Dreer's Select List of Popular Hybrid-Tea Roses 



New Hybrid-Te \ Rose, President Hoover. See page 133 



Feu Joseph Looymans. Remarkable for its long pointed buds 

 of brilliant orange buff and large moderately double-yellow 

 flowers with apricot centre and spicy fragrance. 



Francis Scott Key. Very large double flowers of a rich crim- 

 son-red; a strong sturdy grower and free bloomer that always 

 attracts attention. 



General Mac Arthur. One of the best all-around bedding 

 Roses, its flowers are of good form, of a warm, rich crimson 

 scarlet and very fragrant. 



Golden Emblem. A most beautiful clear yellow, occasional- 

 ly flaked with crimson on the outer petals, wonderfully well 

 shaped buds and flowers on long stems, with rich glossy green 

 foliage. 



Hadley. Large flowers of an intense, rich, dazzling, crimson- 

 scarlet shading to velvety crimson; fragrant. 



Hoosier Beauty. Intense rich, dazzling crimson-scarlet, 

 good sized full flowers deliciously scented. 



Hortulanus Budde . One of the best bedding Roses of its 

 color, a bright orange-scarlet, not unlike that of the 

 popular Paul's Scarlet Climber; very free. 



Imperial Potentate. Splendidly shaped buds, develop 

 into large, sweet scented double flowers of crisp, glistening 

 rose-pink with silvery suffusion at the base of the petals. 

 A valuable garden Rose. 



I. Zingari. Ths 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. 



John Russell. A handsome brilliant red Rose; a rich deep 

 velvety crimson of very large exhibition type, beautiful both 

 in bud as well as in the fully expanded double flowers. Strong 

 vigorous grower, delicately sweet scented. 



Jonkheer J. L. Mock. One of the best bedding varieties. 

 The flowers, produced with the greatest freedom are of large 

 size of a deep imperial pink, the outside of the petals silvery- 

 rose. 



J. Otto Thilow. A rich glowing rose-pink, with long pointed 

 buds, as the flowers expand, the petals reflex forming a 

 beautiful large double high centre flower. 



Julien Potin (The Golden Pemet). A rich golden yellow that 

 grows richer and deeper as the flowers mature. The buds are 

 long and shapely and develop into large, full flowers of beau- 

 tiful form, delightfully sweet-scented. 



Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. In color a soft pearly-white, tinted 

 with just enough lemon in the centre to relieve the white, remark- 

 ably fragrant, beautifully formed flowers. 

 Killarney. One of the most popular of pink garden Roses. The 



blooms are large, the petals of great substance. 

 Killarney Brilliant. A "sport" from Killarney far more intense 

 in coloring, a rich glowing shade of rosy-carmine, and in addition it 

 is also larger and more double than its parent. 

 Killarney Double White. A pure white but more double form 

 of Killarney, a beautiful Rose. 



Killarney Queen. Also a sport of Killarney with larger, 

 more double flowers which are absolutely perfect, color a 

 sparkling cerise-pink. 

 Lady Alice Stanley. A gem that everyone admires; it 

 is absolutely perfect in every way; in color it is a beautiful 

 shade of coral-rose, the inside of the petals shading to 

 flesh-pink, fragrant. 

 Lady Florence Stronge. A distinct and novel color; a 

 reddish prawn to violet old rose shading to yellow at the 

 base and pink towards the edge. The flowers are large, 

 full and fragrant. 

 Lady Margaret Stewart. A Rose of unique color, 

 the flowers in the young stage are a deep sunflower- 

 yellow heavily veined and splashed with orange-scarlet, reverse of 

 the petals deeply suffused with carmine; as the flowers develop 

 these colors intermingle forming a beautiful cadmium orange effect. 

 The bud is long and pointed, opening to a full double flower of 

 pleasing decorative form of delightfully sweet scent. 

 Laurent Carle. Produces its large, deliciously scented, brilliant 



carmine flowers throughout the entire season. 

 Lord Charlemont. Intense crimson-scarlet, deepening to 

 carmine-crimson with almost black shadings with perfectly 

 shaped long pointed buds and large, full double, sweetly scented 

 flowers.
