New Hybrid-Tea Rose, Lncie Marie 



Impress (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1929). A novelty 

 which on account of Its coloring' and Its perfectly 

 formed large double flowers will please every Rose 

 lover. The ovoid buds when first unfolding are 

 cardinal-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- 

 cerise color suffused with a luminous golden sheen. 

 The plant is a strong vigorous upright grower and 

 exceptionally free flowering. $75.00 per 100. 



Ivanhoe (Easlea, 192S). Large long pointed bud and 

 large high centered, long lasting, intensely fra- 

 grant, brilliant scarlet to rich crimson-scarlet flower, 

 borne several together on medium stems; foliage 

 glossy; growth vigorous; a free, continuous bloomer 

 and hardy. $75.0O per 100. 



Ivy May (Beckwith & Son, 1925). One of the most 

 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 

 long strong stems. Habit vigorous and upright; a 

 very free and continuous bloomer. A splendid gar- 

 den Rose and a beautiful cut-flower. ipGO.OO per 100. 



I. Zingrari (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. 

 ¥40.00 per 100. 



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. The 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. 



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 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 yellow heart. They are borne singly on 

 long strong stems; growth vigorous, upright, a pro- 

 fuse bloomer. .$60.00 per 100. 



Jules Gaujard (Pernet-Ducher, 1928). Distinct and 

 beautiful, the large, well-formed double flowers on 

 flrst opening are of a glistening cochineal crimson 

 which, as they fully develop, pass to a pretty shade 

 of orange-rose. It is of strong, vigorous, branch- 

 ing habit, very free flowering and a variety that 

 we are convinced will become a greatly admired 

 garden Rose. $60.00 per 100. 



Konigrin Luise (Queen Luise) (Weigand, 1927). An 

 exceptionally large, full, globular, well built double 

 white flower that lasts a long time. Of strong- 

 vigorous habit of growth with good healthy foliage. 

 The flowers are carried erect on strong stiff stems. 

 A splendid Rose for the garden and for cutting. 

 $50.00 per 100. 



Lady Forteviot (B. R. Cant, 1928). A garden Rose 

 that we confidently recommend. Large ovoid buds 

 opening to very large, moderately double artistic 

 well lasting flowers of delightful fruity fragrance 

 of a bright golden yellow flushed with cardinal red, 

 borne several together on long strong stems. Growth 

 vigorous, healthy dark green glossy foliage, a har- 

 dy continuous bloomer. $60.00 per 100.
