CALIFORNIA NURSERY CO., INC., OLDEST AND LARGEST 
'Dorothy Perkins (Wichuraiana Hybrid; Jacluon 
& Perkins, 1902.) Shell pink. Blooms in 
spring only, when it is literally covered with 
innumerable dainty, pink, double flowers. 
Foliage is glossy, attractive and does not mil- 
dew. Sweetly scented. Very strong climber. 
Dr. William Gordon (H. P.) Pink flowers; petals 
edged with white and prettily imbricated; very 
strong grower. One of the best brilliant pink 
varieties and should be in every garden. 
Duchess of Albany (H. T.; Paul, 1888.) Deep 
rose, nearly red. Resembles La France except 
in color. Blooms freely. Sometimes called 
"Red La France." 
Dr. Gallaway. Cerise red. New and very dis- 
tinctive with long, peculiar drooping petals. 
Edith Part (H. T.; McGredy, 1913.) Carmine 
with chamois flushed pink. The pointed buds 
open beautifully, each petal as it expands shows 
a rosy cream upper surface, while the center 
is warm carmine, making a delightful combina- 
tion. Flowers are medium to large, double and 
moderately fragrant. Stems carry flowers 
erect. A splendid rose. 
Elizabeth Rowe (Moss; Rowe, 1866.) Beautiful 
pink. One of the best moss roses. 
Eugene Furst. Very dark velvety maroon. 
Flowers of medium size, rather flat and borne 
freely. Growth moderate. 
Emereur du Maroc (H. P. ; Guinoisseau, 1 858. ) 
Very dark velvety maroon. Flowers of medium 
size, rather flat and borne freely. 
Erna Teschendorf (Dwf. Poly.) The color is a 
brilliant carmine red. It is a very free bloomer 
and has a permanency of color which has 
always been lacking in other roses of this class. 
*Excelsa (Red Dorothy Perkins) (Wich.) Flowers 
double, bright scarlet, produced in clusters; a 
fine novelty. Anyone having seen Dorothy 
Perkins in bloom can well imagine what a mag- 
nificent sight this brilliant red rose is when in 
full bloom. 
Farbenkonigin (H. T.j Hinncr, 1902.) Bright 
carmine overlaid with silvery gloss. Color deep 
at base, light toward tips. Petals two-toned. 
Large and full. Free blooming. Very hand- 
some. 
Francis Scott Key (H. T.) Deep red; flowers 
large, very double and well formed; strong 
grower. 
•Fortune's Yellow (Brought from China by For- 
tune, 1845.) Creamy yellow, shaded orange 
and rose. Semi-double. Thought to be a hybrid 
of Cherokee and Banksia. Blooms only once 
a year, but that once is well worth while. There 
probably is no other rose that has such a pro- 
fusion of bloom at one time. The color varies 
greatly, many different shadings appearing on 
one plant. It also rejoices in the following 
synonymous names: Beauty of Glazenwood, 
Hester, San Rafael and Watkins. 
Francisca Kruger (T.; Nabonnand, 1879.) Deep 
chamois, shaded peach pink. Buds particularly 
fine. 
Frau Karl Druschki (H. P.; Lambert, 1900.) Snow 
white. Flowers extremely large, yet beauti- 
fully formed. Blooms six inches broad are 
nothing uncommon. Growth is strong and 
vigorous, with abundant foliage. It is one of 
the very best bloomers in this division. Superb. 
Sometimes called White American Beauty. 
Juliet (Pern.; Paul, 1910) 
General Mac Arthur (H. T.; Hill. 1905.) Fiery 
red. In referring to this rose before, we said 
it was destined to attain the greatest popu- 
larity. Our confidence was well grounded, 
General-Superior Arnold Janssen (H. T.; Leenders, 
1912.) Deep carmine. Flowers large, double, 
well formed and hold their shape until they 
wither. 
George Arends (H. T.; Hinner, 1910.) Delicate 
pink. A large, handsome rose of solid color 
and good form. Widely heralded as "Pink 
Frau Karl Druschki," but does not look like 
a sport from that variety. Growth is so ram- 
pant that it could easily be trained up as a 
climber and maybe should be classed as such. 
Gloire de Chedane Guinoisseau (H. P.; Guinois- 
seau, 1908.) Bright vermilion red, shaded 
velvety crimson. A truly magnificent red. 
Considered by many good judges to be superior 
to Ulrich Brunner, which is saying a good deal. 
It is probably at least as good and under some 
conditions better. In any event, it is a splendid 
rose of large size, brilliant color and a beautiful 
form. 
*Gloire de Margottin (H. P.; Margottin, 1887.) 
Dazzling red. Flowers fragrant, very large, 
full and symmetrically formed. Grrowth fairly 
vigorous. Bears a good crop of magnificent 
blooms. 
Gloire des Rosomanes (Bourbon; Vibert, 1825.) 
Bright red. Better known in California as 
"Ragged Robin." Buds produced in large clus- 
ters, but open consecutively, keeping it always 
in bloom. The open flowers are loose and semi- 
double, of no value individually, but very 
showy. Splendid hedge rose. 
General Jeff (H. T.) Large, rosy crimson flowers; 
cup-shaped when full blown. Growth vigorous. 
•VARIETIES STARRED ARE CUMBERS.
