HYBRID TEA ROSES—Continued. 
Newer Varieties and a Few That Are Scarce. 
FREIFRAU YONDER GOLTZ (Lambert, 1913)— | 
Rosy-salmon large, full and fragrant. 
G. A ME DEE HAMMO.M) (Alex. Dickson, 1915)—The 
color is cadmium or deep apricot egg yolk, shad¬ 
ing off to fawn or delicate buff. Blooms large, j 
full, perfectly formed; very floriferous and very ; 
fragrant. A great acquisition and a Rose we set I 
great store on. 
GOLDEN EMBLEM (McGredy, 1917)—It is so per¬ 
petual flowering that as a garden and bedding 
Rose 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 wonder¬ 
ful Rose. 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. 
Very 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. R. 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. Botanical 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. 
HERZOG JOHANN ALBRECHT (Jacobs, 1914) — 
Coppery-orange on a yellow ground, outer petals 
changing to clear salmon-rose; large, very full, 
of fine form, fragrant. Altogether a desirable 
Rose. 
H. F. EILER.S (Lambert, 1914)—Outer petals car¬ 
mine-rose; center carmine and slate-blue-red. 
Buds very long and pointed; flowers large and 
full with high center. 
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 Knowing, 
‘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 Killarney 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. 
IU. 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 acqui¬ 
sition 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. Ex¬ 
tra fine. 
LADY GREEXALL (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. 
LOS ANGELES (Howard and Smith, 1917)—Origi¬ 
nators’ description: “Los Angeles is, by all odds, 
one of the finest Roses ever introduced. The 
growth is very vigorous, and produces a contin¬ 
uous succession of long-stemmed flowers of a 
luminous flame-pink toned with coral and shaded 
with translucent gold at the base of the petals. 
In richness of fragrance it equals in intensity the 
finest Marechal Neil. The buds are long h,nd 
pointed and expand into a flower of mammoth 
proportions, while the beauty of form and ever 
increasing wealth of color is maintained from 
the incipient bud until the last petal drops.” 
LVCIEX CHAURE (Soupert and Netting, 1914) — 
Flesh illuminated with clear rosy cream; very 
large, of regular form; free flowering. 
MADAME BARDOU JOB (Dubrieul, 1914)—Chrome- 
yellow and canary citron-yellow, large, full and 
cupped form. Very free flowering and very dis¬ 
tinct. 
MADAME THEODORE DELACOI RT (Pernet Duell¬ 
er, 1914)—Reddish-salmon shaded clear yellow; 
large flowers of globular form; a rare coior. 
MARGARET DICKSON HAMILL (Alex. Dickson, 
1915) — A magnificent Rose. Its delicate solid 
maize-straw color with delicate carmine on back 
of petals make it an outstanding Rose. Gold 
medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. ARCHIE GRAY (Hugh Dickson, 1914)—Flow¬ 
ers large and exquisitely formed and borne in 
great profusion. Buds long and pointed. Color 
deep creamy-yellow opening to clear light canary- 
yellow. Gold medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. FRANKLIN DENNISON (McGredy, 1915) — 
Very large, full, well formed flowers. Color por¬ 
celain-white, veined primrose-yellow, deepening 
to ochre at the base of the petals. Strong, vig¬ 
orous grower, producing its immense flowers in 
the greatest profusion. 
MRS. GEORGE GORDON (Hugh Dickson, 1915)— 
Produces its flowers in the greatest profusion. 
Very large and full. Exquisitely formed with 
high pointed center. Bright rosy-pink, flushed 
silvery-pink at edges of petals,, base of petals 
yellowish-pink. Extra. 
MRS. GEORGE NORWOOD (Hicks, 1914)—Bright 
rich pink, beautifully veined with a tint of yellow 
J at the base. Large flowers of splendid lasting 
qualities. Highly perfumed. 
MRS. HUGH DICKSON (Hugh Dickson, 1915)—A 
grand Rose for any purpose. Deep cream with a 
heavy suffusion of orange and apricot, delightful 
perfume, one of the most beautiful and useful 
Roses. S. G. medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. JAMES LYNAS (Hugh Dickson, 1914)—Flow¬ 
ers very large and full, produced freely and con¬ 
tinuously. Color pearly-pink at the base of the 
petals, flushed delicate rose, rosy-peach at the 
edges and on the reverse of petals. One of the 
most valuable garden Roses of recent years. Par 
excellence. Gold medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. MACKELLAR (Alex. Dickson, 1915)—The 
glorious blooms make this an imposing Rose. A 
deep citron or delicate pure canary color. As the 
large blooms gracefully expand the guard petals 
charmingly reflex and become pearly primrose- 
white of great decorative beauty. Award of 
merit (unanimous), R. H. S., London.
