Gold Medal Rose 
The President Hoover Rose 
This Rose was the winner of four American 
GOLD MEDALS and two foreign Certificates 
of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society, 
London, and from the great Rose exhibit at 
Barcelona, Spain. 
The American Rose Society in April, 1935, 
presented the Gertrude M. Hubbard Gold 
Medal to the President Hoover Rose as the 
most outstanding garden rose, of American 
origin, that has been introduced in the last 
five years. 
The John Cook Medal, one of the highest 
awards possible to be given a Rose in this 
country, and which is awarded every three 
years (once for a garden Rose and the next 
time for a greenhouse Rose) was awarded to 
the ever popular President Hoover Rose by the 
American Rose Society in September, 1935.
