HILLOCK 
(V.S. Hillock, 1934.) Patent No. 185. A 
majestic pink Rose of sixty petals having 
good form in all stages of development. 
Bi-colored pink with gold base; petals 
deep rose-pink on the reverse, pearl-pink 
to silver-pink on the inside. A seedling 
from Golden Dawn whose foliage it fav¬ 
ors. An excellent robust bush; rivals Rad¬ 
iance in growth and production. Many 
new sensational Roses burst upon the 
market with a great fanfare and soon dis¬ 
appear. They may have color but are 
discarded because they lack the founda¬ 
tion of a robust plant. V. S. Hillock has 
spent years in developing a Rose which 
will not fail in this respect. The huge 
peony-like flowers held erect on long 
stems are graced with ample and even 
better foliage than that of its Australian 
parent. The fading flowers take on new 
beauty as the gold from the base and the 
deeper color on the reverse of the petals 
mirror through the whole flower. We 
recommend this Rose. We know that it 
will flourish under conditions which hurt 
some of the old favorites. $1.00 each. 
LOS ANGELES. One of the loveliest Roses ever produc¬ 
ed—unfading luminous coral-pink, toned with copper 
and shaded with gold. One of California's children 
which does exceptionally well in its home state. A pro¬ 
lific producer of deliciously fragrant flowers. Heavy 
pruning is disastrous to this variety. 50 cts. each, 
MME. BUTTERFLY. An Ophelia sport—a marked im¬ 
provement. Fine light pink buds and flowers of ex¬ 
quisite shape, tinted with gold near base of petals. 
Richly perfumed. Greenhouse foliage grown out-of- 
doors; very few thorns. 50 cts. each. 
MME. COCHET-COCHET. Patent No. 129. Long-pointed, 
coppery pink buds with a decided orange flush. These 
open to large flowers in which the orange fades to
