Impress (Alex. Dickson & 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 
ecardinal-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- 
ecerise color suffused with a luminous golden sheen.

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

garden Rose and a beautiful cut-flower. Awarded

Zingari (J. H. Pemberton, 1925). The most vivid 
shade of orange scarlet that one can picture, rich 
and glowing; while the flowers are only semi- 
double it always attracts attention on account of 
its rich color and is worthy of a place in every 
garden. It blooms profusely and continuously, 
usually in sprays of several blooms; the glossy 
dark green foliage accentuates its vivid color. ir : :

James Gibson (McGredy & Son, 1928). A glorious 
glowing crimson-scarlet with velvety sheen, im- 
parting a lustrous radiance to the large, full, beau- 
tifully formed flowers of which every bloom devel- 
ops to perfection. Its habit of growth is as near 
perfect as could be desired, being free, bushy, up- 
right and vigorous and the flowers which are borne 
profusely all the season, are carried erect on long 
stems with good disease resistant foliage. A bril- 
liant rose of exceptional beauty. $75.00 per 100. 
Jarvisbrook (Stuart Low, 1928). A splendid large full 
flower of a most dainty and effective color combin- 
ation, carmine with orange reverse to petal. It is 
sweetly scented, of vigorous, upright, branching, 
healthy habit of growth and remarkably free flow- 
ering throughout the season. A meritorious Rose 
in every respect. $75.00 per 100. 
J. ©. Thornton (Bees, 1926). A most brilliant bright 
glowing scarlet crimson with buds of exquisite 
form and fine, full, well-shaped high-centered flow- 
ers of great substance, borne singly on long strong 
stems; of vigorous, free, growth. It may prove to 
be our best red bedding variety. A Gold Medal 
Rose of great importance. $75.00 per 100. 
Joanna Hill (J. H. Hill Co., 1928). This new yellow 
has gained a well merited reputation as a winter 
cut flower and from our observations during the 
summer of 1929 we believe it will prove equally 
valuable and meritorious for the garden. The buds 
are large, long pointed and open to large, full, 
semi-double, attractive, long lasting, moderately 
fragrant flowers of a clear yellow with orange yel- 
low heart. They are borne singly on long strong 
stems; growth vigorous, upright, a profuse bloomer.

favorite Abel Chatenay. Buds very large, long

formed, long lasting, intensely fragrant flowers of 
a pretty shade of salmon pink at the centre, shad- 
ing brighter on the outside of the petals; the flow- 
ers are borne several together on long strong stems.

sistant leathery foliage. A strong vigorous bushy
