Cuba 
IRISH ROSES 
A class of Hybrid Tea Roses whose flowers are single or only partially double. While 
they are called “Irish Roses,” it does not necessarily follow that they are of Irish origin. 
They were, however, largely brought to the market by Rose-growers of the Emerald Isle. 
To many people the beauty of the bloom lies in the bud rather than in the open flower. 
A permanent characteristic is the profuse blooming habit. The plants are entirely hardy, 
growing 'well in the open sun, thus adding to their value in the Rose-garden. Likewise, they 
are desirable for cutting, as long sprays may be clipped for interior decorations. The culture 
of this group is exactly the same as that given to the usual class of Elybrid Tea Roses. 
Cecil. HT. (1926.) Flowers very large, often 4 inches across, rich golden yellow. The 
blooms are single but are borne in large clusters on long stems, and are produced early 
and late over a considerable period of time. The plant is branching and bushy in habit, 
with mildew-proof foliage. 2-yr., heavy plants, 75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz., prepaid. 
Cuba. HT. (1926.) A very large, semi-double flower, cardinal-red with a slight yellow 
tinge. While it is very beautiful it fades quickly, yet withal we love this Rose for its color¬ 
ing. It may be classed as a single flower yet it is very striking and beautiful. The plant 
is vigorous and upright in growth and with few thorns. 2-yr., heavy 
plants, 50 cts. each, $5.00 per doz., prepaid. 
Dainty Bess. HT. (1925.) A striking and distinct single, broad-petaled 
flower. The rose-colored blooms are borne in clusters and are distinguished 
by the large, flat group of stamens. 2-yr., heavy plants, 60 cts. each, 
$6.00 per doz., prepaid.
