Rose, wonderfully free in the easy manner in which

flame, scarlet and yellow; this combination of colors 
gives the most dazzling color effect imaginable. The

but artistically arranged, is of a lively shade of 
shrimp pink or coral-red with a golden coppery suf- 
fusion which is heightened by the reflection from 
the golden base and reverse of the petals. A most 
unique and striking flower in all stages of devel-

hardy, vigorous grower and free and perpetual flow- 
ering. $150.00 per 100. Talisman (Montgomery Co., 1929). The Rose of many 
Gold Medals. It is the most remarkable piece of 
ome 5 coloring that we know in any Rose; a combination 
of shadings of gold, apricot, yellow and deep pink 
or old-rose. The outside of the petals is bright 
yellow, gold, and pink; as the flower develops and 
the petals unfold they become bright apricot, gold, 
deep rose-pink or old-rose and unlike most Roses 
the color becomes brighter as the flowers develop. 
The bud is long, perfectly formed, averaging about 
25 to 28 petals, the plant isa strong, vigorous grower 
with glossy green foliage and free flowering. $60.00

Vaterland (Pfitzer, 1928). The most distinct dark col- 
ored variety yet introduced, deeper and richer in 
effect than the Hybrid Perpetual variety Prince Ca- 
mille de Rohan, a rich deep velvety scarlet maroon 
and a splendidly formed high centered flower of 
remarkable keeping qualities. The plant is of vig- 
orous strong erect habit with healthy foliage and 
remarkably free and perpetual flowering; unques- 
tionably the best of this type that has yet come to 
our notice. $150.00 per 100.
