THE GOOD & REESE CO/S WHOLESALE TRADE LIST. 
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES, Newer Varieties 
The first Hybrid Perpetuais were grown from crosses between Hybrid China and Tea Scented Roses wittV Gailica and Bour¬ 
bon Roses. This is a beautiful class and cannot be too highly recommended, including, as it does, many of the hardiest early 
and late flowering kinds, and nearly all of the superb rich crimson red and pink varieties which make such pleasing contrasts to 
the yellow and white Teas. These are hardy. 
DUCHESS OF SUTHERLAND (Alex. Dickson, 1912.)—A strik- 
in^;ly distinct and beautiful Rose of decided merit. Tlie 
blooms are freely produced. Larne, full and conical. The 
petals are unusually larne, massive, smooth and erect, 
bulldinn up a flower which is a whorl of delinht and pos- 
sessiiiK a sweet briar perfume. The color is certainly novel 
delicate warm rose-pink, with lemon shading on the 
white base; extra fine. • 
GEORGE DICKSON (Alex. Dickson, 1912.)—The introducers of 
this new Rose say: “This is tlie best Rose ever raised by 
us. We make this statement advisedly and with a full 
sense of our responsibility. The Rose is named after the se¬ 
nior member of our firm, who is now approacliing his 
eightieth birthday. We are quite satisfied tiiat within two 
years George Dickson will be tlie most popular exhibition 
Rose In existence. A.s near as we can describe it, the color 
is a velvety-black crimson, the back of the petal being 
heavily veined with deep pure crimson-maroon. The petals 
are of splendid shape: of magnificent substance; delight¬ 
fully smooth, and built to make the form of fliiwer perfec¬ 
tion. We have regularly had blooms of the highest exhi¬ 
bition standard (lulte five Inches across. It has wonderful 
la.sting qualities, not only as to the retention of its color, 
but also in its shape and freshness. Awarded the gold 
medal of the National Rose Society of England, besides many 
other first awards at various shows in England and Ire¬ 
land." 
JOSEPH HENSLOW (Alex. Dickson, 1912.)—Growth vigorous 
and erect, with handsome foliage. Flowers large, full and 
of perfect form, (^)lor, a delightful orange-crimson; of 
great brilliancy; petals broad, round and of great sub¬ 
stance : very sweetly scented. A flue Rose. 
KING GEORGE V (Hugh Dickson, 1912.)—What Mr. Dickson 
himself says of this Rose: “The flower is very large and 
very full, opening freely; beautifully shaped; much resem¬ 
bling ‘Madame Jules Gravereuux’ in build of tlower and 
petal. The petals are very abundant and nicely arranged. 
The color Is quite unique amongst Hybrid Teas, being rich 
blackish-crimson, with deep velvety-violet flush, a striking 
and brilliant color, not burning in the sun nor turning 
blue, as uso many of our very dark Roses do. It is very 
free flowering and perpetual, and delights in a warm sun 
The perfume is strong and very pleasing. This is one of 
the finest novelties which we have ever sent out and has 
elicited univer.sal admiration wherever shown. Awarded the 
gold medal of the Festival of r.mpire. Crystal Falace, Lon¬ 
don, June 2yth, 1911." With us tins Rose is a pure Hybrid 
I’erpetual. 
PINK FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI or GEORGE ARENDS (Hln- 
ner, 1910.) — This is the wonderful “I’ink Dru.schki." Do 
not confound it with the much inferior sort “Heinrich 
Munch," which is being offered in some (luarters as “Fink 
Druschki." This Rose we predict will have as large a fol¬ 
lowing and he as widely planted in a very few years as the 
now famous “White Druschki." We have looked It over in 
the field and grown it in pots for the market, and we abso¬ 
lutely cannot detect a single fault in it or about It. The 
growth and make-up of the plants is superb, while the 
delicate pink color is unapproachable. Thank you, Mr. 
Hlnner. You have enriched our Rose collection for all 
time. You know what some of you missed by delaying so 
long in getting acquainted with “Frau Karl Druschki." 
Do not repeat this mistake with “George Arends." 
SACHENGRUSS (Hoyer and Klemm, 1912.)—Delicate tender 
flesh, center deepening to a delightful Carnation-pink with 
reflex of chamois. 
Conrad Ferdinand Meyer.

CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER (Froebel, 1900.)—This

petual you have ever known. This is a grand Rose, a 
vigorous grower, and free bloomer; flowers large, per¬ 
fectly double, cup-shaped. Color deep, bright vivid, in¬ 
tense pink, with the penetrating fragrance of the old 
June Roses. Wo have grown this Rose for four years, In 
sections of the country from Canada to the Gulf, and 
we have no hesitancy in saying after the most thorough 
and rigid test that a Ro.se can be put to that this Rose 
is in every respect just what we claim for it. That Is, 
the very best all around Rose ever introduced by any¬ 
one, and to this we make not a single exception. It 
grows vigorously, it blooms freely, is absolutely hardy, 
flowers of the largest size; the form is perfect, the col¬ 
oring unequaled and the fragrance delicious. Can you 
ask more?
