Cathrine Kordes 



Cathrine Kordes (Kordes, 1930). An outstanding- and 

 very lovely Rose with well formed, large, long pointed 

 buds of a beautiful rich blood red color enhanced by 

 velvety black shadings. The open blooms are very 

 large. They are double, high centered, and extremely 

 long lasting. Their color, a glowing shade of scarlet 

 shading to deep pink, is magnificent. Their fragrance 

 is rich and delightful and they are borne singly on 

 elegant long and strong stems. It is a vigorous, 

 upright grower with beautiful large, dark green 

 foliage of leathery substance which is decidedly dis- 

 ease resistant. The flowers are produced intermit- 

 tently all during the season. $50.00 per 100. 



Eduard Schill (Kordes, 1931). Large ovoid buds and 

 very large, full double flowers. The color as the 

 buds first unfold is rich coral scarlet overlying a 

 deep old gold ground. As they develop they pass to 

 pretty coral rose with satiny golden suffusion. An 

 effective desirable Rose. $50.00 per 100. 



Enlalia (Verschtiren, 1933). A splendid addition to the 

 list of pink Roses. Immense buds opening into large 

 flowers of a lovely shade of pink with lighter shadings

 cutting. $50.00 per 100.

 modern Zinnias. Rich, fruity fragrance. A free, con- 

 tinuous bloomer. $80.00 per 100. 



Katharine Pechtold (Verschuren-Pechtold, 1933). Ex-

malar Bos (Kordes, 1932). A new German Rose with 

 large, pointed, oval-shaped buds carried on rigid 

 stems. The large, rich crimson flowers are fully 

 double. They are remarkably sweet-scented — the 

 intense old Rose perfume. It is a first class new 

 variety equally fine for cutting as for bedding. 

 $50.00 per 100. 



Mme. Jules Gnerin (Gaujard, 1931). An exceptionally 

 large, fragrant, well-formed, full double flower fre- 

 quently measuring over 6 inches in diameter. The 

 long, shapely buds when first expanding are golden- 

 yellow passing to creamy yellow as they develop. 

 The plant is very vigorous in growth and free 

 flowering. The blooms are carried on strong stout 

 stems. Fine for exhibition purposes. $80.00 per 100. 



Mme. ITicolas Aussel (Pernet-Ducher, 1930). In a 

 French contest, Sept. 15th, 1931, this variety was 

 voted an award of a Gold Medal as "The Most Beau- 

 tiful Rose in France." An outstanding introduction 

 of the late Mr. Pernet-Ducher. Bright coppery red 

 in the very long, shapely, tapering bud that develops 

 into a large, full double flower of an exquisite opal- 

 escent salmon-pink. Makes a vigorous healthy growth 

 blooming freely and continuously. $50.00 per 100. 



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 scarlet coppery 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, and 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 exceptionally free habit 

 and is one of the best all-purpose varieties. $30.00 

 per 100. 



Sir Henry Segrave (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1932). 

 Large, long, well shaped bud and very large, full, 

 beautiful, high-centered, double flower of a deep 

 lemon yellow shading deeper at base. A free, perpet- 

 ual bloomer and sweet scented. $80.00 per 100. 



Victoria Adelheid (Kordes, 1932). Exceptionally large, 

 well-formed, double flowers of a rich golden yellow 

 suffused with verinilion red shading deeper tov/ard the 

 edges of the petals. An effective, free flowering 

 variety. $50.00 per 100.
