NEW ROSES-Continued 



Mme. Butterfly 



Mme. Butterfly 



American Legion 



Hybrid Tea — An American production, having been 

 produced by Edward Towill, Roslyn, Pa. The blooms 

 of this Rose the past season brought almost as much as 

 the famous Rose, American Beauty, and as it becomes 

 better known, we predict it will be as popular, as the 

 color is such a pleasing shade of cerise, which it retains 

 until all petals fall. Buds produced on long, stiff stems, 

 well above the foliage and of immense size, long and 

 pointed, opening full and double, a great producer. 

 Foliage dark green, free from diseases such as Black 

 Spot, Mildew, etc. Awarded First Prize for a new 

 Rose in 1920. Silver Medal by the Penna. Horticultural 

 Society and the International Rose Show of New York. 

 Wonderful keeper, thus making it an ideal rose for 

 cutting. Equally good as a forcing rose or for outside, 

 being absolutely hardy in all localities. 



LADY ALICE STANLEY— Color, coral-rose, the 

 inside of the petals shading to flesh-pink. Grand for 

 bedding. One of the best pink Hybrid Teas. 



Hybrid Tea — All the color tones of Ophelia are 

 intensified, making it a harmony of bright pink, 

 apricot and gold. Ophelia ranks at the top in popu- 

 larity and Madame Butterfly will surpass it. It 

 averages more petals to the bloom; it produces 

 more bloom to the plant because it makes more 

 branches, everyone carrying a bud. The tight buds 

 are a lovely shade of Indian oak, yellow at the base; 

 the opening flowers are perfect in form and texture, 

 clear and brilliant in color and of delicious fragrance. 

 *PILGRIM (Hybrid Tea)— Size of the bud is 

 enormous, produced on heavy stems of great 

 length, opening up full and double and of great 

 substance and ideal form. The color is a beautiful 

 shade of bright rose-pink with lighter shading on 

 outer edges. Its highly Tea Rose fragrance recom- 

 mends itself to all Rose lovers. 

 Of strong sturdy heavy growth, 

 producing blooms in great 

 abundance throughout theentire 

 season. Hardy everywhere. 

 *GOLDEN OPHELIA (Hybrid 

 Tea) — A seedling from the 

 favorite Ophelia. Buds and 

 flowers of medium size and 

 beautifully formed of a bright 

 golden yellow. Hardy and a 

 profuse bloomer. Very attrac- 

 tive. 

 *MISS CYNTHIA FORDE 

 (Hybrid Tea) — A deep, bril- 

 liant rose pink, reflex rosy 

 pink. Large, perfectly form- 

 ed, very full buds, free flower- 

 ing, very sweetly perfumed, 

 splendid grower. Free from 

 insects and disease of any kind. 

 The full open flower resembles 

 a handsome Zinnia on tall stiff 

 stems well above the foliage. 

 One of the best garden and 

 bedding varieties suitable for 

 any location. 



MRS. JOHN COOK (Hybrid Tea)— Of the Ophelia 

 family, which is almost sufficient recommendation to 

 insure its popularity to the American Rose-loving 

 public. Color a white suffused with delicate pink, 

 sometimes being a flesh pink due to changing in 

 season. Buds nicely formed, expanding into a large 

 cup-shaped bloom. Strong grower and soon makes 

 a big plant. 

 WM. SHEAN (Hybrid Tea) — One of the most unique 

 roses in color tones and contrast. Flowers a beautiful 

 pure pink with delicate tinting, of immense size and 

 substance and perfect form. Strong sturdy grower 

 making a well formed bush. Free blooming and 

 hardy anywhere. Price first size plants, 50c each,
