weather, mild sun, and 

 moderate moisture, the flowers come deep velvety crimson, sometimes mottled 

 with blackish maroon. It is almost thornless and deliciously fragrant. A fine show 

 Rose but not a strong grower. $1 each. 



•THE GENERAL. H.T. (New.) See description, page 42. 



•THE QUEEN ALEXANDRA ROSE. H.T. A most dignified queen going to 

 a masque ball arrayed as a "jazzy" flapper! The complex old-goId of the bud is 

 revealed as the petals unfurl, gradually showing the most brilliant vermilion- 

 scarlet at the top and pure gold settling at the base of the petals as if by gravity, 

 both being reabsorbed again into a minimum red as the flower ages. A Rose of 

 absolutely unique coloration. The plant is vigorous, side branching, with large, 

 glossy green foliage of the average Pernetiana resistance. N. R. S. Gold Medal, 

 1917. $1 each.
