Field Grown ROSES 
Tea and Hybrid Tea Roses 
Field-grown, hardy, 2-year, No. 1 plants: 50c each; 3 for $1.25 postpaid. 
AUTUMN. Most extraordinary colored rosebud—burnt orange 
on strong stems for cutting. Foliage glossy and very dark green. 
BRIARCLIFF. Handsome flowers of silvery rose-pink. 
BETTY UPRICHARD. A charming type with rolling edges. A 
blend of deep carmine with coppery orange, the interior being mostly a 
delicate salmon-pink. 
CHARLES K. DOUGLAS. A very fine bright red bedding rose. 
The flowers are large semi-double, brilliant crimson with a scarlet 
undertone, and are produced in large numbers throughout the season. 
DAME EDITH HELEN. A magnificent, fragrant, full-bodied 
new Rose of many substantial petals which curl back prettily, holding 
steadily to one vivid pink color, and that the rare Rose du Barri shade. 
E. G. HILL.. H.T. (1929.) Bud very beautiful; flower immense, 
unusually lasting, dazzling scarlet, shading to a deeper, pure red as it 
develops, but never showing purple, borne on long stem. Foliage 
abundant, of fine color. Growth vigorous; very free bloomer. 
ETOILE DE HOLLANDE. H.T. This Rose is comparatively 
new and its worth has been realized more and more as it has been 
tried. It is considered by Rose experts to be one of the best red Roses 
on the market today. Flower moderately double; especially attractive 
when half blown. Its dark red overlaid with almost black velvet shad- 
ings, is irresistible. 
GRENOBLE Glowing scarlet-crimson. The plant is very vig- 
orous and the blooms come on unusually long stems, making it one of 
the best garden roses for cutting. Easily one of the best reds. 
KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA. Full double flowers; 
cate creamy white; deliciously fragrant. 
McGREDY’S SCARLET. Full double, large size and continuous 
bloom; brilliant scarlet-tipped crimson, the base orange-yellow. 
MME. JULES BOUCHE. Is by many believed to be yet the best 
white Hybrid Tea Rose because of its beauty, persistence, strength of 
growth, and its continuous production of lovely buds and flowers. 
MRS. ERSKINE PEMBROKE THOM. (Howard & Smith, 1926.) 
An unfading yellow with dark healthy foliage. Slender yellow buds 
opening to well shaped canary-yellow blooms, deepening in the center. 
A satisfactory Rose for bedding on account of its fine foliage, heavy 
growth and wealth of bloom. 
PADRE. (New.) Brick color, something very desirable. We 
have added this as a striking variety and we hope you will try one of 
these in your garden. 
PRESIDENT HERBERT HOOVER. The brilliant new Hybrid 
Tea Rose that has become popular over night. Picture the amazingly 
rich contrast of its maroon, orange, and gold colorings as they merge 
together in their glorious way. Long, pointed buds, tall, strong stems 
and its heavy blooming qualities make it an ideal Rose for the florist’s 
trade, and so far it has not been grown in near large enough quan- 
tities to supply the demand. Also, it is a fine Rose in the garden. 
RADIANCE. Extra hardy, vigorous and prolific; one of the best 
all-round garden Roses. Its color is a beautiful blending of carmine- 
rose with shades of opal and copper. 
deli- 
SUNBURST. Golden yellow with yellow-orange center. A good 
variety. 
TALISMAN. The most gorgeous assemblage of color in one 
flower ever presented by a Rose. That it has pleased the experts is 
proven by the great number of gold medal awards given it since the 
shows of ’28. The bud is long and shapely, developing into a medium 
sized compactly double flower; a free bloomer, with glossy foliage and 
strong plant growth. Strong colors exhibited, mostly in well defined 
angular blocks; gold, apricot-yellow, blood-orange, deep pink and old 
rose.
