HYBRID TEA ROSES, continued 
Mrs. Sam McGredy. (S. McGredy & Son, 1929.) Superb, high- 
centered, long-lasting, fragrant flower of scarlet-copper-orange, 
heavily flushed with red. One of the finest Roses introduced 
in years. $1.00 each. 
Ophelia. (W. Paul & Son, 1912.) One of the old loves of the 
Rose-garden. A dainty, pearly pink flower, lightly touched 
with gold and cream color. The blooms are exquisitely formed. 
Portadown Ivory (McGredy’s Ivory). (S. McGredy & Son, 1929.) 
A beautifully formed Rose of delicate creamy white, especially 
handsome in the bud form, with long, deep, shell-like petals 
sweetly curled and folded. The plants are tall; flower-stems 
long. Blooms long lasting and fragrant. $1.00 each. 
President Herbert Hoover. (L. B. Coddington, 1930.) A new 
Rose of astonishing vigor, producing long, handsomely shaped 
yellow buds deeply stained with maroon and copper, opening 
to big, half-double flowers of soft straw-yellow, flushed with 
deep rose on the outer surface. Very popular. 
Radiance. (J. Cook, 1908.) The best-known garden Rose in 
America. Extremely vigorous, producing plants 2 to 4 feet 
high. The bold, sparkling pink flowers are very fragrant. 
Red Radiance. (Gude Bros., 1916.) A bright cherry-red counter¬ 
part of Radiance. Both varieties are deliciously fragrant. 
Rev. F. Page-Roberts. (B. R. Cant & Sons, 1921.) A most 
magnificent flower of golden yellow, splashed with crimson and 
copper shades on the outside of the bud. It is especially hand¬ 
some in the Autumn. 
RICHARDSON WRIGHT. (J. H. Nicolas, 1931.) Large, 
globular flowers of iridescent pearl-pink, tinged with carmine 
on the backs of the petals. A vigorous grower; particularly 
free-flowering in Midsummer. $1.00 each. 
ROSLYN. (E. Towill, 1929.) Distinct new yellow variety which 
has proved of high merit in the garden. The big, double, 
golden yellow flowers are exquisitely formed and are produced 
with unusual freedom. $1.00 each. 
SCHWABENLAND. (V. Berger, 1928.) A very new variety re¬ 
ported to be extremely hardy because of a strain of Rugosa 
blood. The flowers are huge, reddish pink, and very double. 
A distinct and perhaps important novelty. 
SOLEIL DE FRANCE. (L. Mermet, 1931.) Big, egg-shaped, 
golden yellow buds, splashed with crimson, opening to large, 
fully double, fragrant, sunny yellow flowers with reddish 
centers. Plant grows vigorously and is a free bloomer. $2.00 
each. 
SOUVENIR (Golden Talisman). Plant Patent No. 25. (A. N. 
Pierson, 1930.) Splendid clear, gleaming yellow sport of the 
popular Talisman, which it resembles in all respects except its 
shining, unsullied color. The plant is a remarkable grower and 
blooms freely. $1.00 each. 
Souvenir de Claudius Pemet. (Pernet-Ducher, 1920.) Splendid 
flowers of clear, light yellow, with specially handsome, dark 
green, glossy foliage. A very dependable garden Rose of a 
color which is hard to get. 
Talisman. (Montgomery Co., 1929.) A Rose of sensational 
appearance, combining tones of scarlet and orange-yellow with 
intermediate harmonious shades. The bushes are extraordi¬ 
narily vigorous and produce an unceasing succession of flowers. 
Vaterland. (V. Berger, 1928.) Massive, globular flowers of deep 
maroon-crimson; very majestic and substantial, fragrant and 
long lasting. Vigorous and free-flowering. 
Ville de Paris. (Pernet-Ducher, 1926.) Relatively tall plants, 
bearing large, globular, semi-double flowers of clear, translucent 
yellow. A very charming and graceful bedding variety. 
Wilhelm Kordes. (W. Kordes Sons, 1922.) An attractive, pointed 
flower of ruddy salmon-pink, tinted with golden yellow and 
copper. Plants are branching and vigorous. 
WILLIAM ORR. (S. McGredy & Son, 1930.) An extremely full, 
velvety crimson flower with a high-pointed center. Plant 
vigorous and sturdy. One of the most shapely and generally 
satisfactory new crimson Roses. $1.00 each. 
Willowmere. (Pernet-Ducher, 1913.) One of the finest Roses in 
the world. Long, glowing salmon-pink buds, opening to 
blooms of brilliant shell-pink, with a luminous glow of yellow. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
The varieties which belong to this class make heavy bushes 
3 to 6 feet tall and bear a profusion of fine, bold flowers in early 
Summer and a few scanty blooms from then until Autumn when 
a fair second crop is produced. Hardier than Hybrid Teas. 
EUGENE FURST. (Soupert & Notting, 1875.) A fine old Hybrid 
Perpetual with wonderfully deep velvet-crimson flowers on long 
stems. For many years a consistent prize-winner at shows. 
Frau Karl Druschid. (P. Lambert, 1900.) Finest white Rose of 
any class; beautifully shaped and enormous. Flowers freely 
throughout the season when established. Not fragrant. 
General Jacqueminot. (Roussel, 1852.) A popular old favorite 
with almost double, beautifully pointed flowers of light scarlet- 
crimson; intensely fragrant. 
Georg Arends. (W. Hinner, 1910.) Long-pointed buds and 
exquisitely shaped flowers of clear, soft pink. Fragrant and 
extremely appealing. One of the most beautiful. 
Mrs. John Laing. (H. Bennett, 1887.) A very popular Rose of 
erect habit, with cup-shaped flowers of glowing pink, double 
and very fragrant. Blooms freely in Autumn. 
Paul Neyron. (A. Levet, 1869.) A very popular old Rose with 
smooth stems and gigantic flowers of deep purple-rose, some¬ 
times freely produced in Autumn. 
Ulrich Brunner. (F. Levet, 1881.) Tall-growing, robust plant 
which produces an abundance of huge, circular, frilled flowers 
of glowing cherry-red. Very showy and popular Rose. 
A New Class of Everblooming 
Hybrid Perpetuals 
These robust varieties are bedding plants, their growth not ex¬ 
ceeding that of well-grown Hybrid Teas; actually, they are Hybrid 
Teas, plus hardiness. (The following list is in order of novelty.) 
OTTO KRAUSS. (C. Weigand, 1931; introduced in U. S. by 
Joseph Breck & Sons, 1933.) Rich copper bud opening to a 
large, double bloom of orange-copper, lightened with salmon 
and gold at the bases of the petals; quite fragrant. Three or 
four blooms come on long stems, opening in succession. Vigor¬ 
ous plant, with shiny, healthy foliage. $2.00 each. 
S. M. GUSTAVE V. (P. Nabonnand, 1922.) As prolific as any 
Hybrid Tea. The medium to large blooms are brilliant Paul 
Neyron pink, very double, heavily scented with true old Rose 
perfume. We consider it one of the best everblooming pink 
Roses. An ideal bedding variety. $1.00 each. 
MME. ALBERT BARBIER. (Barbier & Co., 1925.) Color 
identical to that of the lovely Mrs. Aaron Ward—buff, salmon, 
and yellow. The large blooms are artistically nested in hand¬ 
some foliage and have long stems for cutting. 75 cts. each. 
HENRY NEVARD. (F. Cant & Co., 1924.) A mammoth bloom 
of most perfect form and a frequent winner as “Most Beauti¬ 
ful Rose in the Show.” It is velvety crimson in color, and 
very fragrant. Stems are often 2 feet long. $1.00 each.

Austrian Brier Roses 
These are shrub Roses and should not be planted in beds with 
the varieties wanted for cutting. They are ornamental bushes to 
be used as lawn specimens or in shrubby borders. 
$1.00 each; 10 for $9.00 
Austrian Copper (Rosa Joetida bicolor). (Gerarde, 1596.) Graceful 
shrubs with small foliage and brown stems, covered with 
innumerable single flowers of intense copper-red on the inner 
surface of the petals and golden yellow on the outside. 
Harison’s Yellow. (Harison, 1830.) The fine old-fashioned bush 
Rose which grows in old farmyards and gardens all over New 
England. Thousands of bright yellow, semi-double flowers in 
long sprays adorn its spreading branches in early Summer. 
Persian Yellow (R.fcetida persiana). (H. Willock, 1837.) Some¬ 
times mistaken for Harison’s Yellow, but a less vigorous plant 
with smaller, more cup-shaped, and deeper golden yellow 
flowers. An extremely handsome, decorative shrub.
