shade of tangerine-orange with rose suffusion, passing to golden 
rose-pink as the flowers develop. A good free flowering garden 
variety. $1.50 each. 
Edith Nellie Perkins (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1928). 
New this season, a Rose entirely distinct in its coloring 
and of such strong robust growth that it should succeed 
anywhere and produce an abundance of its pretty colored 
flowers. The buds are long and pointed, the outside of 
the petals are of cream and blush shaded with orange at 
the base; the inner face is salmon-pink with golden 
orange base, the flowers are moderately double, produced 
on long stems and sweetly scented. $2.50 each. 
Elizabeth of York (Dobbie & Co., 1927). Beautifully 
formed long pointed buds of a glowing cerise-red with 
yellow suffusion at the base; the petals as they unfold 
spread widely with a splendid reflex ultimately showing the 
stamens. An artistic, dainty, delicately-scented flower. 
$2.00 each. 
Etoile de Hollande (Verschuren & Sons, 1919). Although 
introduced. ten years ago, it is strange to note that the 
great merits of this brilliant red variety have only been 
fully recognized during the past few years. Today it is con- 
sidered the best red garden rose, wherever Roses are grown. 
A strong vigorous healthy grower and free bloomer which 
like the popular Radiance Roses improves in vigor from 
year to year and that succeed everywhere. It is a continu- 
ous bloomer with large, moderately double flowers which are 
particularly attractive in the half blown state. In color, a 
brilliant crimson-red. $1.50 each. 
Frank Reader (Verschuren & Sons, 1927). Among light 
colored Roses, this variety is of outstanding merit. For full 
description, see Dreer’s Gold Medal Dozen on page 142. 
$1.50 each.

On this, and the two pages following, we offer the most recent 
introductions of various Rose specialists with which we include a 
few older meritorious varieties that are not as well known as they 
should be and which deserve special consideration.

ment on the favorite pink variety Columbia. Splendid buds, 
the fully expanded double flowers have high pointed centres of a 
beautiful bright clear rose-pink, sweetly scented; 
vigorous and free flowering. $1.00 each. 
Charles P. Kilham (Beckwith & Sons, 1926). A dis- 
tinct and striking novelty which we know will appeal 
to and please every Rose lover. The buds are long 
pointed of perfect shape, opening to high centered 
perfectly formed full double flowers of a rich and 
brilliant oriental red, flushed with orange and glowing scarlet. 
A vigorous grower; very free flowering and sweetly tea-scented. 
Awarded Gold Medal National Rose Society of England, 
Spring, 1927. $2.50 each. 
Doris Dickson (Sandy Dickson, 1926). Exquisitely formed 
medium-sized flowers, the base color of which is orange cream, 
but so heavily veined and pencilled with deep brilliant cherry 
that it is impossible to adequately describe the unique coloring. 
Growth vigorous, very free flowering, and extremely fragrant. 
A variety that is sure to become a favorite. $1.50 each. 
Duchess of Athol (Dobbie & Co., 1928). The coloring of this 
new variety is uncommon and delightful, an old golden orange 
flushed with peach pink, particularly attractive in the bud and 
open state, growth vigorous, a continuous profuse bloomer.

England. $2.00 each,
