of golden apricot; it has a delicious rose-apple scent.

A magnificent new 
Rose of Australian origin with which we have been 
most favorably impressed in our trials during the 
past two years, and in which we believe 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 fra- 
grant flowers which are of a uniform color, remind- 
ing 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, 
with large glossy healthy green foliage, very free 
flowering. $75.00 per 100. 
& Sons, 1930). A novelty 
which on account of its coloring and its perfectly 
formed large double flower, will please every Rose 
lover. The ovoid buds when first 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 with 
dark green glossy foliage and exceptionally free and 
continuous flowering. $125.00 per 100. 
1927). This is a gem of ex- 
quisite form and absolutely distinct from any variety 
yet introduced. It is of strong branching habit, 
remarkably free-flowering. The buds and flowers 
are of medium size, the base of the petals a rieh 
golden-apricot passing to a delicate blush-pink as 
the flowers develop. $60.00 per 100.

Irish Sweetness (McGredy, 1927). 
James Gibson (McGredy, 1928). 
Jules Gaujard (Pernet-Ducher, 
1927). A splendid addition 
to the list of bi-colored Roses, the color being a soft 
shrimp-pink merging to salmon in the fully ex- 
panded petals, the whole overlying a golden orange 
ground, this color being very pronounced at the 
centre of the flower. Growth and fragrance mode- 
rate, with attractive dark glossy-green foliage. 
$60.00 per 100. 
A splendid and distinct 
red with well-formed buds composed of heavy, broad 
petals opening to moderately full, very fragrant 
flowers. The color is a rich rosy-crimson with 
maroon shadings. It is of splendid, vigorous growth 
with good foliage, and a free and continuous 
bloomer. In our trial plots this looks like. one of 
the most promising varieties, among the many red 
sorts on trial. $60.00 per 100. f 
A delightfully fra- 
grant variety and splendid addition to the none-too- 
long list of good red bedding Roses. Color, an ex- 
quisite shade of crimson-lake suffused with scarlet; 
a vigorous free grower and very free flowering. 
$60.00 per 100. 
A glorious glowing 
erimson-scarlet with velvety sheen imparting a lus- 
trous radiance to the large, full, beautifully formed 
flowers of which every bloom develops to perfec- 
tion. Its habit of growth is as near perfect as could 
be desired, being free, bushy, upright and vigorous 
and the flowers which are borne profusely all the 
season, are carried erect on long stems with good 
disease resistant foliage. A brilliant Rose of ex- 
ceptional beauty. $125.00 per 100. 
Otto Thilow (Verschuren & Sons, 1927). This variety 
was named in memory of our late Mr. Thilow. It 
is a rich, glowing rose-pink of exceptional merit 
with long, pointed buds of perfect formation; as 
the flowers expand the petals reflex forming a beau- 
tiful large double high centered flower. It is a very 
strong grower with clean, healthy foliage and a 
continuous profuse bloomer, a grand garden Rose 
in every respect. $60.00 per 100. 
1928). Distinct and 
beautiful, the large, well-formed double flowers on 
Julien Potin (The Golden Pernet). 
Lady Barnby (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). 
first opening are of a glistening cochineal crimson 
which, as they fully develop, pass to a _ pretty 
shade of orange-rose. It is of strong, vigorous, 
branching habit, very free flowering and a variety 
that we are convinced will become a greatly ad- 
mired garden Rose. $75.00 per 100. 
This is one of 
Mr. Pernet’s latest achievements which will prob- 
ably become better known as The Golden Pernet. It 
is unquestionably the most gorgeous and brilliant 
yellow Rose yet introduced, 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. $60.00 per 100. 
Another 
beautiful Dickson Rose that will not be distributed 
by the originators in Europe until the middle of 
June. We feel fortunate in being in position to offer 
a limited stock of strong plants for delivery this 
spring. It produces splendidly formed flowers very 
much on the type of Mrs. Henry Bowles, a variety 
that is a favorite with us, it being one of our most 
reliable bedding varieties, but Lady Barnby differs 
in color, it being a lovely shade of clear rose pink. 
The plant is of excellent habit, strong vigorous 
growth and very free flowering and sweetly scented. 
$125.00 per 100.
