HYBRID TEA ROSES— Continued 
Mrs. Pierre S. du Pont. Unquestionably the 
most satisfactory yellow Rose for the garden. 
Long-pointed, rich reddish gold buds, opening 
to 40-petaled flowers of the same color which 
fade very little. It has a delightful spicy fra¬ 
grance. Plants are of medium height, very bushy 
producing an increasing crop of bloom. Perfect 
for cutting or garden decoration. 
National Flower Guild. Large, bright red flow¬ 
ers produced on a strong growing bush. 
Ophelia. One of the ancestors of many of our best 
garden Roses. The attractive pink buds open 
to nicely formed flowers of salmon flesh, shaded 
light yellow at the bases of the petals, borne 
singly on long, strong stems. Medium size 
plants with large, leathery foliage. Very few 
thorns. 
President Herbert Hoover. One of the most 
attractive and dependable garden Roses we 
have. The shapely buds open to high-centered 
flowers ol scarlet, yellow, cerise pink, and flame, 
of rather loose form when fully mature; deli¬ 
ciously fragrant. The extra tall plants with good 
foliage produce these lovely flowers on stems 
from to 2 ft. in length. 
Radiance. The standard pink Rose for many 
years. Radiance is one of the easiest to grow, 
having vigorous plants with splendid foliage 
and producing a quantity of large, double (25 
petals) flowers of two-toned pink. Wonderful 
fragrance.

Ophelia type of flower, with long buds opening 
to beautifully formed blooms of deep pink with 
yellow shading at the bases of the petals. Flowers 
are produced singly on long stems. Plants

with the same delightful fragrance, large, cupped 
flowers ol 25 to 30 petals; strong, healthy plant. 
An easy Rose to grow. 
Rev. F. Page-Roberts. A glorious flower of buff 
yellow with red shadings, much more beautiful 
than this description sounds. It has splendid 
form, is fully double, and has a delicious Apple 
fragrance. Plants are low growing, with leathery 
bronze green foliage. Requires care to get 
started well.

grant. Vigorous, compact plants.

color will be a light orange yellow. They are pro¬ 
duced singly on long stems, making a splendid 
flower for cutting. Plants are of average growth.

den Roses and a very popular variety. Flowers

as the blooms come singly on long stems and 
they are excellent keepers. It has wonderful 
fragrance. Upright plants with distinct pale
