(A. Dickson & Sons, 1928 ) 
The open bloom is a delightfully 
shaped flower of two contrasting tints, 
the outside of petals gleaming with bright 
orange-cerise and the inside overspread 
with pale salmon-pink, flushed with 
orange-gold. Buds are firm and hand¬ 
some, richly dyed with copper tones 
before they open. Plant stands up 
vigorously and is well clothed with 
glossy, disease-resistant foliage. More 
than ordinarily vigorous, it makes a | 
splendid bush for formal bedding use m 
Provides abundance of exquisite 
blooms for cut-flowers. 60 cts. each, 
$6.00 per doz.

HT. (G. A. van Rossem, 1926 ) 
Stunning bright yellow and orange Rose of erect 
habit, with rather small foliage and thick, thorny 
canes. The medium-sized, gorgeous, globular blooms are 
golden yellow, flamed with orange and scarlet; exquisite 
clean-cut veins of deeper tones, deepening at times to 
bronze and brown. A most unusual and striking bloom. 
Best grower of its color class for southern gardens but 
fades in hot weather. 60 cts. each, $6.00 per doz.

(C. H. Mallerin, 1931 ) 
A deep, sparkling pink Rose of the Lady 
Ashtown type, borne with the utmost liberal¬ 
ity by vigorous, upright bushes which hold 
the flowers stiffly erect and make them par¬ 
ticularly suitable for cutting. The clear, 
unfading color is especially pure, and the 
general vigor and reliability of the plants have 
made friends for it in all parts of the country, 
both as a bedding Rose and as a cut-flower. 
60 cts. each, $6.00 per doz.
