Hillenmeyer Tried and Tested Roses 
There are more than 2000 Roses in general culti¬ 
vation and to list any large percentage of these would 
be out of the question. We have, therefore, tried and

represents the "Cream of the Crop/' Plant any of 
them with confidence.

Pink 
Betty Uprichard. H.T. Two-color, copper-red buds, opening into semi¬ 
double, salmon-pink blooms. A good bloomer and an outstanding variety. 
Dame Edith Helen. H.T. One of the largest and most perfectly shaped pink 
Roses known. Flowers uniformly well shaped. Has attracted unstinted 
praise. The most perfumed of all pink Roses. 
Edith Nellie Perkins. H.T. One of the best. Long pointed buds of cream, 
orange, and pink, overspread with gold flush. Very prolific flowering; 
strong grower. Foliage healthy. 
Editor McFarland. Deep pink. We think this the finest pink garden Rose 
grown today. Its pointed buds on nice long cutting stems last longer and 
retain their form wonderfully well. A Rose that should be in every garden. 
Mrs. Charles Bell. H.T. Famous salmon-pink sport of Radiance, with all its 
good qualities. No other Rose has just the same lovely color. 
Radiance. H.T. This is a most reliable Rose. It has no serious faults and 
is the best variety for this section. Brilliant rose-pink buds opening into 
well-formed blooms with silver tints on reverse of the petals. Blossoms 
are fragrant and plant makes vigorous growth. Our most outstanding 
reliable Rose. 
Red 
E. G. Hill. H.T. A great red Rose. Massive blooms of deep crimson and 
scarlet, velvety on inside. Splendid for cutting. Foliage unusually healthy. 
Of vigorous habit. 
Etoile de Hollande. H.T. It is said that this is the best red Hybrid Tea. 
Its gigantic flowers of velvety crimson color hold up remarkably well, 
getting lighter in shade instead of "bluing" with age. Thrives everywhere 
and produces a fine lot of blooms throughout the season. 
Red Radiance. H.T. Read the description of Radiance and apply the good 
things said of it to this variety, except the color, which is a deep rose- 
red. Blooms until frost and is the best all-round red Rose in existence. 
Two-Tone 
Candesa de Sastago. Vivid colorings of gold, copper, and yellow. This 
matchless Spanish novelty causes everyone to stop and admire it. Healthy 
and upright in growth. Admired by all. 
Duquesa de Penaranda. Coppery apricot. A Spanish beauty with long- 
pointed buds which open into luminous shades defying description. A won¬ 
derful Rose. 
President Herbert Hoover. H.T. A most popular Rose. It is maroon, orange, 
and gold, rioting in a most contrasting fashion. Long, pointed buds; 
rigid stems. A fine garden Rose, blooming well in the autumn. By far 
the best of its color, and superior to Talisman as an outdoor Rose. 
Talisman. H.T. Multi-colored. Glorious combination of orange, yellow, and 
rose-red. The fragrant flowers are much more highly colored in autumn. 
White 
Caledonia. H.T. Purest white, perfectly formed buds on strong stems, open¬ 
ing to large flowers that retain their form until petals fall. No white 
Rose can surpass this perfect variety. 
Edith Krause. Pure white, long buds and large double blooms on strong 
stems. A tall grower with dark, healthy foliage. 
Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria. H.T. Well-formed, cream-colored buds opening 
into white flowers. Free blooming; hardy. 
Yellow 
Golden Dawn. H.T. Large, straw-yellow buds opening to pale lemon-yellow, 
double flowers, with slight old rose markings. Rarely out of bloom. Bronzy 
foliage, free of disease. 
Mrs. E. P. Thom. H.T. Superior yellow garden Rose. The fine long buds 
are perfectly shaped. Flowers rich lemon-yellow. Very vigorous and a 
constant bloomer. 
Mrs. Pierre S. du Pont. H.T. Winner of more medals than any other out¬ 
door Rose. Long, pointed, rich red-gold buds, opening to well-formed 
blossoms that hold long. Foliage ornamental, healthy, and disease- 
resistant. 
Soeur Therese. Yellow. Long pointed buds of chrome-yellow with markings 
of carmine. The open flower is rich Daffodil-yellow. Blooms freely on 
long cutting stems. One of the finest yellow Roses of recent introduction.
