SERIES A 
Varieties originated at Cherry Hill 
The varieties offered here are the result of nearly half 
a century of selection of seedlings. The plants, as they 
flower, are selected and re-selected and compared with the 
best named varieties from all over the world. These list¬ 
ed have been chosen from hundreds of thousands of seed¬ 
lings. 
A. P. Saunders (1919), large flesh-pink flowers, shaded to 
8.6 nearly white in the center, outer petals sometimes 
marked carmine. The long petals unfold from a 
slowly loosening ball in the center until they finally 
make a rose-form flower. Slightly fragrant. Late. 
L. D. |2. 1 yr. $3.

8.7 tinted yellow, and center petals clear white inter¬

8.6 gives a very bright appearance in the garden. Some 
blooms will have a center of golden stamens, while 
well established plants often produce full, double

The tall, strong stems, with excellent foliage, make 
this a very attractive variety for the garden. L. D.

9.1 pink with broad rounded petals, with occasional

liage. Fragrant. Late. This neeeds a year or two 
to become established, to give the best flowers. L. D.

8.9 dark green foliage. A double row of broad, rounded 
petals of deep shell-pink surround a mass of golden
