HYBRID-TEA ROSES FOR FALL PLANTING 



MERITORIOUS RECENT INTRODUCTIONS 

 AND GENERAL LIST OF BEST VARIETIES —Continued 



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

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

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



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

 velvety crimson of very large exhibition type, beautiful both in 

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

 vigorous grower, delicately sweet scented. 



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 centre flower. 



Julien Potin (The Golden Pemet). 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. 



Kaiserih 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 Killarney 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. 



Hybrid-Tea Rose, Felicity 



Felicity. A gem of a beautiful shade of mallow-pink shading to 

 bright cerise at the edges, with soft creamy suffusion at the base 

 of petals; fine long bud and splendid, large, double, sweet-scented 

 rup-shaped flower. An exceptionally fine Rose. 



Feu Joseph Looymans. Remarkable for its long pointed buds of 

 brilliant orange buff and large moderately double-yellow flowers 

 with apricot centre and spicy fragrance. 



Francis Scott Key. Very large double flowers of a rich crimson-red; 

 a strong sturdy grower and free bloomer that always attracts attention, 

 particularly in the fall. 



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 

 floweis on long stems, with rich glossy green foliage. 



Hadley. Large 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. 



Imperial Potentate. Splendidly shaped buds develop into 

 large, sweet scented double flowers of crisp, glistening rose- 

 pink with silvery suffusion at the base of the petals. A valuable 

 garden Rose. 



Irish Elegance. A dainty single-flowering Rose with bronzy pink 

 buds expanding with apricot and fellow 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.
