Autumn —In color, a gorgeous combination of cerise, scarlet and 
yellow. The firm compact bud of medium size is bright golden 
yellow, stained crimson without and deepening to scarlet-orange in 
the center. They open to semi-double splendidly shaped flowers of 
glorious crimson and gold with stiff petals. 
Betty Uprichard —Coppery red buds, opening to semi-double flowers 
of above average size; brilliant orange carmine on outer surface of 
petals, showing light salmon reflexes; spicy fragrance. Strong grow¬ 
ing, persistent blooming and healthy. 
Briarcliff —A sport from Columbia, retaining all the good qualities 
of its parent; color more brilliant than Columbia, being a true rose 
pink without any shadings whatever. Long pointed bud. 
Edith Nellie Perkins —A Rose of outstanding merit, vigorous in 
growth and free flowering. Long, pointed hud; flower of good size, 
long lasting and fragrant, double; outside of petals orient-red 
shaded cerise-orange; inside salmon-pink. 
Etoile de Hollande —Brilliant red blooms of magnificent 
size, perfect in half open state, showing clean, attractive 
centers when fully open; petals enormous; very fragrant. 
Plants branching; particularly free flowering and healthy. 
Frau Karl Druschki —Pure snow white, long pointed buds, 
large full flowers. Perpetual type. 
Golden Rapture —A splendid new yellow Rose of upright 
growth. The pure yellow buds are of ideal form. Beauti¬ 
ful, large, double flowers which last without fading. A 
splendid variety for cutting and for bedding. Price: 85$ 
each, $9.00 per dozen. 
Gruss An Teplitz —Brightest scarlet crimson; splendid 
Rose for massing. 
Joanna Hill —Clear yellow deepening in the center of the 
flower to a bright yellow. 
Madame Jules Bouche —One of the finest garden Roses in 
the white section; of splendid form, and a very strong 
grower. 
Miss Rowena Thom —It is almost impossible to give a true 
color description of this Rose. It seems as if all the shades 
of a desert sunset have been caught in all their splendor 
and held by this beautiful Rose. The deep center glows 
with vivid Oriental red, shading to rose, as the bud ex¬ 
pands and gradually passing to delicate mauve. 
Mrs. Erskine P. Thom —A strong, healthy grower, equal 
in strength to the Radiance type of Rose. Beautiful, dark 
bronzy green, disease resistant foliage. Rich lemon yellow 
flowers, very sweetly scented and a very free flowering 
variety. 
Dickson’s Centennial 
{See page twenty-five) 
Mrs. Pierre S. du Pont —Medium sized long-pointed bud 
of a reddish gold opening to a semi-double, cupped, very 
lasting fragrant flower of a deep golden yellow. The plant 
is of strong vigorous compact growth. A profuse and con¬ 
tinuous bloomer. 
Pink Dawn —An exceptionally charming Rose of highest 
merit, with an abundance of perfectly formed, full double 
flowers of a deep rose color, opening to lovely pink blooms, 
tinted with orange at the base of the petals. 
President Hoover —This is a glorious Rose, wonderfully 
free in the easy manner in which it grows and charming in 
its color arrangement, which is a splendid combination of 
cerise oink, flame, scarlet and yellow, and this combination 
gives the most dazzling color effect ever seen in any Rose. 
It is one of the most cheerful Roses imaginable. 
Radiance —A splendid and popular Rose, deep pink in 
color. Will produce 3 foot breaks without pinching; al¬ 
most mildew proof, and a wonderfully fine Rose to handle. 
Red Radiance —A duplicate of its parent in every respect 
save color, which is a brilliant red; very free flowering in 
habit and vigorous in growth. A wonderful variety in 
every way and a welcome addition. 
Rapture —A much improved sport of Mme. Butterfly. The 
color is an exquisite salmon shade, deeper than the very 
best Butterfly, with the same golden flush at the base of 
the petals. As a sport of Butterfly, Rapture shows all its 
good characteristics with larger foliage and a much 
heavier growth. 
Talisman —A seedling of Ophelia and Souv. de Claudius 
Pernet. “Like a choice, rare cameo, this seedling Rose 
stands out in rich and distinctive relief against any back¬ 
ground.” Talisman is already so well-known that it needs 
no further comment.
