Introductions of The Rose World's Most Noted Specialists 



Lord Rossmore (Dr. J. Campbell Hall, 1928). Globular blooms of 

 great size and of good substance. The outer reflexing petals are 

 creamy yellow and the central mass of petals is variousl5- tinted with 

 salmon blush, flesh or pink and of delicate tea scents The growth is 

 ver.v strong and free. S2.50 each. 

 Lucie Marie (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). Very long pointed 

 buds, deep yeOow splashed with red. As the outer petals unfold, the 

 inner face is 3'eUow with coppery venation with the tips of the petals 

 lightly touched with pink, slightly fragrant. It is of strong vigorous 

 healthy habit of growth. A most distinct and interesting bedding 

 variety. SI. 50 each. 

 Marion Gran (McGredy, 1927). The color combination is wonder- 

 ful. In the }"Oung stage the color is deep buttercup-yeUow, margined 

 and flushed cerise and rosy-scarlet. As the flower opens the outside 

 of the petals retain their color, while the inner side opens a brilliant 

 geranium scarlet flushed and veined orange and yellow, passing 

 to a deep cerise on bright rosy-scarlet flushed buttercup-yeUow. 

 The flowers are full, of nice form, and medium size. SI. 50 each. 

 May Wettern (Alex. Dickson, 1928). A magnificently formed bud and 

 flower of moderate fullness and artistic coloring. The flowers are com- 

 posed of immense, deep, wide petals of very solid te.tture, their forma- 

 tion making a beautifully built long bud and high pointed flower, in 

 which the inner face of the petals evolves from a bright salmon pink in 

 the bud to deep flesh pink; then to bright pink in the more developed 

 flower ;J;he outer side passes from deep rose to rosy pink, the blending 

 of these tones creating a wonderful color harmony. Free flowering and 

 sweetly scented. 81.50 each. 

 McGredy's Scarlet. (McGredy & Son, 1930). A new red Rose of 

 marked superiority on account of its strong vigorous growth free and 

 continuous habit of flowering and its briUiant color. The flowers are of 

 good size, full double of a brilliant scarlet, orangy yellow at base of 

 petals, the upper portions of same being lightly touched with crimson, 

 varying some in color under changing weather conditions but always 

 beautiful. $1.50 each.

 ful, the large, well-formed double flowers on first opening are

Lady Barnby (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). Beautifully 

 formed flowers very much on the type of Mrs. Henry Bowles,

 reliable bedding varieties, but Lady Barnby differs in color, 

 it being a lovely shade of clear rose pink. The plant is of

 this variety we have the rare combination of sweetest fra- 

 grance and brilliancy in coloring. The blossoms, of good 

 size, are rosy-scarlet in the early stages and as they develop 

 this passes to a scarlet-carmine suffused with saffron yellow 

 on a yellow base, warm and glowing. Plant of free, upright, 

 bushy growth. SI. 50 each.

 outstanding merit. Of strong, vigorous, upright, branching
