BETTER TIMES 
(Plant Patent No. 23, Jos. H. Hill Co.) 
A cerise-pink sport of Briarcliff found on the Jos. H. Hill Co. range in January, 1931. It is thought 
so well of in Richmond that nearly one hundred thousand were planted here last spring. The foliage 
in size and texture is similar to its parent in every way. However, Better Times has proved to be a 
stronger grower than any of the other Columbia-type Roses. It characteristically produces long stems 
without pinching, which gives it a decided advantage over the Premier varieties. Because of this, and 
the fact that it is such an easy doer and is so resistant to the common diseases, we predict that Better 
Times will replace all dark pink varieties now being grown. 
MRS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT 
(Plant Patent No. 80, Traendly & Schenck) 
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt is the best yellow sport of Talisman yet produced. The bud is pointed 
and the color a golden yellow, with slight shadings of delicate apricot; open flower is a lasting yellow, 
intense in its coloring. It is borne on a strong stem and the plant is a free bloomer, producing good, 
salable flowers, singularly free from any tendency to produce “bull heads” or malformed buds. 
TOKEN 
(Plant Patent Applied for, The Montgomery Co., Inc.) 
This new seedling Rose, resulting from Mme. Butterfly X Premier Supreme, is a single-toned orange 
color in the bud. As it opens it retains this glowing color in the inner petals, softening to a combination 
of peach-pink and orange in its outer petals. The flower is medium in size and fullness, borne on a 
short neck, with leaves close to the flower. Buds are uniform in size, color, and shape. They should 
be cut before the petals reflex. Token has proved to be an excellent shipper. The plants produce freely 
on uniformly heavy stems and require no special method of growing.
