ROSES 
2 year field-grown 
No. 1, 50c postpaid 
Angele Pernet. Deep flaming orange, changing to brilliant 
tango. 
Betty. See back cover. 
Betty Uprichard. Inner face of petals is delicate salmon-pink 
but glowing carmine on the outside, with a suffusion of orange. 
Dainty Bess. Large, single flowers, 2% to 3 inches across, 
with broad fimbriated petals of pure, soft rose-pink. The large 
flat clusters of stamens, held above vinous red filaments, pro¬ 
vide a remarkable color effect. 
Dame Edith Helen. A new, glowing, fragrant pink rose on 
erect, rigid stems. Free-flowering. 
Etoile de Holland. See back cover. 
Frau Karl Druschki (Show Queen.) A remarkably vigorous 
gi'ower. Its snowy-white flowers are very large, perfect in 
form, with large shell-shaped petals. 
General MacArthur. This is probably the greatest favorite 
of all the garden Roses. The flowers are a vivid crimson- 
scarlet and retain their brilliancy when fully expanded. Very 
highly perfumed and practically free from mildew. 
Golden Ophelia. The flower is of medium size, perfect form, 
golden yellow in the center, paling slightly toward the outer 
petals. 
Hadley. See back cover. 
Imperial Potentate. Dark, shiny rose-pink, very double with 
firm petals. 
Irish Fireflame. Beautiful single Rose, bearing its flowers in 
clusters of five or more; buds are a rich, deep orange, flushed 
with crimson. 
TALISMAN 
Margaret McGredy. A most vigorous, thrifty bush with su¬ 
perb foliage, producing a continuous succession of handsome, 
globular orange-scarlet flowers throughout the entire season. 
One of the finest garden Roses. 
Miss Rowena Thom. Huge, globular flowers of glowing rose- 
pink, shaded with dusky gold at the base of the petals. Plants 
are tremendously vigorous, producing a profusion of handsome 
blooms. 
Joanna Hill. Long-pointed buds, opening to large, full, fra¬ 
grant flowers of glorious clear sulphur-yellow, toned deeper 
in the center. Splendid for cutting. Vigorous, upright grower 
and continuous bloomer. 
Julien Potin. Rich golden yellow that grows richer and deeper 
as the flowers mature. The buds are long and shapely, and 
develop into large, full flowers of beautiful form, delightfully 
sweet-scented. Upright; very free-flowering. 
Lady Hillingdon. A grand Rose for garden decoration as it 
blooms continuously. Buds very long. Pleasing shades of 
orange-yellow. 
La France. One of the finest Roses. The color is a most 
lovely rose-pink with silvery luster. Constant bloomer, and 
very sweet-scented. 
Los Angeles. See back cover. 
JOANNA HILL 
Mine. Butterfly. See back cover. 
Mine. Edouard Herriot (The Daily Mail Rose). The long-pointed 
buds are coral-red, shaded yellow at base; open, semi-double 
flowers are beautiful coral-red shaded with yellow and bright 
rosy-scarlet. A vigorous grower. 
Mrs. A. R. Barraclough. A superb pink Rose with long buds 
of perfect form, opening to large, fully double blooms of 
glistening pink, with a glint of yellow at the base of the petals; 
fragrant. 
Mrs. E. P. Thom. Well-formed buds and fairly large, double 
flowers of clear, even yellow, borne singly on good stems. 
Mrs. G. A. Van Rossem. There is no more brilliant and out-of- 
the-ordinary color in Roses than is found in this variety. The 
general color effect is intense orange overlaid on a dark golden 
yellow ground, the brilliant coloring being intensified by the 
rich bronze veins which stand out over the petals and look as 
though they had been pencilled on. 
Mrs. Henry Bowles. Warm pink blooms, flushed with salmon, 
in profusion from early Spring until Fall. 
Norman Lambert. Salmon rose suffused bronze; shading to 
yellow at the base. 
President Herbert Hoover. Long-pointed buds of scarlet and 
gold, opening to broad, semi-double flowers of creamy orange 
and deep rose, with huge, thick petals. Plants very vigorous. 
Fine for cutting. 
Radiance. Very free flowering and a strong grower. The 
flowers are a beautiful blending of shades of carmine-rose with 
opal and carmine reflected, and are very fragrant. 
Red Radiance. The same as radiance, except it is a beautiful 
shade of carmine-red and very fragrant. 
Souv. de C. Pernet. See back cover. 
Talisman. The Rose of many gold medals. A combination of 
shadings of gold, apricot, yellow and deep pink or old-rose. 
The outside of the petals is bright yellow, gold and pink: as 
the flower develops and the petals unfold they become bright 
apricot, gold and deep rose-pink. 
CLIMBING ROSES

inches in size, which are produced in great abundance.

glowing slender buds.

variety in color.
