stained on the reverse of the outer petals with salmon and 



salmon blush $1.50 each. 

 Mrs. C. W. Edwards (McGredy, 1924). Rich rosy-scarlet

very free flowering, with large, full, fragrant flowers. $1.50 each. 

 Mrs. Erskine Pembroke Thom (Howard & Smith, 1926). 



A beautiful yellow Rose, a clear, deep, canary -yellow without 



any trace of shading and a desirable addition to our list of 



yellow Roses. The buds are of long shape and develop into 



good sized full-flowers. The plant is of strong upright, 



branching habit and free flowering. $2.00 each. 

 Mrs. Henry Bowles (Chaplin, 1921). Nearly everybody admired 



the old favorite Mme. Abel Chatenay, for a long time one of the 



most popular Roses but which has practically disappeared from 



commerce, in this we have the same pleasing warm color values 



but in flowers of much greater size. Color a most effective deep 



salmon-pink and of splendid form. Vigorous growing and free flower 



ing. $1.50 each. 

 Mrs. R. B. Maloney (McGredy, 1925). Pure brilliant crimson-carmine 



without any variation, wonderfully brilliant and glowing. The flowers 



are large, of perfect form, with reflexed petals of fine substance and 



sweet scented, very free and perpetual. $2.00 each. 

 Mrs. W. E. Nickerson (McGredy, 1927). An extremely vigorous 



growing very free-flowering Rose of the duatone Pernetiana type. The 



splendidly-formed buds are of an entrancing new color, the exterior of 



the petals heavily veined with rose d'or and shaded orange-cadmium. 



Hybrid-tea Rose, 

 Lord Charlemont 



the interior a deep chrome-yellow on the lower half vein out 

 and pass to a warm rich rosy-salmon. Valuable for interior 

 decoration, particularly so as the intensity of coloring is espe- 

 cially effective under artificial light. $2.00 each. 

 Mrs. Tom Smith (T. Smith & Sons, 1924). A splendid Gold 

 Medal variety of thorough distinctness and merit. A strong 

 erect vigorous grower with dark bronzy foliage and very free 

 flowering with good shapely buds opening to perfect double 

 fragrant flowers of a glowing cerise. $2.00 each. 



Norman Lambert (McGredy, 1926). A distinct color combina- 

 tion that is novel. The outside of the petals is a deep chrome- 

 yellow with a marginal color effect of briUiant orange-scarlet 

 merging to an irregular zone of burnt orange, the inside salmon- 

 orange suffused bronze, shading to yellow at the base. The 

 flowers are of medium size and form with petals of good texture, 

 delightfully fragrant and free-flowering. $1.50 each. 

 Patience (McGredy, 1927). Another Gold Medal variety, 

 I entirely distinct, a brilliant scarlet-carmine-lake, as the flower

 flowers are large, of perfect form and last a long time in perfection, de- 

 licately sweet scented. $2.50 each. 

 Pink Pearl (Leenders & Co., 1 924) . A dainty variety destined to become a uni- 

 versal favorite if it had nothing to recommend it but its delicious fragrance. In 

 color it is a brilliant rich cerise pink the base of the petals touched withgold that 

 lights up the flower wonderfully particularly in the half expanded 

 bloom. The flowers are full double, of perfect form. $1.50 each. 

 Rev. F. Page Roberts (Cant & Sons, 1921). A Rose of remark- 

 able beauty both in form and color. The long pointed buds 

 are of a coppery-red stained red on the outside and open to 

 good full double fragrant flowers of a golden-yeUow particularly 

 high colored in late summer and fall. The plant is of vigorous 

 branching habit with beautififl foliage. A most distinct variety 

 that has deservedly gained great popularity. $2.00 each. 

 Roselandia (W. Stevens, 1924). A sport from the popular 

 variety Golden Ophelia, over which it is an improvement not 

 only in color but in its remarkable free-flowering habit. It is a 

 golden-orange suffused with a lustrous glow of apricot in the 

 heart and at the base of the petals, frequently tinted red on the 

 reverse of the outer petals; the buds are long pointed, of superb build and 

 substance, and very sweet scented. $1.50 each.
