THE GOOD d; REESE COMPANY WHOLESALE TRADE LIST 
HYBRID TEA ROSES-Continued 
FRANCIS SCOTT KEY (Cook, 1914)—An American 
seedling-, raised by John Cook. It is a heavy dou¬ 
ble Hose of great substance. In color, red. It 
shows good growing characteristics and is un¬ 
doubtedly a valuable variety. Throughout the 
summer this Rose was unequaled as a cut Rose 
and it is proving equally good in midwinter to 
be an excellent grower, opening perfectly and 
worthy of unqualified recommendation. 
FRE1FRAU VONDER GOLTZ (Lambert, 1913)— 
Rosy-salmon, large, full and fragrant. 
C. AMKDEK HAMMOND (Alex. Dickson, 1915)—The 
color is cadmium or deep apricot egg yolk, shad¬ 
ing off to fawn or delicate buff. Blooms large, 
full, perfectly formed; very floriferous and very 
fragrant. A great acquisition and a Rose we set 
great store on. 
(i LOIRE DES BELGES (Chambard, 1916)—Growth 
vigorous and free, flowering continuously until 
late in the season. Buds oval, long and of ele¬ 
gant form with vivid colors of carmine and 
cochineal. Fine for massing and a fine cut flower. 
GOLDEN EMBLEM (McGredy, 1917)— It is so per¬ 
petual flowering that as a garden and bedding 
Hose it is without a rival. At its best it sur¬ 
passes Marechal Niel in shape and formation, and 
with its wonderful coloring is a most 4 wonder¬ 
ful Hose. The coloring is yellow cadmium toning 
to sunflower-yellow. Altogether the most strik¬ 
ing as well as the most remarkable variety among 
modern Roses. Awarded the gold medal of the 
National Rose Society of England, also the Amer¬ 
ican Rose Society’s medal at Philadelphia, April, 
1917, for the best Rose not yet in commerce. 
GOLDEN MEYER (Paul & Son, 1915)—A most 
charming Rose of a deep golden-yellow. A fine 
garden Rose and is also valuable as a cut flower. 
Y r ery free. 
GORGEOUS (Hugh Dickson, 1915)—Flowers large 
and full, exquisitely formed and produced in end¬ 
less profusion. Deep orange-yellow and heavily 
veined with reddish copper, the most charming 
and gorgeous coloring which has yet been in¬ 
troduced. The most striking Rose in existence. 
Gold medal, N. It. S. 
HADLEY (Montgomery Co., 1914)—Hadley is a de¬ 
velopment from a line of seedlings raised by Alex. 
Montgomery, Jr., the varieties used in this de¬ 
velopment being Liberty, General McArthur and 
Richmond. In color it is a deep velvety crimson, 
retaining its brilliancy at all seasons of the year. 
The variety is double and buds are well formed. 
The fragrance is excelled only by American 
Beauty. It is a strong, rapid grower, and the 
flowers are borne on long, stiff stems. It has 
proven itself under thorough trial to be an all- 
the-year-round forcing variety. 
HELEN TAFT (U. S. Botannical Gardens, 1914)—A 
rich cerise-pink. Flower very large. A free 
bloomer and will become as famous as a bedding 
Rose as is the variety President Taft. Growth 
very strong. Keep your eye on this variety. 
HENRIETTA —One of the finest in existence for 
bedding, garden and cirt-flower purposes; blooms 
erect on long stems; buds long and pointed. 
Color fiery orange-crimson, changing to soft 
coral-salmon. Very hardy. Free in habit. 
HERZOG JOHANN ALBRECHT (Jacobs, 1914) — 
Coppery-orange on a yellow ground, outer petals 
changing to clear salmon-rose; large, very full, 
o fine form, fragrant. Altogether a desirable 
Rose. 
H. F. FILERS (Lambert, 1914)—Outer petals car- 
mine-rose; center carmine and slate-blue-red. 
Buds very long and pointed; flowers large and 
full Avith high center. 
HON. MRS. It. C. GROSVENOR (B. R. Cant, 1916)— 
Blooms of fair size and substance. Color, outer 
petals porcelain-flesh, center deep orange-yellow. 
A fine bedder. 
HOOSIER BEAUTY (Dorner, 1915)—We use de¬ 
scription of E. G. Hill Co.: “If you need a more 
profitable red Rose than the one you are growing, 
‘Hoosier Beauty’ is your variety. It is as fragrant 
as Richmond; has more petals, a stiffer stem, a 
texture like velvet. In color, glowing crimson- 
scarlet. with darker shadings. The bud is of good 
length, ships well in the close-cut state, and 
opens into a magnificent bloom, quite dazzling in 
velvety brilliance. As soon as thoroughly estab¬ 
lished in the soil it sends out long, stiff growths 
with a bud on every shoot. It does not need to 
be pinched like ICillarney or Richmond, but pro¬ 
duces naturally, stems two to three feet in length; 
each plant keeps up a very close succession of 
bloom, and again unlike Richmond it is a good 
summer Rose. It is a clean grower, shows very 
little inclination to ‘spot’ or mildew; indeed, the 
variety is quite clear of both. It is an easy doer, 
grows side by side with Richmond and Killarney. 
and has become instantly popular and in heavy 
demand in the four cities where blooms have been 
sold, flower buyers through the section calling 
for it by name. We are describing the Rose very 
fully in response to questions asked us by intend¬ 
ing purchasers.’’ We believe this Rose will make 
its mark as a garden variety. 
H. V. MACHIN (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—A dazzling 
rose of gigantic size. Its intensely black grained 
scarlet-crimson blooms we consider unique 
amongst all Roses. Awarded gold medal, N. R. S., 
and several other medals for best bloom. A truly 
magnificent Rose. 
IMOGEN. (W. Paul & Son, 1915)—Orange-yellow in 
center, shading towards the edge of petals to 
pale yellow and creamy-white. A great acquisi¬ 
tion to Roses of its color. 
JOSEPHINE (W. Paul & Son, 1914)—Rosy-flesh, 
base of petals salmon-yellow, large and full, of 
fine shape; fine both for exhibition and decora¬ 
tive purposes. 
KILLARNEY BRILLIANT (Alex. Dickson, 1914) — 
The introducers are to be congratulated sixteen 
years after the advent of Killarney in giving us 
this distinct novelty, which is undoubtedly the 
best of, the Killarney type. Killarney Brilliant 
has the same habit of growth and the same free¬ 
dom of bloom as its parent, while the flower is 
more double. The color is a very brilliant pink 
and varies like Killarney. In the garden in 
bright weather is clear pink, and in dull weather 
almost crimson. Extra. 
LADY BOWATER (Easlea, 1915)—Creamy-white 
suffused pale apricot; blooms very large, of con¬ 
ical form and carried erect; growth vigorous. 
Extra fine. 
LADY GREENALL (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—Intense 
saffron-orange, heavily zoned and overspread on 
deep creamy-white; reflex of petals faintly suf¬ 
fused delicate shell-pink, large, perfectly finished, 
very floriferous, strongly tea perfumed. A truly 
magnificent Rose. 
Lillian Moore. 
LILLIAN MOORE (Hugh Dickson, 1917) —No Rose 
ever has been offered to the public with the same 
credentials, having won in strenuous open com¬ 
petition with Roses from all countries of the 
world the much-coveted One-Thousand-Dollar- 
Trophy offered by the “Panama-Pacific Exposi¬ 
tion” for the best new seedling Rose not in com¬ 
merce, and named “Lillian Moore” in honor of the 
wife of the president of the exposition, Mr. 
Charles C. Moore. Color deep pure Indian-yellow 
with slightly deeper center; long buds; free 
bloomer. A gem.
