JULIEN POTIN. Sometimes called “Golden 
Pernet.’’ Large size, pointed, clear yellow buds 
open to a splendid golden yellow bloom which 
holds its color well. Very fragrant. 
KAISERIN AUGUSTE VIKTORIA. A beau¬ 
tiful rose with elegant large pointed buds and 
very full double flowers, delicate creamy white, 
deliciously fragrant. The plant is a strong 
healthy grower and constant bloomer. The flow¬ 
ers are on long stiff stems, with rich, glossy 
foliage. 
LADY HILLINGDON. Long, slender buds of 
intense deep golden yellow; profuse bloomer. 
Just about our hardiest yellow rose. 
LUXEMBURG. The blending of colors in bud 
and bloom make this a most beautiful and at¬ 
tractive rose. Its color is coral red, shaded 
chrome yellow, opening to a large flower of 
shrimp pink, shaded coppery orange. Free and 
constant bloomer, strong grower. 
MADAME BUTTERFLY. A glorified sport t-f 
Ophelia with all the colors of Ophelia intensified 
making it a harmony of bright pink, apricot and 
gold. The buds are a lovely shade of indiaii red, 
yellow at the base. 
MAMAN COCHET. Huge, long pointed flow¬ 
ers double to the center and deliciously fragrant, 
pale pink. One of the best old Tea Roses, es¬ 
pecially adapted to the South. 
MAMAN COCHET, WHITE. Sport of Maman 
Cochet, with creamy white flowers, having edges 
flushed rose. 
MARGARET McGREDY. Buds and flowers very 
large and double. The color is a brilliant blaze 
of Oriental-red passing as the bloom ages to a 
carmine-rose. Fine healthy foliage and strong 
growth make this rose a wonderful bedding rose. 
MISS ROWENA THOM. A cross between those 
two popular roses. Radiance and Los Angeles, 
with enormous, very double flowers of rose pink. 
Extremely vigorous growth. 
MRS. AARON WARD. Strong, vigorous, but 
compact growth. Tawny, golden buff flowers 
produced all summer. 
MRS. CHAS. BELL (Shell Pink Radiance). A 
superb sport of the famous Radiance; equal in 
every respect, but distinct in color. The shell- 
pink diffused with salmon gives it a pearly 
opalescence. 
MRS. E. P. THOM. A long pointed bud with 
well shaped open flowers of deep yellow. A mass 
of golden-yellow throughout the blooming period. 
This rose is considered much finer than Souvenir 
de Claudius Pernet being a stronger grower and 
better open bloom. 
MRS. LOVELL SWISHER. Long shapely buds 
and magnificent flowers of salmon-pink deepen¬ 
ing toward the center. Delightfully tea-scented. 
MRS. PIERRE S. DU PONT. Winner of more 
Gold medals for outdoor blooms than any other 
rose ever grown. The bud is long-pointed, rich 
yellow gold and it holds its color well until 
the end. Foliage is very ornamental, healthy 
and extremely disease-resistant. A most con¬ 
tinuous bloomer. We consider this the finest 
clear yellow rose ever introduced. 
MRS. W. C. MILLER. A stocky, upright grow¬ 
er. Color striking rose with light pink bloom. 
Continuous bloomer. 
NATIONAL FLOWER GUILD. Crimson. Great 
big bushy plants with large, drooping foliage 
and 5-inch, bright red flowers with 40 petals. A 
modern rose in every way, that keeps blooming 
in our rose garden during hot summer days when 
practically all other roses are resting after their 
big June effort. 
PRES. HERBERT HOOVER. The rose sensa¬ 
tion of the past few years. Maroon, orange and 
gold, long pointed buds, enormous flowers, very 
fragrant, constant bloomer. One of the very best 
new roses. 
PRISCILLA. A large, double, pale pink flower 
with darker veins. Excellent rose in the south. 
RADIANCE. Brilliant rose-pink buds, open¬ 
ing to well formed, shining, globular flowers with 
lighter tints on reverse of petal; very fragrant. 
One of the very hardiest growing and profuse 
bloomers of all the roses. 
RAPTURE. Much like Madame Butterfly in 
growth and shape of bloom, but the color is 
deeper and more brilliant. Yellow, pink and 
coral on a cream background. Nearly thornless 
long stems makes Rapture an ideal cut rose. 
RED RADIANCE. A sport of Radiance, equal 
in every way except for its color which is a deep 
rose red. 
SENSATION. Splendid, large, crimson scarlet, 
perfect bud as well as in the fully developed, 
sweetly scented, double flower. Vigorous grower. 
SOUVENIR DE CLAUDIUS PERNET. The 
ever popular Pernet rose. Deep lemon-yellow 
in color. Has perfectly formed buds for cutting. 
The open flower is not so tine as could be ex¬ 
pected from such grand buds. Only moderate 
grower. 
SUNBURST. Long pointed buds on very long 
stems. Color, golden orange and golden yellow, 
lighter at the edges of the petals. 
SYRACUSE. Bright crimson flowers full of 
wavy petals, outer petals recurring. Open bloom 
is very double. Borne singly on good stems by 
tall, vigorous bushy plants of healthy foliage. 
Fine for cutting. 
TALISMAN. Brilliant orange-red buds open 
to a large fragrant high pointed bloom of gold¬ 
en yellow stained with copper-red and orange- 
rose. The most popular rose of the last few 
years with every characteristic so good that it 
has deserved its popularity. 
WILLOMERE. Coral-red buds opening to 
large full blooms of shrimp pink with carmine 
pink shadings. Buds long, pointed and open 
bloom full. Strong, healthy growers. A superb 
rose. 
S^ybrid (perpetual ddpses

great burst of bloom in the spring and then again in the fall. Price: First Gra.de

AMERICAN BEAUTY. Very large blooms of 
rosy-carmine. Intensely rich with damask per¬ 
fume. 
FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI. (White American 
Beauty). A hardy, vigorous grower, with bright 
green leaves, splendid long buds, and magnifl- 
cent, snow-white blooms with saucer-shaped pet¬ 
als; rightly named. 
JOHN RUSSELL. Handsome, brilliant red 
rose; a rich, velvety crimson of a very large 
exhibition type, beautiful both in bud as well as 
in the fully expanded double flowers.

very double and full; finely scented and a strong 
grower.
