INDEPENDENCE DAY. H. T. (Bees, Ltd., 1919.) 
Flaming yellow buds, heavily shaded with copper and 
brown, opening quickly to moderately large flowers which 
fade to light orange-pink. Strong grower, of upright 
habit and a very heavy bloomer. One of the best 
brilliant colored varieties of this type. 
JACOTTE. Cl. (Barbier & Co., 1920.) 
Large, semi-double flowers of orange-yellow, tinted 
copper-red, borne in clusters. Strong profusely blooming 
plant. In effect the flowers are much like Independence 
Day, but a little smaller. We know of no other climber 
more beautiful than Jacotte. 
JOANNA HILL. H. T. (J.H.Hill & Co., 1928.) 
Large, long buds and deep, full flowers of fine creamy 
yellow, flushed with orange at the base. Tall, strong 
grower, producing blooms on long, strong stems. This 
is a very fine yellow Rose, the stems are very long, and 
when the flowers are cut, quickly renew them selves to 
produce new blooms. A very fine variety for producing 
long-stemmed cut flowers. 
JOHN RUSSELL. H. T. (Dobbie & Co., 1924.) 
This new sort is a valuable addition to any list, as we 
have not enough of red Roses of outstanding merit. A 
very strong vigorous grower; both bud and flowers are 
of lovely form, and rich, velvety, deep crimson color.
