PARI SEEECT-ROSES 
This Year’s New Hybrid -Tea Roses—Continued 
Introductions of the Rose World’s Most Noted Specialists 
Mrs. Sam McGredy (McGredy & Son, 1929). Out of the very 
many fine roses raised by Messrs. McGredy in past years this 
is only the second one which they have selected to bear the 
family name, and like Margaret McGredy, which is well known 
and very popular, they predict an equally favorable reception 
for this new variety. The following is the raisers’ own de- 
scription: ‘The color 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, which is particularly brilliant in 
sunshine, which seems to illumine the flower and a bed seen 
under favorable conditions is a wonderful sight. The flowers 
are of large and beautiful form, and possess the proper fulness 
to make them useful for all purposes; they are freely produced 
and delicately scented. The foliage is dark reddish, bronzy 
green and mildew proof; the stems are long and strong, not 
thorny, and the blooms erect. The plant has a vigorous and 
exceptionally free habit; a Rose that we are confident cannot fail 
to please, it is the best ‘all purpose variety we have raised.’”’ 
Awarded Certificate of Merit of the National Rose Society of 
England. $3.00 each. 
Portadown (McGredy & Son, 1928). Messrs. McGredy are 
most enthusiastic in their praise of this new deep crimson with 
velvety sheen which they describe as having large, full beauti- 
fully formed flowers, reminding one in perfection of shape of 
Mrs. Henry Morse when at its best. Habit vigorous and bushy, 
a continuous free bloomer with dark green foliage. Certificate 
of Merit National Rose Society, England. $2.50 each. 
New Hysrip-TEA Rose, NoRMAN LAMBERT 
Mme. Henri Queuille (Pernet-Ducher, 1929). This ~ 
splendid rose in the formation of its large, full flowers, 
strong, vigorous, healthy growth and freedom of flowering 
reminds one of the same raiser’s popular bedding variety, 
Souvenir de Georges Pernet, excepting in color which is 
much lighter, being a pretty shrimp or coral pink on an or- 
ange-copper base. $1.50 each. 
Marquise d’Andigne (Leenders Bros., 1927). Buds large, 
long pointed developing to very large, very full, double, 
long lasting, fragrant, velvety scarlet-crimson flowers borne 
singly on long strong stems. Growth very vigorous, bushy 
and a profuse bloomer with dark green healthy foliage. 
Awarded Gold Medal at Saverne. $1.50 each. 
Mevrouw G. A. Van Rossem (Van Rossem, 1926). A marvelously 
beautiful Rose with a unique color combination not found in any 
other variety, a most striking blending of dark vivid orange and 
apricot on a golden yellow ground with frequently touches of bronze 
on the reverse of the petals. The sweet-scented flowers are very 
large, of perfect formation both in the bud as well as in the fully 
developed flower and are produced very freely on vigorous upright 
growths. Gold Medal at The Hague and Certificate of Merit with 
Congratulations of the Jury of the Royal Dutch Horticultural 
Society. $3.00 each.
