Long, pointed buds of coppery pink, flushed orange, open to 
44-inch flowers of splendid form of the same color as the 
bud, except that the orange softens te gold. When open they 
disclose a mass of golden stamens. As the flower ages the 
color changes to a soft satiny pink, with an attractive tinge, 
but does not lose any of its loveliness and is usually clear 
and fresh at all times. 
Mme. Jules Bouche Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00 
While not a pure white, it is to all intents white and without 
question the best white everblocming bedding Rose yet intro- 
duced. The flowers are large, quite double and of splendid 
form. It is fragrant, a vigorcus grower and very free flow- 
ering. 
Mrs. Erskine Pembroke Thom Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00

canary-yellow, deepest in center. Blooms very freely.

This Rose is almost unbelievable. One marvel of it is the dawnlike 
range of colors through which it passes, from opening yellow buds, 
with edges picoteed cerise, to the glorious 5-inch, alabaster blooms, 
each petal edged with pink that seems to deepen as the flower slowly 
opens. The shades of color vary, too, from flower to flower and 
through the changing seasons. Though the bloom is unusually large, 
long lasting and constantly fresh looking, its effect is always delicate 
and lovely. The individual petals are large and of great substance, 
gradually opening, a few at a time, around a high-pointed center, to 
great, golden hearted, very double, fully open flower. The plant is 
as superior as the bloom, and in the same larqe-scale way. The 
flowers are borne singly on heavy stems so strong and straight. It 
needs no disbudding to produce exhibition blooms which hoid their 
form and freshness longer than other Hybrid Teas. The flowers last 
along time and they are produced all season in endless succession, 
through various stages of opening and changing colors: canary-yellow, 
pale gold, cream, ivory and alabaster; edged cerise, rose or apple- 
blossom-pink. M. Meilland, the hybridizer, has given the world many 
beautiful Roses, yet of this he says: ‘This is a rare discovery and 
only takes place once in the career of an originator.”

and produces many’ flowers, each with an individual stem. The buds are 
long and gracefu'ly shaped with a form similar to that of Charlotte 
Armstrong in both bud and open flower. The color is dark red with 
maroon shadings. Like most very dark red Roses, it tends to purple some x

“The Memory Rose.’ Some of the remarkable features of this 
Rose are embodied in a plant of tremendous vigor, possibly un- 
equaled by any other Rose in commerce today. It will grow and 
bloom freely under most adverse conditions and there is scarcely a 
period during the season when magnificent buds and flowers are not 
available for garden ornamentation or for cutting purposes. The 
flowers are borne on vigorous canes and the bud is exceptionally 
long and pointed. The upper surface of the petals is a delicate 
shade of shell-pink, with golden bronze shadings at the base. The 
outer, or reverse side of the petals, is vivid Tyrian rose. Last, but 
not least, Pearl Harbor is distinct from most other Hybrid Tea Roses 
in the fact that the plant is practically thornless. Extra fine plants, 
No. 1 XX quality.

A beautiful new hybrid Tea Rose with glorious deep rose buds opening 
to lovely pink blooms tinted with orange at the base of the petals.

We have no hesitancy in stating that this Rose is the most brilliant red 
Rose ever produced. ‘’Crimson Glory” is admittedly a magnificent piece 
of color, but the color is dull by comparison. The name of this Rose 
is a descriptive one, and was suggested by Dr. J. Horace McFarland 
of the American Rose Society. It is close to a Poinsettia-scarlet. The 
buds are ideal in form, long and pointed; fairly full petalage, a good 
grower, and fine as a cut flower. This Rose was awarded. a Certificate 
of Merit by American Rose Society, 1938.
