Mine. Nicolas Aussel (Pernet-Ducher, 1930). 

 In a French contest, Sept. 15th, 1931, was 

 voted an award of a Gold Medal as The 

 Most Beautiful Rose in France. An out- 

 standing introduction of the late Mr. Per- 

 net-Ducher. In color a bright coppery-red 

 in the very long, shapely, tapering bud 

 that develops into a large, full double 

 flower of an exquisite opalescent salmon- 

 pink. Growth Vigorous and healthy, free 

 and continuous bloomer. $40.00 per 100. 



Mrs. Sam McGredy (McGredy, 1929). The color of 

 this beautiful variety is quite distinct from any- 

 thing yet seen in Roses, a wonderful dual combi- 

 naton of vivid shades. A beautiful scarlet coppery- 

 orange is heavily flushed with Dincoln-red on the 

 outside of the petals, and these colors together 

 give a rich and almost dazzling effect. The flowers 

 are of large size and beautiful form, and they pos- 

 sess the proper fullness to make them useful for 

 all purposes. They are very freely produced and 

 delicately perfumed. The plant has a vigorous and 

 exceptionally free habit and is one of the best all- 

 purpose varieties. $40.00 per 100. 



Portadown Fragrance (McGredy, 1930). A Rose that 

 pleases not only on account of its beautiful forma- 

 tion and color but also for its remarkable sweet 

 fragrance, described by its introducer as surpass- 

 ing any other variety. The bud is long-pointed; 

 the flower very large, double, high-centered and 

 unusually long lasting. Color brilliant orange- 

 scarlet passing to bright rose towards the edge of 

 the petals; of vigorous habit and free flowering. 

 $50.00 per 100. 



Schwabehland (Pfitzer, 1928). There are many pink 

 Roses but none just like this new variety either 

 in color or in the splendid formation of its blooms. 

 The flowers are large, over five inches in diameter, 

 with high spiral centre, the petals having a peculiar 

 twist or curl. In color it is a luminous rich rose- 

 pink, retaining its brightness until the petals drop, 

 the flowers are carried singly on long stiff stems. 

 A strong, healthy, hardy, vigorous grower and free 

 flowering. $35.00 per 100. 



Vaterland (Pfitzer, 1928). The most distinct dark 

 colored variety yet introduced, deeper and richer in 

 effect than the Hybrid-Perpetual variety Prince 

 Camille de Rohan, a rich, deep, velvety scarlet 

 maroon and a splendidly formed, high-centered 

 flower of remarkable keeping qualities. The plant 

 is of vigorous strong erect habit with healthy 

 foliage and free and perpetual flowering; unques- 

 tionably the best of this type that has yet come to 

 our notice. $35.00 per 100.
