% ? ROSE CREATIONS PROM THE 
FAMOUS HOUSE OF McGREDY IN IRELAND 
For four years we have had the exclusive rights of testing and distributing the famous Irish 
Roses from the McGredys. Throughout the Rose-world the words, McGredy and Roses, are 
synonymous. No one house has contributed more to the embellishment of our gardens. We will 
always remember the epoch-making favorites, Lady Alice Stanley, Mrs. Wakefield Christie-Miller 
(1909), Mrs. Henry Morse (1919), as well as the later Margaret McGredy, Mrs. Sam McGredy, 
and others. McGredy’s Roses are distinguished by their perfection of form, handsome, vigorous 
foliage, and strong, robust plants. From the more recent introductions of this great Rose- 
hybridizing establishment, we have selected the following varieties which we can recommend 
confidently to American Rose-lovers. 
McGREDY’S SUNSET 
(McGredy, Ii-eland) 
Plant Patent applied for 
As glorious as a summer sunset. 
The petals are a clear buttercup- 
yellow, tipped orange on the out¬ 
side, and chrome-yellow, flushed 
with scarlet on the inside. As the 
bloom expands the color is in¬ 
tensified and it is at its best when 
fully opened. Flowers are of 
medium size, full and shapely, and 
for a while the petals remain 
symmetrically curled like a camel¬ 
lia. They are freely borne on a 
magnificent bush with dark green 
foliage. When cut, its fragrance 
soon suffuses throughout the room 
and leaves an unmistakable im¬ 
pression of its freshness. Very 
sun-resistant. Excellent in hot 
weather. An outstanding Rose 
and one much commented on in 
our garden. Certain to please 
garden lovers everywhere. Cer¬
