THE GOOD cf- REESE COMPANY WHOLESALE TRADE LIST 
HYBRID TEA ROSES-Continued 
FLORENCE FORRESTER (McGredy, 1914)—Clear snow-white 
with a lemon tinge; as the flowers age they become a pure 
white, the blooms are even larger than Paul Neyron. Its 
habit is absolutely perfect, and the freedom with which it 
flowers is marvelous. We consider this Rose the grandest of 
all whites for bedding. For size and substance has no equal 
among Hybrid Teas. Is very sweetly perfumed. Gold medal, 
National Rose Society. 
FRANCIS SCOTT KEY (Cook, 1914)—An American seedling, 
raised by John Cook. It is a heavy double Rose of great 
substance. In color, red. It shows good growing character¬ 
istics and is undoubtedly 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 recom¬ 
mendation. 
FRAU MATH. NOEHL CWelter, 1914)—Lemon-yellow, large 
full fine form; fragant. Buds long and pointed. Very 
floriferous. 
FREIFRAU VONDER G0LT2 (Lambert, 1913)—Rosy-salmon; 
large, full and fragrant. 
Florence Forrester. 
6. AMEDEE HAMMOND (Alex. Dickson. 1915)—The color is 
cadmium or deep apricot egg yolk, shading 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. 
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 endless profusion. 
Deep orange-yellow and heavily veined with reddish copper, 
the most charming and gorgeous coloring which has yet 
been introduced. The most striking Rose in existence. 
Gold medal, N. R. S. 
HADLEY (Montgomery Co., 1914)-—Hadley is a development 
from a line of seedlings raised by Alex. Montgomery, Jr., 
the varieties used in this development being Liberty, Gen¬ 
eral 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 fra¬ 
grance 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-tlie- 
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. Alto¬ 
gether a desirable Rose. 
HOOSIER BEAUTY (Dorner, 1915)—We use description 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, texture like velvet. In color, glowing crimson-scar¬ 
let, 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 established 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 produces, naturally, 
stems two to three feet in length; each plant keeps up a 
very close succession o_' 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 re¬ 
sponse to questions asked us by intending purchasers." We 
believe this Rose will make its mark as a garden variety. 
H. V. MACH IN. (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. It. 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 acquisition to Roses of its color. 
IONA HERDMAN (McGredy, 1914)—A pure, clear, orange 
flame, the greatest lift in color yet attained in Roses, sur¬ 
passing Rayon d'Or in clearness and brightness. Without 
question the most beautiful yellow decorative Rose in ex¬ 
istence and a Rose that must be seen in order to grasp its 
wonderful coloring. The most striking novelty yet raised; 
it is sweetly scented. Very free-flowering, and of beautiful 
shape and form. Gold medal, N. R. S. 
IRISH FIRE FLAME (Alex. Dickson, 1913)—One of Alex. 
Dickson's single Roses that is a good forcer. It makes beau¬ 
tiful buds that remain in shape a long time, having great 
substance. It comes with long stems, and with its unique 
color, it forms a combination that at once places it in the 
front rank of forcing Roses. The color is old gold or cop¬ 
pery-yellow, flamed with ruddy-crimson. Certainly a most 
glorious Rose. 
JANET (Alex Dickson, 1915)—A seductive Rose of greatest 
charm, virtually a bush form of “Gloire de Dijon." In the 
young stage its color is a delicate egg yolk silky salmony 
flesh, or golden ochre on very delicate pearly champagne- 
biscuit fawn. A greatly-to-be-desired-in-every-garden Rose. 
The nursery rows of this Rose are festooned or garlanded 
with bloom. 
JOSEPHINE (W. Paul & Son, 1914)—Rosy-flesh, base of 
petals salmon-yellow, large and full, of fine shape; fine 
both for exhibition and decorative purposes. 
KILLARNEY BRILLIANT (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—The intro¬ 
ducers are to be congratulated sixteen years after the ad¬ 
vent 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 conical form and 'carried 
erect; growth vigorous. Extra fine. 
LADY DUNLEATH (Alex. Dickson, 1913)—A Rose with long, 
pointed, chaste petals, an intermingling of deep ivory, 
creamy-white, with egg-yolk yellow zoned petals of extreme 
beauty. Intense but delicately and deliciously Persian tea 
fragrance. Especially valuable for garden decoration, being 
a marvelously free and continuous bloomer. 
LADY GREENALL (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—Intense saffron- 
orange, heavily zoned and overspread on deep creamy-white; 
reflex of petals faintly suffused delicate shell-pink, large, 
perfectly finished, very floriferous, strongly tea perfumed. 
A truly magnificent Rose. 
LADY MARY ^WARD (McGredy, 1913)—Color rich orange, 
shaded deeper apricot-orange, with a decided metallic 
veneering; a most remarkable variety, and the greatest nov¬ 
elty in’color yet seen in Roses. A bud of this Rose, on ac¬ 
count of its wonderful Color, would be one of the sights of 
any Rose garden. Lady Mary Ward is bound to become a 
great favorite. Gold medal, N. R. S. 
LEONIE LAMBERT (Lambert, 1914)—Silvery-rose, shaded 
yellowish-rose and rosy flesh towards the center. Very large 
and sweetly scented. 
MADAME BARDOU JOB (Dubrieul, 1914)—Chrome-yellow 
and canary citron-yellow, large, full and cupped form. Very 
free flowering and very distinct. 
MADAME THEODORE DELACOURT (Pernet Ducher, 1914) — 
Reddish-salmon shaded clear yellow; large flowers of 
globular form; a rare color.
