McGREDYS IVORY (Portadown Ivory). 
This variety is creamy ivory white, remark¬ 
ably lovely and delicate in texture, which 
turns to a very clear white as it opens. 
The buds are just about as perfect as roses 
can be and the flowers possess a light dam¬ 
ask perfume.

yet seen in roses, being a wonderful and 
beautiful combination of shades of scarlet, 
coppery-orange and heavily flushed on the 
outside of petals with Lincoln-red. The ef¬ 
fect is rich and dazzling. Large flowers 
perfectly formed, very freely produced and 
fragrant. Vigorous in growth and one of 
the best all purpose varieties. 
NICHT O ne *'* le darkest of all roses, 
iNiv^ni. deep crimson shaded black and ma¬ 
roon. The buds and flowers are well shaped, 
quite double, and it has the spicy clove and 
cinnamon fragrance that you can imagine 
would be wafted on the balmy airs of a 
tropical night. Like most dark roses, the 
flowers are at their best in cooler weather. 
nr»o U DinccnM This variety spreads

until it becomes about 4 feet across, form¬ 
ing a much-branched, compact plant not 
more than 2 feet high. Most of the time 
it is a mass of flowers, being literally cov¬ 
ered with clusters of little light rose-pink 
blooms, each bud and flower perfect in its 
way; quite double, and extremely fragrant, 
the color resembling that of a splendid Flow¬ 
ering Peach. 
One of the Finest of the New Roses 
cicted tuedccc Its long-pointed buds are 
MiltK intKtst. chrome - yellow, heavily 
marked with carmine; the open flower is 
rich daffodil-yellow and holds its color well. 
Sweetbriar fragrance. The blooms come 
freely on splendid cutting stems. A splendid 
keeper and has very good foliage. Really 
an outstanding variety. 
< iji lj Great quantities of dainty, extremely 
LULU ’ long and slender buds of coral-apri¬ 
cot, with which the bush is covered at all 
times. There is not a rose more exquisitely 
formed in the bud stage than Lulu. An 
astonishingly large percentage of rose lovers 
will put Lulu at the very top of their list 
of roses. 
An Introduction of Great Merit 
MAX KRAUSE. 
Probably the most yellow 
Rose of the year for out¬ 
door use—a gold that stays gold. Long bud 
and cup-formed bloom of great substance 
freely borne on a long stem. Foliage leath¬ 
ery and very resistant to Rose troubles. One 
of the few roses we have seen that retains 
its color through the blooming period.

Grenoble 
r dckihri c The citizens of Grenoble, 
toKclNODLc. France, thought enough of this 
red Rose to ask the originator, Charles Mal- 
lerin, to name it for their city. The plant is 
very vigorous and the blooms come on un¬ 
usually long stems, making it one of the 
best garden Roses for cutting. The buds are 
crimson, but the open flower is brilliant red, 
almost scarlet, and a bed of Grenoble stands 
out like a fire. It is fully double and of 
large size. Easily one of the best reds, 
n r n i_ir\r\\/cD A sport from the rose Presi- 
KfcU rlUUVtK. dent Hoover that combines 
all the good points of the parent, but an 
entirely different shade. The color is a 
beautiful bright red equally satisfactory in 
the bud or open flower. Remarkably free 
flowering and among the most vigorous 
growers of all hybrid tea roses. Long, point¬ 
ed buds and large open flowers that are de¬ 
lightfully fragrant. 
An Improved Pernet 
DmiAKirE A rose that combines the good 
KUmAiNt,c. features of the popular Sou¬ 
venir de Claudius Pernet but is a decided 
improvement in that the bad features of the 
latter are eliminated. A striking shade of 
yellow with long, pointed bud of exquisite 
shape and large double fragrant flower. 
Vigorous in habit, blooming frequently over 
a long period.__ 
ciimvict The long, beautifully shaped 
5UINM5I. buds and full, open flowers have 
a predominating color of glorious deep 
orange-yellow with varying tints of copper, 
buff, and bronzy pink. The flowers are 
sweetly fragrant and keep in splendid con¬ 
dition for three or four days after cutting, 
this long-keeping quality making this lovely 
rose a very desirable one for cut flowers

seem to be the right kind of words in the 
dictionary to describe this lovely Rose. 
It was chosen as the most beautiful Rose 
of France in 1932. The buds are large, long- 
pointed, and coral in color; they slowly un¬ 
fold to a coral-pink flower developing a 
satiny peach tint and sheen which is about 
the loveliest finish we have ever seen on a 
rose petal. Its fragrance is simply delicious.
