Gathered in this section are the finest new Roses produced by famous American and European 
hybridizers. Grow them in your garden and enjoy the latest creations in rare colors and fragrance. 
Descriptions of patented Roses are those of the introducers. Due to the fact that we are only co¬ 
distributors of many patented varieties (which we are not allowed to produce in our own fields) and 
must buy these from the patentee, we cannot be responsible for the descriptions or results obtained 
from these plants, merely repeating in our catalogue the description of the patentee for the information 
of our customers.

HT. (Soupert & Notting, 1929) 
One of the finest garden Roses we 
have ever grown. 
Strong, bushy plants of uniform 
growth, with healthy dark green foli¬ 
age down to the ground. 
The ovoid buds are orange with 
burnt-orange markings, and open to 
4 -inch flowers of deep orange-yellow 
with a slight pink flush on the outer 
petals; as the bloom ages it goes 
through straw-yellow, finishing deep 
cream. The flowers are of rather loose 
construction and open almost flat. 
Deliciously fragrant. 
The petalage varies considerably: 
During the summer the flowers may be 
only semi-double, with not over 15 
petals; on the other hand, we have 
counted as many as 35 petals during 
the cool weather of September. 
During the bad black-spot season of 
1935 , when many Roses were badly 
defoliated, “Soupert’s” foliage was 
clean all the way and the plants 
bloomed steadily from late spring until 
late November. Price, $1.25 each. 
Souv. de Jean Soupert. $1.25 each. 
ALEZANE. HT. (L. Pahissa, 1934.) Plant Patent 
No. 116. Bud urn-shaped, large, reddish brown; 
flowers cupped, opening to rich apricot, and 
reverse of petals sorrel, striped with yellow veins.

tremely interesting and striking novelty from 
Spain. $1.50 each. 
AMELIA EARHART. HT. (L. Reymond, 1929.) 
Plant Patent No. 63. Giant yellow bloom with a 
golden yellow center, paling at the edges to light 
canary. Very fragrant. A free and continuous 
bloomer all season. One of the largest Roses, and 
of exceedingly handsome form. This glorious 
flower is one of the loveliest of the extra large 
Roses and is really a worthy Rose to carry the 
name of the famous aviatrix. $1.50 each. 
BARCELONA. HT. (W. Kordes Sons, 1932.) 
Somewhat like Sensation in general appearance, 
this beautiful dark crimson Rose has 75 or more 
petals arranged in a symmetrical, cupped form 
with a rich old Rose fragrance. The color does 
not burn in strong sunlight and the blooms last 
in good condition for several days. Plant vigorous 
and upright, blooming freely throughout the 
season. $1.25 each. 
BETTER TIMES. HT. (Jos. H. Hill Co., 1934.) 
Plant Patent No. 23. An outstanding new Rose

brilliant cerise-red flowers. Being produced on 
long, strong stems, they are excellent for cutting.
