• BETTY UPRICHARD. H.T. One of the best oi ihc 

 two-tone type. The carmine-colored buds open to 

 medium-sized salmon flowers, suflused with orange on 

 tile inside and with coppery carmine reverse. The f me long 

 petals stand erect and hold last their color on both sides 

 under any weather, at no time showing fatigue. 

 Not very fragrant outdoors, but the perfume de- 

 velops indoors. A worthy Rose, of unusual color 

 and we unreservedly recommend it. A healthy, 

 vigorous, free-blooming leader in thiscolor. $1 each. 



• ABOL. H.T. White. A truly white Rose 

 when the blooms are open, but the buds are 

 occasionally flushed with pink. A most at- 

 tractive feature is the exhilarating fragrance 

 which is rare in white Roses. $1 each. 



• AMI L. CRETTE. H.T. (New, 1930.) 

 Orient-red. A distinct bedding Rose, strong 

 in growth and free blooming. The large, semi- 

 double blooms of coppered Orient-red come 

 bountifully on rigid, upright stems. It is one 

 of the most striking Roses in the garden, with 

 a new and effective coloring. $1.50 each. 



•ANGELE PERNET. Fernet. Orange. A 

 charming bedding Rose, very floriferous, with 

 distinct, attractive coloring of brownish 

 orange, toning to chrome in the center. The 

 plant is a bushy, upright grower with handsome, 

 holly-like foliage. $1 each. 



• ARIEL. Fernet. Great, globular, enchantingly 

 fragrant, brilliant flowers in orange, flame, and yel- 

 low. Good disease-resistant foliage on a vigorous. 

 This Rose upright-growing plant that blooms 



blooms con- ^^^A . in bursts of fine flowers. 



tinuously ^^^^^^Hg^^^^ A unique color. 



$1 each.

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

 One of the most prolific red Roses and especially fine 

 for bedding. Its buds are long-pointed and well 

 formed. The fairly large, semi-double flowers are 

 striking scarlet with a crimson suffusion that turns 

 lighter as the flower ages, but is never unpleasant, 

 and they close up in the evening in a graceful fashion. 

 Slightly fragrant. Its abundant foliage is healthy 

 and very disease-resistant. $1 each. 



• COLUMBLA. H.T. Rose-pink. 

 Steady and always dependable for de- 

 lightfully fragrant, long-stemmed, fully 

 double flowers of deep rose-pink, tinged 

 with yellow at the base of the petals. 

 An ideal cutting Rose, for the stems are 

 almost thorniess. $1 each. 



• DAINTY BESS. H.T. Soft rose- 

 pink. Large flowers, single, from 3 

 to 4 inches across, borne several 

 together. Large stamens on wine- 

 red filaments give a striking con- 

 trast. In our opinion it is the most 

 charming of the dainty, large-flow- 

 ered single Roses. $1 each. 



• HAWLMARK CRIMSON. H.T.^ 



This Rose has the hardiness and the 

 free-blooming qualities of a Bengal 

 ancestor. The pointed buds, which 

 open like the wings of a butterfly, 

 are a very deep velvety crimson- 

 maroon and the semi-single blooms 

 are tea-scented. As a bedding Rose 

 it is peerless. $1 each.
