 AND GENERAL LIST OF BEST VARIETIES— Continued 



V 



\ 



Hybrid-Tea Rose, 

 Mme. Jules Bouche 



Prank Reader. A large massive flower with high pointed centre 

 with nicely reflexing petals of great substance, the long buds in 

 first developing are a light lemon-yellow, while the flowers in 

 their half-expanded form reveal a heart of golden apricot; it has 

 a delicious rose-apple scent. Among light-colored varieties this 

 is of outstanding merit. 



General MacArthur. One of the best all-around bedding 

 Roses, its flowers are of good form, of a warm, rich crimson 

 scarlet and very fragrant. 



Golden Emblem. A most beautiful clear yellow, occasionally 

 flaked with crimson on the outer petals, wonderfully well shaped 

 buds and flowers on long stems, with rich glossy green foliage. 



Hadley. Large, full, perfect flowers of an intense, rich, dazzling, 

 crimson-scarlet shading to velvety crimson; fragrant. 



Hoosier Beauty. Intense rich, dazzling crimson-scarlet, good 

 sized full flowers deliciously scented. 



Hortulanus Budde . One of the best bedding Roses of its color, 

 a bright orange-scarlet, not unlike that of the popular Paul's 

 Scarlet Climber; very free. 



H. V. Machin. A gorgeous flower of large size; in color an in- 

 tensely black-grained scarlet-crimson, carried on rigid, sturdy 

 stems with ideal foliage. A vigorous, strong growing Rose. 



Imperial Potentate. Introduced five years ago this beautiful 

 variety is finding its place among the most popular garden sorts. 

 Its splendidly shaped buds develop into large, sweet scented 

 double flowers of crisp, glistening rose-pink with silvery suffusion 

 at the base of the petals. 



Irish Elegance. A dainty single-flowering Rose with bronzy 

 pink buds expanding with apricot and yellow shades, a strong 

 grower and always in bloom. 



Irish Fireflame. A glorious single-flowering variety, bearing its 

 flowers in clusters of five or more; splendid for cutting in sprays 

 in bud form. These buds are wonderfully rich in coloring, a rich 

 deep orange, splashed with crimson, opening to a large single 

 flower of a satiny old-gold. 



Isobel. A lovely single flowered or five petalled variety that is 

 greatly admired. The flowers are 4 J inches in diameter of a 

 flushed carmine and orange passing to pink, fragrant and free. 



Jonkheer J. L. Mock. One of the best bedding varieties. 

 The flowers, produced with the greatest freedom are of large 

 size of a deep imperial pink, the outside of the petals silvery-rose. 



J. Otto Thilow. A rich glowing rose-pink of exceptional merit 

 with long pointed buds, as the flowers expand, the petals reflex 

 forming a beautiful large double high centered flower. 



John Russell. A handsome brilliant red Rose; a rich deep 

 velvety crimson of very large exhibition type, beautifiil both in 

 bud as well as in the fully expanded very double flowers. Strong 

 vigorous grower, delicately sweet scented. 



Julien Potin {The Golden Fernet). Unquestionably the most 

 gorgeous and brilliant yellow Rose yet introduced, a rich golden 

 yellow that grows richer and deeper as the flowers mature. The 

 buds are long and shapely and develop into large, full flowers of 

 beautiful form, delightfully sweet-scented. Habit of growth 

 upright with ample, attractive, glossy, bronzy-green foliage, 

 very free-flowering. 



Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. In color a soft pearly-white, 

 tinted with just enough lemon in the centre to relieve the white, 

 remarkably fragrant, beautifully formed flowers. 



Killarney. One of the most popular of pink garden Roses. The 

 blooms are large, the petals of great substance. 



Killarney Brilliant. A "sport" from Killarnej^ far more intense 

 in coloring, a rich glowing shade of rosy-carmine, and in addition 

 it is also larger and more double than its parent. 



Killarney Double White. A pure white but more double form 

 of Killarney, a beautiful Rose. 



Killarney Queen. Also a sport of Killarney with larger, more 

 double flowers which are absolutely perfect in all stages of de- 

 velopment, color a sparkling cerise-pink. 



Lady Alice Stanley. A gem that everyone admires; it is 

 absolutely perfectdn every way; in color it is a beautiful shade of 

 coral-rose, the inside of the petals shading to flesh-pink, fragrant. 



Lady Florence Stronge. An entirely new, distinct and novel 

 color; a reddish prawn to violet old rose shading to yellow at the 

 base and pink towards the edge, the inner surface of the petals 

 heavily veined and flushed scarlet, the flowers are large, fuU 

 with high centres and fragrant. Vigorous in growth and free- 

 flowering. 



Lady Margaret Stewart. A Rose of unique color, the flowers 

 in the young stage are a deep sunflower-yeUow heavily veined 

 and splashed with orange-scarlet, reverse of the petals deeply 

 suffused with carmine, as the flowers develop these colors 

 intermingle forming a beautiful cadmium orange effect. The 

 bud is long and pointed, opening to a full double flower of 

 pleasing decorative form of delightfully sweet scent. 



Laurent Carle. Produces its large, deliciously scented, brilliant 

 carmine flowers throughout the entire season. 



Lord Charlemont. The most gorgeous and brilliant dark rec' 

 Rose we have with flowers of the most intense clear crimson- 

 scarlet, deepening to carmine-crimson with almost black 

 shadings with perfectly shaped long pointed buds and large, 

 full double, sweetly scented flowers. 



Los Angeles. One of the most beautiful Roses yet introduced- 

 The long-stemmed flowers are of a luminous flame-pink, toned 

 with coral, and shaded with translucent gold at the base of the 

 petals. The buds are long and pointed and expand to flowers 

 of large proportion, of absolutely perfect form and of rich fra- 

 grance. 



Louise Catherine Breslau. Entirely distinct from all other 

 Roses in color; a superb shrimp-pink shaded coppery-orange and 

 chrome yellow, large full flowers. 



Lulu. A dainty and distinct, nearly single Rose, with exception- 

 ally long buds which in outline, remind one of the miniature 

 or Fairy Rose Mme. Cecil Brunner, but much larger in size, 

 while in color it is similar to Mme. Edouard Herriot, orange-red 

 shaded with salmon-pink. Beautiful in bud form.
