ROSES FOR 1937 
LESTRA HIBBERD 
The Jos. H. Hill Co. 
U. S. Plant Patent No. 156, Dec. 3, 1935. 
Back in 1929, eight years ago, we disseminated a new seedling rose, Joanna Hill. We 
now have another fine seedling, Lestra Hibberd, resulting from a cross between Sweet 
Adeline and Joanna Hill. From the latter parent Lestra Hibberd gets its interesting 
color shadings. The bud is dark yellow, the open bloom orange-yellow, tinted with creamy 
white, becoming at times a light amber yellow. Lestra Hibberd is a real grower and in 
production it ranks among the best. Our records from our large planting prove that it 
can do better than twenty-five flowers to the plant. This is remarkable when the large 
size of the flower is considered. Plant some of the outstanding new rose of this year.

SIGNORA 
Jackson & Perkins Co. 
U. S. Plant Patent No. 201, Oct. 13, 1936. 
Signora is a beautiful Italian seedling rose of the novelty class that is commanding 
attention among all florists. It has a long, pointed bud, brownish-orange overlaid with 
pure orange. The bloom opens slowly and perfectly, showing a general color of orange 
flame. Foliage is often favorably commented upon but on Signora one finds as handsome, 
glossy foliage as can be imagined. It adds much to the attractiveness of the flower as a 
whole. Another truly outstanding feature of Signora is its ability to throw a long stretch 
from cut or pinch. Best grown in temperature two or three degrees cooler than average 
rose temperature.
