This Year's New Hybrid-Tea Roses and Varieties 



of Special Merit— Continued 



Ne^T Hybrid-Tea Rose, Impress 



E. G. Hill (E. G. Hill Co., 1929). Among the many 

 Roses raised by Mr. Hill we consider this new red 

 variety one of the most valuable. While it has 

 gained great popularity as a winter cut flower, it 

 is equally good tor garden purposes, the long 

 buds of perfect form, as well as the high centered 

 full double flowers are of a dazzling scarlet, shad- 

 ing to a deeper pure red as they develop; of strong 

 vigorous and free flowering habit. SCO.OO per 100. 



Elizabeth of Vorii. (Dobbie & Co., 1927). Beautifully 

 formed long pointed buds of a glowing cerise-red 

 with yellow suffusion at the base, the petals as they 

 unfold spread widely with a splendid reflex ulti- 

 mately showing the stamens. An artistic, dainty, 

 delicately colored flower. iHO.OO per 100. 



E-verest (Easlea & Sons, 1927). One of the largest 

 Roses yet raised, buds large, perfectly shaped, flow- 

 ers of immen.ee size with long broad petals of firm 

 texture, fragrant ivory-white with creamy suffusion 

 and when fully developed resembles a large Peony 

 borne on long stems, "^''hile awarded a Gold Medal 

 by the National Rn.-^e Society of England in 1927 as 

 a Hybrid-Tea, it has the characteristics of a vigor- 

 ous growing Hybrid-Perpetual. $50.00 per 100. 



Evert Van Dyk (G. A. Van Rossem, 1931). With the 

 many good pink Roses now in cultivation the stand- 

 ard to induce us to offer a new variety is naturally 

 placed high, and we are convinced that in this new 

 Dutch variety, which has been named by the intro- 

 ducer in honor of one of the sponsors of the trans- 

 oceanic flight of the "Southern Cross," that we have 

 a variety, which in its color, a bright rose-pink with 

 salmon suffusion, and superior habits, we can rec- 

 ommend with full confidence. §60.00 per 100. 



Golden Daim (P. Grant, 1929). A magnificent new 

 Rose of Australian origin with which we have been 

 most favorably impressed and in which we have an 

 ideal garden Rose of great merit of an exquisite 

 light lemon yellow color. Its buds are of an ovoid 

 form, heavily splashed with crimson before opening 

 and develop into splendidly shaped full double mod- 

 erately fragrant floweis which are of a uniform 

 color, reminding one of the old favorite Marechal 

 Niel and which was suggestive of the name Golden 

 Dawn. The plant is of strong, vigorous upright 

 branching habit, very free flowering with usually 

 three or more flowers on each branch. $60.0O per 

 100 



Grnss an Coburg (Felberg, Leclerc, 1927). A promising 

 new variety with brilliant coppery orange red buds 

 and large double, full, very fragrant flowers, of a 

 brilliant combination of fawn, golden yellow and 

 coppery red. A strong healthy grower and a per- 

 petual bloomer. $75.00 per lOU. 



Heinricb Eggers (T^'. Kordes, 1928). V.'ell shaped long 

 spiral buds and large bold full double high centered 

 flowers of perfect shape. Color an orange tinted 

 pink with yellow shadings at base. Very strong 

 free flowering habit. $75.00 per 100. 



Hilda (Cant & Son, 1928). Large globular buds and 

 very large extremely double, very lasting, slightly 

 fragrant flowers of a bright carmine, the inner 

 petals shading to light pink, usually borne several 

 together on long stems. Growth very vigorous, 

 a splendid continuous, profuse bloomer. $G0.00 per 

 100. 



Impress (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). A novelty 

 which on account of its coloring and its perfectly 

 formed large double flowers will please every Rose 

 lover. The ovoid buds when flrst unfolding are 

 cardinal-red with orange suffusion and develop into 

 very large, full double very perfect blooms that last 

 in good shape and which are of a pretty salmon- 

 cerise color suffused with a luminous golden sheen. 

 The plant Is a strong vigorous upright grower and 

 exceptionally free flowering. $75.00 per 100. 



Ivanlioe (Easlea, 192S). Large long pointed bud and 

 large high centered, long lasting, intensely fragrant, 

 brilliant scarlet to rich crimson-scarlet flowers, 

 borne several together on medium stems; foliage 

 glossy; growth vigorous; a free, continuous bloomer 

 and hardy. S75.0O per 100. 



Ivy May (Beckwith & Son, 1925). One of the most 

 attractive varieties of Ophelia type. Color a pretty 

 rose pink running to amber at the base, flushed 

 with gold on the outside and at the edges of the 

 petals; glowing and sparkling. Buds of medium 

 size, long pointed and shapely, opening to fairly 

 double, well-formed, sweetly-scented flowers on 

 long stems. Habit vigorous and upright; a very 

 free and continuous bloomer. A splendid garden 

 Rose and a beautiful cut-flower. $75.00 per 100.
