W E DERIVE a great deal of satisfaction in the genuine 
pleasure and success that our increasing customers 
have with Paramount Roses. This year, we have 
a larger and uniformly finer crop than ever. We wish that 
you all could come here to see our Roses. 
Paramount Roses are two-year, field-grown plants, budded 
on Multiflora seedlings here at West Grove, Pa. They are 
grown on a heavy clay ground on improved and heavily 
fertilized soil. The plants are sprayed religiously each week 
and are otherwise kept clean, healthy, and thrifty during the 
entire period of production. As a result, they are heavy, well- 
matured stock, unsurpassed anywhere for size and quality. 
They are carefully dug with little or no exposure, stored 
naturally, and shipped in a healthy, vigorous condition. 
Furthermore, we select for our retail trade only the heaviest 
and best-branched plants. You always get the cream of the 
entire crop.

body’s favorite red Rose. 
Frau Karl Druschki. A Hybrid Perpetual that blooms through¬ 
out the whole season. Lacks fragrance but has snow-white 
blooms of immense size, fully double and of perfect form. The 
most famous of all white Roses. More vigorous in growth 
than any of the Hybrid Teas, but it should be somewhere in 
every garden. 
Golden Dawn. Sunflower-yellow, with bud touched carmine. 
A splendid Rose. A very strong grower with heavy, healthy 
foliage, and a prolific bloomer. One of the most highly recom¬ 
mended yellows and well deserving of it. 
Gruss an Aachen. Yellowish rose color. The large, full, double 
flowers cover the bush in a mass of bloom. A most splendid 
bedder, low and heavily foliaged. Blooms in masses but is fine 
for cutting and is constantly blooming. This Rose can give you 
more satisfaction with less effort than hundreds of others on 
the Rose lists. 
Henry Nevard. A Hybrid Perpetual which we find to have the 
blooming habit of a Hybrid Tea. Crimson-scarlet in color. 
Large blooms of splendid form, sweetly scented. A real 
“American Beauty.”

perfect flowers, very full, on long stems and slightly fragrant. 
A very good grower, with healthy foliage and upright, well¬ 
shaped bush.

many-branched grower with heavy foliage. Profuse bloomer 
with delicious fragrance. A very decorative bedder. 
Mrs. G. A. van Rossem. Two-toned orange and apricot-yellow, 
with golden yellow base. The reverse is often chrome-yellow 
or bronze. One of the most spectacular combinations of color 
imaginable. The bloom is fairly large and very full. Bush is 
vigorous and always in bloom. 
Mrs. Henry Morse. Bright and clear vermilion on the outside 
of the petals and flesh-pink on the inside. Buds are very long- 
pointed, developing into very large blooms of perfect form. A 
strong grower and slightly fragrant. 
Mrs. Pierre S. du Pont. Golden yellow. Has long-pointed bud 
with flowers of medium size. Color is a rich and deep yellow 
which does not fade. Plant is a low grower, compact, and very 
bushy—an ideal bedder. A constant and heavy bloomer. 
Ranked by many as our present “best yellow.” 
National Flower Guild. Crimson. Flowers large, full, and 
bright. Bush is a fast and tall grower. Always in bloom. Makes 
an ideal hedge-plant. 
President Herbert Hoover. Multicolored yellow, orange, and 
scarlet. Very large blooms on long stems, produced on especially 
vigorous bush. Very fragrant. A mighty fine Rose that holds 
a permanent place in every list.

and active bloomer, with large, fragrant flowers. Somewhat 
resembles Rev. F. Page-Roberts but far more vigorous and 
thrifty. 
Radiance. Brilliant carmine-salmon with reverse side opal-rose. 
America’s favorite Rose. Strong, sturdy grower with wonderful 
foliage; a continuous bloomer, producing large, delightfully 
fragrant, double flowers. The easiest grown and most reliable 
of all Roses. 
Red Radiance. Clear, genuine red. Sport of Radiance and its 
counterpart in all but color. Has all of its virtues. Many like 
it better than the original Radiance because of its deeper and 
richer color. 
Rev. F. Page-Roberts. Golden yellow with the reverse side 
carmine, especially in the bud, when it is magnificent. Bud is 
perfectly shaped; blooms are beautiful, double, and very fra¬ 
grant. Bush is low and spreading in type. 
Roslyn. Golden yellow with reverse side orange. A large bloom 
of rich color. Very active bloomer and bush is quite compact 
and vigorous in growth. Has proved to be a very sturdy grower. 
Sister Therese. Golden yellow; bud marked with orange-carmine. 
A vigorous and active grower; free flowering. This Rose has 
been the show-spot of our whole crop this year. We believe it 
will become one of the most popular yellows ever introduced. 
Souv. de Georges Pernet. Orient-red, spreading to carmine. 
Unusually large flower and perfectly formed. Plant low-spread¬ 
ing in growth, many-branched, and bushy. Deliciously fragrant. 
Fine bedding type. 
Talisman. Mixture of golden yellow, orange, and scarlet-red, 
with variations in nearly every bloom. One of the most widely 
known of all Roses. Deserves all that is said about it. Plant 
is very vigorous in growth and upright in form. Produces 
beautiful buds on very long stems and is very fragrant. Con¬ 
stantly blooming.

and the plant is a very vigorous grower and active bloomer, 
especially during the hot summer. 
Ville de Paris. Brilliant golden yellow. Well-formed buds; 
fairly large bloom on very long stems. Color clear and unfading. 
Plant is strong and tall growing, and is a steady bloomer. 
Slightly fragrant. Pure, rich yellow’. 
CLIMBERS 
American Beauty, Climbing. Vermilion-pink. Large, fragrant 
flowers of fine form, borne in clusters, but splendid for cutting. 
An old but still very popular variety. Blooms early in the season. 
Apeles Mestres. Clear yellow. Full, double flowers of very large 
size. Should rate as the best hardy climbing yellow. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. Bright scarlet, tinted with crimson. 
The flowers are fairly large, coming in clusters—a vivid splash 
of color which holds clear and true. Medium grower, highly 
adaptable for pillars. Blooms in midseason. 
Scorcher. Carmine-crimson. Medium grower of erect habit, and 
an abundant bloomer. Also flowers during the summer with 
scattering of blooms. 
Spanish Beauty (Mme. Gregoire Staechelin). Delicate rose- 
pink, striped with red. Extremely large blooms on long, strong 
stems, fine for cutting. Very vigorous grower, and an abundant 
bloomer. Also fragrant. Blooms early. 
Joyous Cavalier. Brilliant scarlet and unfading. A strong and 
rampant grower like Gruss an Teplitz, but many times better. 
Wonderful for shrubbery borders. 
Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria. Cream-white, with greenish center. 
The best white Hybrid Tea known. Blooms are large, full, and 
perfectly formed, with rich fragrance. Strong grower and good 
bloomer, the flowers coming on long stems. With us, it grows 
like the Radiances. We have a good strain that amazes everyone. 
Killarney, Double White. Pure white. Long-pointed buds. A 
good grower and a good bedder. One of the famous Killarneys. 
A nice Rose. 
Lady Ashtown. Clear rose-pink. Long-pointed buds and bril¬ 
liant flowers. Very vigorous and bushy in habit. Unusually 
active bloomer and splendid variety. So much better than 
hundreds of Roses recently introduced. 
Margaret McGredy. Orange-scarlet. Very large, long-pointed 
buds and fine double flowers. Bush very vigorous and full in 
growth, with healthy, glossy foliage. Constant and heavy 
producer of flowers.

gold. Bears immense flowers of perfect form, on long stems. 
Vigorous, healthy, and bushy grower like Radiance, one of 
its parents.

with a darker center. Usually classified as a Hybrid Perpetual 
but a truly everblooming Rose in action. Flowers large and 
beautiful. Vigorous, upright grower, bushy, extremely healthy, 
and constantly in bloom. 
Mme. Butterfly. Rose color mixed with apricot and yellow. 
Most perfectly formed buds, long lasting when cut. Highly

We earnestly recommend fall planting of Roses. The plants 
are freshly dug. The soil is moist and mellow, enabling the 
roots to establish themselves before winter. You need only to 
hill up the soil about 8 inches to protect them. Be absolutely 
certain that you do hill up. 
Spring planting is equally successful, but it must be done 
early, usually from March 15 to the end of April.
