DR. W. VAN FLEET. Cl. (Dr. W. Van Fleet, 1910.) 
A Rose which on account of its dainty and exquisitely 
shaped buds and flowers, has become a great favorite. 
The long pointed buds are of a rich flesh-pink on stems 12 
to 18 inches long; splendid for cutting. Undoubtedly the 
best hardy climber, supreme in vigor, adaptability, and 
sheer beauty of foliage and flower. 
DUCHESS OF ATHOLL. H. T. 
(Dobbie & Co., Ltd., 1928.) 
Large, globular buds and flowers of deep bronzy yel¬ 
low, tinged with orange and old-rose. The plant is 
very vigorous and bushy, and a perfuse bloomer. This 
Rose has the most striking color of any recent variety, 
and is of especially handsome shape when half open. 
The plant is extremely vigorous, but requires a little 
extra winter protection. 
E. G. HILL. H. T. (E. G. Hill & Co., 1929.) 
Large, ovoid buds and immense dazzling red flowers, 
shading to darker crimson, on long stems. Plant vigor¬ 
ous and free blooming. This Rose originally used as a 
greenhouse forcing variety, has proven better out¬ 
doors than inside. It has plenty of petals well placed 
to make a flower of finest form.
