MRS. SAM McGREDY (1929) 
This is truly a ‘must have’’ in every rose 
garden. For years it has been at the top 
of the list of roses of its type. Long 
pointed buds of scarlet-orange, washed 
with copper and red. The open bloom is 
rich apricot, shaded with bronze. Very 
double. Long stems with few thorns. 
Reddish bronze foliage in the spring 
attracts much favorable attention. Low 
grower, of spreading habit, and flowers 
possess a sweet fragrance. Each......$1.00 
NEW YORKER (1947) 
A new velvety-scarlet that promises to be 
a fine addition to the few good red roses. 
It is a large open bloom, quite double, 
with a pleasant fruity fragrance. The 
plant is vigorous and bushy in growth. 
An abundance of bloom, which seemed 
quite unfading in the hot summer days.

NOCTURNE (1947) 
This is a very deep dark cardinal red, 
shading to deep crimson. The bud is long 
and pointed, and opens to a semi-double 
cupped bloom. The foliage is dark and 
leathery, which is unusual in the deeper 
toned roses. The plant makes a vigorous 
growth, of bushy habit. It is free flower- 
ing. It was All American for 1948.

OPHELIA (1912) 
As far back as we can remember roses, 
Ophelia has been known as the best of 
its type. Soft shell-pink, shading in hot 
sunshine to creamy white. Perfectly 
formed. Sweetly perfumed. No other 
rose can quite take the place of Ophelia.

PEACE (1945) 
We really should like to have poetic abil- 
ity, now, as ordinary garden-variety 
prose can never tell you how beautiful 
“Peace” is. Each season more and more 
rose fanciers decide that Peace is the 
best rose in their garden. We have never 
seen a photograph of Peace that does it 
justice. Peace is the first rose to be 
awarded the National Gold Medal of the 
A.R.S., the highest rose honor in 
America. Peace has been awarded 
“Queen of the Show” medals all across 
the United States. Great fine strong 
plants with disease resistant ‘varnished”’ 
foliage, produce an abundance of these 
long stemmed perfect blooms, A fine 
long golden yellow bud opens to a pale 
yellow many petalled bloom with faint 
pink picotee edges. Gradually, day by 
day, this bloom opens to a huge ala- 
baster’ white which turns to a pure soft 
pink before it drops. Dr. Horsley of 
Wyoming, who has 49 plants of Peace 
in his garden says, ‘Still merits top of 
the list’. The Peace plants in our own 
test garden are a constant joy.

PICTURE (1932) 
The most perfectly formed of the medium- 
sized blooms. The color is a warm shade 
of pink, with a faint undertone of salmon, 
the general effect being cheerful and 
glowing. A sweet tea fragrance. Well- 
balanced growth with one continuous 
burst of bloom after another, all through 
the season. There are several Picture 
Tree Roses in our test garden and they 
attract much favorable comment.

PRESIDENT HERBERT HOOVER (1930) 
It is a little hard to imagine a rose planting 
without at least one Hoover rose. How- 
ever, the plant does grow so large, and 
the stems are so long on each flower that 
we suggest that you plant it with that in 
mind. Huge buds of flaming scarlet and 
yellow, open to soft creamy pink with 
golden shadings. Sparse and sometimes 
unattractive foliage is Hoover’s only fault.

RAMON BACH (1937) 
A truly wonderful rose! A new type of 
petalage gives this rose distinction, and 
it has attracted continuous attention in our 
test garden. Apricot-buff on reverse of 
petals and a touch of salmon-pink on the 
inside, which combine in a soft amber 
yellow, with a luminous glow. The open 
bloom has a fluted effect much like a 
cactus dahlia. Excellent for cutting.
