This Year’s New Hybrid-Tea Roses 
Introductions of The Rose World’s Most Noted Specialists. 
We offer this season the greatest and choicest collection of really worth while new varieties that we have ever had the pleasure of 
offering at one time, representing the best efforts of the World’s leading Rose hybridizers and showing the most wonderful advance yet 
made in the Rose family. 
: The varieties offered on this and the following pages represent the cream of the novelties of recent years, many of them varieties 
which are now offered for the first time, and in many instances sorts of which we have exclusive control in the United States and Canada 
this season. 
Charles P. Kilham (Beckwith & Sons, 1926). A brilliant, 
distinct and striking novelty which we know will appeal to and 
please every Rose lover. The buds are long pointed of perfect 
shape, opening to high centred perfectly formed full double 
flowers of a rich and brilliant Oriental red, flushed with orange 
and glowing scarlet. A vigorous grower; very free flowering and 
sweetly tea-scented. Awarded Gold Medal National Rose 
Society of England, Spring, 1927. $1.50 each. 
Dainty Bess (Archer, 1925). An appropriate name for a 
daintily colored and well formed single flower, 33 inches in 
diameter composed of delicately crinkled and wavy petals 
of a pleasing shade of shell pink with a conspicuous bunch of 
crimson stamens. The flowers last well when cut and are 
charming when displayed in individual vases. A strong 
vigorous grower and profuse flowering, the flowers being 
produced on strong branching stems. Awarded the Gold 
Medal of the National English Rose Society in 1925. $1.50 
each. 
Dorina Neave (Pemberton, 1926). A meritorious bedding Rose 
of a delightful silvery pink with large, full, pointed, globular, 
fragrant flowers carried erect on stiff stems. Plant of strong, 
bushy, compact habit. $1.50 each. 
Dr. Edward Deacon (Morse & Son, 1926). A variety that will 
charm every lover of a real good Rose. Its color is fascinating, 
the margin of the petals being a delicate tint of shrimp pink 
gradually merging to a deep salmon-orange towards the base of 
the artistically reflexed petals, forming a fine, very full flower, 
New Hysrip-TEA ROSE, CHARLES P. KILHAM 
Abol (F. Evans, 1927). An exceptionally vigorous growing, very 
free-flowering, new white. No other white variety, and for that 
matter, very few colored varieties, have such a delightful sweet 
perfume as this novelty. In the bud stage and before the flowers 
are fully expanded, the centre petals are sometimes tinted with 
pink on the edges of the petals, passing to pure white as the 
flowers develop. A good shapely bud and full, double, well 
formed flower, produced very freely on long upright stems with 
very few thorns. $1.50 each. 
Adele Crofton (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1928.) No other Rose 
of the apricot yellow shades was so universally admired during 
the past season, in our trial grounds, as Adele Crofton, not only 
on account of its color but also on its refined formation of bud 
and bloom. The buds, which are of unusual length, expand very 
slowly and hold their splendid form for along time. The buds, 
as well as the young flowers, are of an intense cadmium yellow, 
overlaid with scarlet-orange with the back of the petals fre- 
quently shaded vermilion. The opening flower as it develops 
tones down in color to a rich apricot yellow. The plant is of 
moderately vigorous, clean growth and carries its flowers on good 
rigid stems. $2.50 each. 
Advocate (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1928). A meritorious, rich 
crimson bedding variety, with very long pointed buds, de- 
veloping to a full, shapely flower composed of large deep petals 
set in high spiral formation. Growth strong and vigorous, 
forming a bush of best bedding type, free and perpetual flower- 
ing and carrying its blooms, which are exceptionally fragrant, 
erect on stiff wiry stems. $2.50 each. 
that has good lasting qualities. The habit of the plant is ideal, 
upright, strong and free flowering, with very healthy foliage. 
$1.50 each.
