Greenhouse Roses Standard Varieties 
Price: 2% inch—$50.00 per 100; 3 inch—$60.00 per 100; 4 inch—$70.00 per 100 
Better Times (Patented)—The outstanding Rose of the decade. Its color 
is a brilliant cerise pink with a silvery sheen, as the flower develops. 
Very firm texture with beautiful clean heavy foliage. 
Briarcliff—Color more brilliant than Columbia, being a true rose pink 
without any shadings whatever. Long pointed bud and very fragrant. 
Every bud of this variety is 100 per cent perfect. Abundant dark 
green foliage and habit of plant very vigorous. 
Cavalier (Patented-Samtmann)]—A very free flowering, beautiful shade 
of burnt-orange Rose that created quite a sensation at the Philadel- 
phia Show last spring. Very much on the order of ‘'Mrs. Roosevelt’’ 
in growth. Extremely free flowering and a nice grower. The flowers 
on this variety open slowly and evenly, which adds to the lasting 
quality of the same. 
Cecile Brunnmer—Known under various names, such as Sweetheart, 
Mignon, etc. It is a dainty, miniature Rose. Light pink in color, and 
every greenhouse should have a few plants of this beautiful little 
Rose. 
Chieftain (Patent 150/—A very deep red in color with a slight yellow 
shading at the base of the bud diffusing a small amount of yellow 
into the red of ‘'Chieftain,'’ making it a most superior growing shade. 
A very healthy grower producing flowers on sturdy stems. Still a very 
fine red Rose for the greenhouse even though it has been in cultiva- 
tion over five years. 
Golden Rapture—Here we have a beautiful yellow Rose that is the 
same color as Claudia Pernet and is a quick growing, easily handled 
variety. This yellow is rapidly displacing every other yellow at the 
present time. Foliage, stem, habit, and freedom of growth are per- 
fection. We recommend this Rose to any grower looking for a per- 
fect yellow Rose. 
Happy Days (Patented)—The color is a bright clear pink, much brighter 
than that of the original parent, but the growth, stems, and foliage, 
the exact duplicate of Briarcliff. Much longer in the bud and nat- 
urally a larger flower. 
Joanna Hill—The blooms are clear yellow, deepening at the center 
and hold their color under artificial light. It produces strong stems 
without pinching and can be grown at low cost and sold at a more 
reasonable price than Souv. de Claudius Pernet. 
Lum’s White—A rejuvenation of the old Double White Killarney, show- 
ing an improvement in growth, a larger flower, and a much purer, 
white color. The growth is much longer and the general appearance 
of the plant better in every way than the original variety. 
Mrs. R. M. Finch—A Polyantha Rose that is displacing Cecile Brunner 
for growing in the greenhouse. Color, deep shell pink, slightly larger 
in flower than Cecile Brunner and one of the best of the Baby Ram- 
bler types. 
Peter’s Briarcliff—A deep pink sport of the ever popular ‘‘Briarcliff."’ 
A duplicate of ‘‘Briarcliff’’ in every way except color, which is many 
degrees deeper. 
Pink Delight—A beautiful brilliant pink Rose, stem and foliage all that 
can be desired. The fragrance is more pronounced in this Rose than 
in any others. Rather a tall grower, but if given sufficient head room 
will give a splendid account of itself. 
Pinocchio (Patent No. 84 J&P)—Bright salmon-pink in color, creating a 
sensation wherever shown. Exquisite in form and size. Slightly larger 
than ‘'Mrs. Finch'’ but an attractive deeper pink, flushed salmon. 
Excellent variety where a miniature is desired. 
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. 
R. M. S. Queen Mary (Patent No. 249)—The color is a beautiful, 
striking, glistening shade of salmon-pink, which lights up beautifully 
under artificial light and makes a marvelous decoration. The growth 
is particularly strong and free, the leaves thick and lustrous, and are 
entirely immune to mildew or black spot. 
Starlite (Patent No. 414 J&P)—Large, full flowers of pure white. Long 
pointed buds on long, strong stems. Heavy dark green foliage, well 
spaced on the stem. A vigorous growing Rose of heavy branching 
habit. The introducer states that this Rose has a production nearly 
equal to ‘‘Talisman. 
Talisman—A seedling of Ophelia and Souv. de Claudius Pernet. ‘‘Like 
a choice, rare cameo, this new seedling Rose stands out in rich and 
distinctive relief against any background." ‘'Talisman"’ is already so 
well known that it needs no further comment. 
Token (Patented)—A magnificent apricot orange shading to golden- 
pink. Long high pointed buds, and an exquisite variety in every way. 
At the base of the petals is a clear yellow suffusion, which lights 
up the flower beautifully. A Rose that is thoroughly alive in color. 
Vanity Fair (Roberts Patent 583)—One of the most exquisite green- 
house Roses that has been introduced to date. A lovely soft shade 
of shell-pink that is in demand on many occasions. Long pointed buds 
produced on heavy stems with fine dark green foliage. This is with- 
out exception the most fragrant Rose on the market today and it re- 
tains this fragrance until the very last petal has fallen from the 
flower. Flowers, after being cut, will keep in ideal condition for 
over a week. In other words, it holds the petals long aft 
Roses have dropped all their petals. We cannot say to much in com- 
mendation of this fine variety. Price: 21”, 75¢ per plant; 3”, 
85c per plant; 4”, $1.00 per plant. 
Yellow Gloria (Patented)—Al! orange sport of Talisman, a most pleas- 
ing color under any light. Has more petals than any of the Talisman 
types and produces well shaped buds on long stiff stems. A wonder- 
ful keeper and shipper, and very productive at all seasons. A 
clean, healthy grower.
