Hew Roses VF MORE RECENT INTRODUCTION 
Orange Nassau (Patented)—A Rose we introduced for the 
first time last spring, and it has proven one of the most popular 
that we have ever distributed. Very unusual shade of color, and 
while it does not grow into a large bush still it blooms pro- 
fusely and its very pronounced Rose fragrance is not the least 
of its many qualities. Inner petals coral-red with bright orange- 
buff reverse, and as the flower ages the color lightens to a 
shrimp pink. When fully open, soft salmon-orange is the gen- 
eral effect of this Rose. Price: $1.50 each, $15.00 
per dozen.

Pearl S. Buck (Patent Applied For)—This new Rose shown 
at the Gardens on Parade at the World’s Fair is most attrac- 
tive either in its bud stage or fully open flowers. Glowing 
orange hue when first appearing, softening to a deep yellow 
tinged apricot as it matures. Very prolific grower with a rich 
fragrance. Deep green foliage making a very fine foil for this 
lovely colored Rose. Price: ®1.50 each, $15.00 per 
dozen. 
R. M. S. Queen Mary (Patent No. 249)—This beautiful 
variety is quite distinct from anything seen in Roses to date. 
It is a marvelous combination of vivid shades, a rich glowing 
blending of salmon and pink, with an orange base. The buds 
long and pointed; flowers are of marvelous size and form. 
Very productive and delightfully perfumed. Fine strong grower 
and a magnificent variety in every way. Price: $1.25 each, 
$12.50 per dozen. 
Signora (Plant Patent No. 201)—A pronounced advance over 
“Talisman” or “President Hoover.” Born and raised on the 
Riviera it is acclimated to hot dry weather and has ample vigor 
for our northern climate. Long pointed buds of brownish orange 
opening to a lighter mandarin and salmon. Beautiful rich green 
heavy foliage. Much more petalage than “President Hoover” and 
extremely fragrant. A most prolific grower. Price: $1.00 
each, $10.00 per dozen. 
Sterling (Patent No. 21)—A really true pink Rose. The yellow 
base of the petal enhances the brilliancy of the color to a con- 
siderable extent. A fine strong grower giving quantities of flow- 
ers throughout the entire season. Price: $1.00 each, 
$10.00 per dozen.

Attention of Miss Helen Totty, 
President. 
My dear Miss Totty: 
Offhand I would say that in the last five 
years or so we have received from your firm upward of five 
thousand potted roses. Every year they have been good, 
some years better than others, perhaps, but always satis- 
factory. The eight hundred roses I received from you a 
couple of days ago are so outstandingly good and uniform 
in size that I cannot keep quiet about them, and must 
tell you. 
As a practical grower for many years myself, 
I know the constant care and attention it requires to bring 
them to perfection as you have done, and I compliment you 
on having some people in your organization who have skill 
and interest enough to accomplish this. It is easy enough 
to grow two or three dozen in good condition, but when it 
comes to such a quantity, that is another matter. 
It will interest you to hear that the day after 
your roses were received and planted, one of the outstanding 
rosarians in this country, who I think is the dean of the 
profession, frankly admitted to me that these were about the 
finest lot of pot-grown roses he had ever seen in his long 
years of experience. On your next trip to New York you 
must stop in and look at them; I am sure you will be happy 
to see them doing so well. 
Thank you, and congratulations. 
Yours very truly,
