This Year's New Hybrid -Tea Roses — Continued 



Novelties and Varieties of Recent Introduction 



Hybrid-Tea Rose, Impress. See page 29. 



Mme. Jules Guerin (Gaujard, 1931). An exceptionally large, 

 fragrant, well formed, full double flower frequently measuring 

 over 6 inches in diameter. The long, shapely buds when first 

 expanding are golden-yellow passing to creamy-yellow as they 

 develop. The plant is very vigorous in growth, free flowering 

 and the blooms are carried on strong stout stems. $1.50 each. 



Mme. Nicolas Aussel (Pernet-Ducher, 1930). In a French 

 contest, Sept. 15th, 1931, was voted an award of a Gold Medal 

 as The Most Beautiful Rose in France. An outstanding intro- 

 duction of the late Mr. Pernet-Ducher. In color a bright 

 coppery-red in the very long, shapely, tapering bud that 

 develops into a large, fragrant, full double flower of an exquisite 

 opalescent salmon-pink. Growth vigorous and healthy, free 

 and continuous bloomer. $1.00 each. 



Mrs. Sam McGredy (McGredy, 1929). The color of this beau- 

 tiful variet}' is quite distinct from anything yet seen in Roses, a 

 wonderful dual combination of vivid shades. A beautiful 

 scarlet coppery-orange is heavily flushed with Lincoln-red on 

 the outside of the petals, and these colors together give a rich 

 and almost dazzling effect. The flowers are of large size and 

 beautiful form, and they possess the proper fullness to make 

 them useful for all purposes. They are very freely produced and 

 delicately perfumed. The plant has a vigorous and exceptionally 

 free habit and is one of the best all-purpose varieties. §1.00 

 each. 



Olympiad (Mme. Raymond Gaujard) (Pernet-Ducher, 1932). 

 The color of Olympiad is unique, a lustrous, dark Oriental 

 scarlet, its depth of color accentuated by the golden base and 

 intensified by a rich velvety sheen. The bud is long and pointed 

 and the flower magnificent in every stage of development. 

 SI. 00 each. 



Portadown Fragrance (McGredy, 1931). A Rose that pleases, 

 not only on account of its beautiful formation and color but also 

 for its remarkable sweet fragrance, described by its introducer as 

 surpassing any other variety. The bud is long-pointed; the 

 flower very large, double, high-centered and unusually long 

 lasting. Color brilliant orange-scarlet passing to bright rose 

 towards the edge of the petals; of vigorous habit and free flower- 

 ing. $1.00 each. 



Schwabenland (Pfitzer, 1928). There are many pink Roses but 

 none just like this new variety either in color or in the splendid 

 formation of its blooms. The flowers are large; over five inches 

 in diameter, with high spiral center, the petals having a peculiar 

 twist or curl. In color it is a luminous rich rose-pink, retaining 

 its brightness until the petals drop, the flowers are carried 

 singly on long stiff stems. A strong, healthy, hardy, vigor- 

 ous grower and free flowering. $1.00 each. 



Sir Henry Segrave (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1932). Large, long, 

 well shaped bud and very large, full, beautiful, high-centered, 

 double flower of a deep lemon yellow shading deeper at base; 

 a free perpetual bloomer and sweet scented. $1.50 each. 



Swansdown (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1929). An ideal white 

 which in the autumn has just a tint of cream at the base of 

 the petals. The bud is large, very long pointed of perfect shape, 

 composed of large heavy petals and develops into a splendid fuU, 

 very sweetly-scented flower of spiral formation. $1.00 each. 



Vaterland (Pfitzer, 1928). The most distinct dark colored 

 variety yet introduced, deeper and richer in efiect than the 

 Hybrid-Perpetual variety Prince Camille de Rohan, a rich deep 

 velvety scarlet maroon and a splendidly formed high centered 

 flower of remarkable keeping qualities. The plant is of vigorous 

 strong erect habit with healthy foliage and free and perpetual 

 flowering; unquestionably the best of this type that has yet 

 come to our notice. $1.00 each. 



Victoria Adelheid (Kordes, 1932). ExceptionaUy large, well- 

 formed, double flowers of a rich golden yellow suffused with 

 vermilion red shading deeper to the edges of the petals. An 

 effective free flowering variety. $1.50 each.
