BUSH ROSES 
REDS 
Ami Quinard. HT. Buds are very dark, opening 
to a fragrant flower of velvety maroon with sott 
black luster. Strong grower and free blooming. 
Cynthia. HT. A striking Rose with long-pointed 
buds open to beautiful flowers of rich oriental red. 
A prolific bloomer and fine for cut-flowers. 
E. G. Hill. I mmense flowers of lasting, dazzling 
scarlet, never fading or turning blue, but actually 
becoming deeper red as it opens. Borne on long 
stems, and are deliciously fragrant. There are few 
red roses which will rival E. G. Hill, for it is truly 
a magnificent rose. 
Etoile de Hollande. This magnificent red rose is 
ranked among the first three of its color by every¬ 
one who knows roses, and many will place it first. 
Perfect buds are medium size, opening Beautifully 
and cleanly into glorious flowers with incomparable 
fragrance. Bush is strong, free branching, healthy. 
Actually has no serious fault. You can pay fancy 
prices for Patented Red Roses and get no finer 
results. 
Margaret McGredy. A brilliantly colored master¬ 
piece of orange-scarlet or brick-red. Short, stout 
buds, opening to large, full, magnificent flowers, on 
a beautiful heavily foliaged, well branched bush. 
Red Radiance. Similar in growth to Pink Radi¬ 
ance, but has big, bold cerise-red flowers which are 
borne on long heavy stems. Most sweetly damask 
scented. Hardy. 
Sensation. All summer it produces its large, frag¬ 
rant flowers of deep red on strong stems. A depend¬ 
able rose. 
Victoria Harrington. A magnificent bud and 
flower of a uniform shade of velvety dark red, with 
a peculiar brick-red undertone. The color does not 
fade in the hottest sun and remains the same until 
the petals drop. The petals are beautifully reflexed, 
stems long and stiff, foliage splendid on tall willowy 
plant, fragrance is pleasant. 50c each. 
BUSH ROSES 
PINK SHADES 
Dame Edith Helen. H. T. Free flowering strawber¬ 
ries and cream pink. Perfectly formed flower. Fine 
to cut. 
Kathrine Kordes. This splendid Rose has a lovely 
form, large size, and delicate fruity fragrance, deep 
pink blooms, edged with silver, long stems and ideal 
buds make it a perfect cutting rose. 
Isobel. Largest of the single Roses. Long buds are 
orange-carmine fading to a clear coral-pink in the sun 
when open. Growth tall, the flowers with very long 
stems. No Rose garden is complete without this 
beautiful single Rose. 
J. Otto Thilow. Buds of this variety have about 
the most perfect form of any rose grown and open 
into a full lasting flower. Rose-pink, similar to Rose 
Marie, but flowers larger and on stiffer stems. 
Picture. Rated one of the very finest pink Roses. 
Plant is vigorous and produces one continuous burst 
of bloom through the season, every bud is perfectly 
formed. The pink color has warm undertones of sal¬ 
mon. The flowers a sweet Tea fragrance. 50c each. 
Rapture. H.T. Improved sport of Mme. Butterfly, 
with beautiful mildew-proof foliage. Pointed bud; 
deep salmon with bright golden suffusion. Free 
grower. 
WHITE 
McGredy’s Ivory. HT. Creamy ivory-white, turn¬ 
ing' to clear white as they open; occasionally has a 
faint pink flush in the center in cool weather. The 
buds are as perfect as Roses can be; flowers possess 
a delicate Damask perfume. 
BUSH ROSES 
YELLOW AND ORANGE 
Golden Emblem. The lovely long buds of golden 
yellow are beautifully tinted with crimson on the 
outer petals. Opens to a full golden yellow flower. 
The glossy green foliage is particularly fine, does 
not mildew, and the buds are borne on long stiff 
stems. 
Golden Rapture. Produces perfectly formed bright 
yellow buds, a glowing shining rich yellow without 
any shadings, does not fade. Has pleasant fragrance. 
Growth is medium. 50c each. 
Mrs. Erskine P. Thom. This is the most valuable 
yellow rose for the garden. The nicely shaped buds 
and well shaped open flowers are bright canary- 
yellow without other shadings, the strong growing, 
vigorous bush is lavish with the blooms. We know 
of no other yellow rose that we would prefer to 
recommend ahead of it. 
Mrs. Pierre S. Dupont. H.T. Most profusely bloom¬ 
ing yellow rose grown. Buds small but exquisitely 
formed, of a dark orange-yellow that holds well. 
Bushes compact; dark green, glossy, mildew-resis¬ 
tant foliage. 
BUSH ROSES 
Multi-Colors 
Autumn. Full handsome buds are a superb burnt- 
orange, the opening flowers heavily suffused with 
russet-brown and bronzy red all over-laid on a 
background of rich yellow in a color combination 
of glorious autumnal foliage. Deliciously fragrant. 
Condesa de Sastago. Its startling color combina¬ 
tion is undoubtedly unique. The large, cup-shaped 
flowers, fairly double and yet not too heavy, are 
distinctly bi-colored, glowing orange-scarlet on the 
inside of the petals and an intensely bright yellow 
on the outside. The tall slender plants are robust, 
and the flowers possess a sweet fragrance. 
Hinrich Gaede. Without doubt one of the best 
roses introduced in recent years. Rosy copper with 
brilliant orange tones which hold until the last petal 
drops. Buds extra large, of good form, borne singly 
on long strong stems. Blooms freely and the dark 
glistening foliage is very resistant to mildew. You 
cannot pass this rose without exclaiming over its 
unusual beauty. 
Talisman. A vividly colored rose justifies all of 
the fine things that have been said about it. The 
brilliant coloring is a mixture of orange-scarlet and 
golden yellow in irregular proportions. Very double, 
exquisitely shaped, borne on long stems, exceed¬ 
ingly sweet scented. 
POLYANTHA ROSES 
EVER-BLOOMING BABY ROSES 
Cameo. New shell pink and salmon, with a glow 
of gold; continuous bloom. 
Cecile Brunner. The miniature flowers of this old 
favorite, rose pink shaded salmon, fill a niche no 
other Rose can occupy. A strong grower too, and 
always in bloom. 
Golden Salmon. An everblooming spot of color. 
Like Gloria Mundie but does not hold color so well 
in full sun. 
Gloria Mundi. The little double flowers, like baby 
pompon chrysanthemums, have the brightest and 
most striking color in the Baby Roses — brilliant, 
luminous, orange-scarlet — borne in great clusters 
which almost cover the plant. No. 1 grade, 50c.

CLIMBING ROSES 
A climbing rose will produce as many flowers as 
a dozen bush roses. Most varieties will not flower 
the first year, but practically all sorts will yield a 
wealth of bloom the second year. They may be 
trained against walls or fences and many of the 
vigorous growers will climb quickly into the 
branches of tall trees.

PINK 
Climbing Cecil Brunner. This famous climbing 
Rose, with its quantities of perfect miniature pink 
buds and flowers, is a favorite in California. Ex¬ 
ceedingly vigorous, with dense handsome foliage. 
You can cut a bouquet of beautiful buds from it 
almost any time in the year. 
Clg. Belle of Portugal. Extremely large flowers, of 
delicate soft pink, tinged with salmon. The well¬ 
shaped buds are often 3 inches long. Because of its 
strong growth it blooms very little for a year or 
two, but thereafter is very floriferous. 
Clg. Mme. Edouard Herriot. (Daily Mail) Bril¬ 
liant coral-red buds opening to flowers of flaming 
pink and orange. Flowers are slightly larger and 
more brilliant than those of the bush type and 
equally floriferous. 
Clg. Louise Breslau. HT. Buds coral-red, shaded 
chrome-yellow; the very large expanded flowers are 
shrimp-pink, shaded coppery orange and chrome. 
RED 
Clg. American Beauty (H.P.)—Deep pink shaded 
toward the center with carmine-crimson. Large 
fragrant. Hardy. 
Climbing Etoile de Hollande. In our opinion, the 
finest red flowered everblooming ciimber. A strong 
grower, it produces some of the finest big red buds 
and open flowers that we have ever seen on any 
Rose, and the blooms are larger and on longer 
stems than the bush Etoile de Hollande and pos¬ 
sess the same delicious fragrance. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. (Improved.) An intense 
vivid scarlet, semi-double, very freely produced in 
clusters of 3 to 20 blooms on long much branched 
canes, the plant being a mass of color from top to 
bottom. The flowers do not fade and there is noth¬ 
ing to compare with it for striking effect. No. 1 
grade, 50c; No. V /2 grade, 35c. 
YELLOW—GOLDEN 
Climbing Golden Emblem. HT. It produces great 
quantities of the same highly colored buds of golden 
yellow with brilliant red shadings, which are so 
much admired on its bush form. Extremely vigor¬ 
ous, rampant grower, with enormous heavy canes 
6 to 10 feet long. 
Clg. Marechal Neil. Long a favorite climber, this 
superb old lemon yellow variety with its large 
globular, highly perfumed blooms, still remains 
deservedly popular. Best in shade, 50c each. 
Climbing Mrs. Erskine P. Thom. Few will dis¬ 
pute the claim of Mrs. E. P. Thom to be one of the 
finest yellow bush Roses, and many will place it 
first. We have it now in a vigorous climber, mul¬ 
tiplying many times the number of flawless yellow 
buds which can be produced on a bush type. 
Clg. President Herbert Hoover. Beautifully formed, 
large blossoms and very fragrant. A charming com¬ 
bination of cerise-pink, flame, scarlet, and yellow, 
with broad, thick petals, retained for days after the 
flowers have fully opened. The foliage is clean and 
handsome. 
Climbing Talisman. It is difficult to imagine any¬ 
thing more striking than a fence or trellis covered 
with the lovely red and gold flowers of the much 
admired Talisman. 
Clg. Yellow Cecile Brunner. Cl.Poly. Similar to 
the popular Baby Rose but a beautiful shade of 
golden yellow. 50c each.
