New IlYHKiii-TEA Kohii liiiT'iv, Suitor. See page 121 



Gruss an Coburg (Felberg, Leclerec, 1927). A promising new 

 variety with brilliant coppery orange red buds and large double, 

 full, very fragrant flowers, of a brilliant combination of fawn, 

 golden yellow and coppery red. A strong healthy grower and a 

 perpetual bloomer. $1.50 each. 



Heinrich Eggers (W. Kordes, 1928). Well shaped long spiral 

 buds and large bold full double high centered flowers of perfect 

 shape. Color an orange tinted pinlc with yellow shadings at 

 base. Very strong free flowering habit. $2.50 each. 



Hilda (Cant & Son, 1928). Large globular bud and \ery large 

 extremely double, very lasting, slightly fragrant flowers of 

 a bright carmine, the inner petals shading to light pink, 

 usually borne several together on long stems. Growth very 

 vigorous, upright and bushy with good healthy foliage; a 

 splendid continuous and profuse bloomer. $1.50 each. 



Hon. Violet Douglas Pennant (Bees, 1927). Long 

 pointed, shapely bud, flowers moderately tea scented, lemon- 

 yellow at base, passing to cream at edges suffused rose 

 madder, general effect, a pleasing blending of cream and rose 

 madder, borne on long stems. Habit good with dark green 

 healthy foliage. $1.50 each. 



Impress (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). A remarkable Rose 

 for size and beauty. When first unfolding the buds are 

 rosy red with orange suffusion, the full blown Camellia- 

 shaped flowers are of a striking salmon cerise with luminous 

 golden sheen. Very vigorous and free flowering. $1.50 each. 



Ivy May (Beckwith & Son, 1925). One of the most attractive 

 varieties of Ophelia type. Color a pretty rose pink running to 

 amber at the base, flushed with gold on the outside and at the 

 edges of the petals; glowing and sparkling. Buds of medium 

 size, long pointed and shapely, opening to fairly double, well- 

 formed, sweetly-scented flowers on long strong stems. Habit 

 vigorous and upright; a very free and continuous bloomer. A 

 splendid garden Rose and a beautiful cut-flower. $1.50 each. 



I. Zingari (J. H. Peniberton, 1925). The most vivid shade of 

 orange scarlet that one can picture, rich and glowing; while 

 the flowers are only semi-double it always attracts attention on 

 account of its rich color and is worthy of a place in every garden. 

 It blooms profusely and continuously, usually in sprays of 

 several blooms; the glossy dark green foliage accentuates its 

 vivid color. $1.50 each. 



James Gibson (McGredy & Son, 1928). A glorious glowing 

 crimson-scarlet with velvety sheen, imparting a lustrous radiance 

 to the large, full, beautifully formed flowers of which every 

 bloom develops to perfection. Its habit of growth is as near 

 perfect as could be desired, being free, bushy, upright and vigor- 

 ous and the flowers are borne profusely all the season. A brilliant 

 Rose of exceptional beauty. $1.50 each. 



Jarvisbrook (Stuart Low, 1928). A splendid large fuU flower of 

 a most dainty and effective color combination, carmine with 

 orange reverse to petal. It is sweetly scented, of vigorous, up- 

 right, branching, healthy habit of growth and remarkably free 

 flowering throughout the season. A meritorious Rose in every 

 respect. $1.50 eaih. 



J. 0. Thornton (Bees, 1926). A most brilliant bright glowing 

 scarlet crimson with buds of exquisite form and fine, full, well- 

 shaped high-centered flowers of great substance, borne singly on 

 long strong stems; of vigorous, free, growth. It may prove to 

 be our best red bedding variety. $1.50. each. 



Joan Cant (Cant, 1929). Reminds in form of the old favorite 

 Aljel Chatenay. Buds very large, long pointed, opening to very 

 large, full double, well-formed, long lasting, intensely fragrant 

 flowers of a pretty shade of salmon pink at the centre, shading 

 brighter on the outside of the petals; the flowers are borne 

 together on long strong stems. A strong vigorous bushy grower, 

 a profuse continuous bloomer. $2.50 each. 



Joanna Hill (J. H. Hill Co., 1928). This new yellow has gained 

 a well merited reputation as a winter cut flower and we believe 

 it will prove equally valuable and meritorious for the garden. 

 The buds are large, long pointed and open to large, full, semi- 

 double, attractive, long lasting, moderately fragrant flowers of 

 a clear yellow with orange yellow heart. Growth vigorous, 

 upright, a profuse bloomer. $1.50 each.
