Tea and Hybrid Tea Roses 
Field-grown, hardy, 2-year, No. 1 plants: 75¢ each; 3 for $2.00 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 pro- 
duced 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 last- 
ing, 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 moder- 
ately double, especially attractive when half blown. Its dark red overlaid 
with almost black velvet shadings, is irresistible. 
- GRENOBLE GLOWING scarlet-crimson. The plant is very vigorous 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; delicate 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 con- 
tinuous 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 bed- 
ding 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 quantities to supply the demand. Also, it is a fine Rose 
in the garden. 
RADIANCE. Extra hardy, vigorous and prolific; one of the best all-around gar- 
den Roses. Its color is a beautiful blending of carmine-rose with shades of 
opal and copper. 
SUNBURST. Golden yellow with yellow-orange center. A good variety. 
TALISMAN. The most gorgeous assemblage of color in one flower ever pre=- 
sented 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.
