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 brilliant color. 

 The fragrant, full, double flowers are of good size. They are 

 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 condirions but always 

 beautiful. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Mme. Jules Guerin (Gaujard, 1931). An exceptionally large, 

 fragrant, well formed, full, double flower frequently measuring 

 over 6 inches in diameter. The long, shapely bud when first 

 e.xpanding is golden yellow passing to creamy yellow as it 

 develops. The plant is very vigorous in growth, free flowering, 

 and the blooms are carried on strong stout stems. $1.50 each; 

 $15.00 per doz. 



Mme. Nicolas Aussel (Pemet-Ducher, 1930). Was voted an 

 award of a Gold Medal as "The Most Beautiful Rose in France" 

 in a French contest held Sept. 15, 1931. An outstanding intro- 

 ducdon of the late Mr. Pemet-Ducher. A bright coppery red 

 in the very long, shapely, tapering bud that develops into a 

 large, fragrant, full, double flower of an exquisite opalescent 

 salmon-pink. Vigorous and healthy, free and floriferous. 

 $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Mrs. Sam McGredy 



Mrs. Sam McGredy (McGredy, 1929). The color of this 

 beautiful variety is quite distinct from anything yet seen in 

 Roses, a wonderful dual combination of vivid shades. A 

 beautiful coppery scarlet-orange is heavily flushed with Lincoln- 

 red on the outside of the petals, and these colors together give 

 a rich and almost dazzling effect. The flowers are of large size 

 and beautiful form. They possess the proper fullness to make 

 them useful for all purposes. They are very freely produced 

 and delicately perfumed. The plant has a vigorous and excep- 

 tionally free habit and is one of the best all-purpose varieties. 

 $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Olympiad 



Olympiad (Mme. Raymond Gaujard) (Pernet-Ducher, 1932). 

 This brilliant new red Rose first sent out spring of 1932 is now 

 available in strong plants at popular prices. The color of 

 Olympiad is unique — a lustrous dark Oriental scarlet, its depth 

 of color accentuated by the golden base and intensified by a 

 rich velvety sheen. The bud is long and pointed and the flower 

 magnificent in every stage of development. Awarded Gold 

 Medals during 1932 at the Atlantic City, Philadelphia, and 

 New York Flower Shows. $1.25 each; $12.50 per doz. 



Portadown Fragrance 



Portadown Fragrance (McGredy, 1931). A most pleasing 

 Rose not only on account of its beautiful form and color but also 

 for its remarkable sweet fragrance. Described by its introducer 

 as surpassing any other variety. The long buds are pointed. 

 The flowers are very large, double, high centered, and will last 

 an unusually long time on the plant as well as after cutting. The 

 color is brilliant orange-scarlet passing to bright rose toward the 

 edge of the petals. It is a vigorous, strong growing Rose produc- 

 ing a very large number of perfectly formed blooms. $1.25 

 each; $12.50 per doz.
