Hi'! Top is one of the latest introductions of Hill’s. one of 
their best. The handsomely moulded flowers have loosely out- 
ward rolled petals quite pointed, creating the effect so sought 
in Roses. The color at opening is a deep capucine-buff and 
remains that shade in the center of the flower while the outer 
edges of the flower petals turn a pale pinkish buff. Hill Top 
is a very free blooming variety and a clean, strong grower. As 
you know, it is one of the favorite cut flower Roses and soon 
will be a garden favorite because of its color as well as clean, 
strong habit.

Hill Top 
Call Y ho 
All-America Winner for 1949 
(Patent Applied For.) Tallyho combines the finest characteristics 
found in the best Roses of today with a color which is entirely new to 
Roses. The coloring, varying somewhat with the weather and the plant - 
ing location, on the inside of the petals is always a delightful shade 
of pink, such as Tyrian rose, China-rose, Phlox-pink, or Neyron-rose, 
and the outside of the petals varies from crimson to_cardinal-red. 
Although it is a bi-color, the contrast is not great. The buds are 
ovoid in shape, opening to flowers with a spicy fragrance. The long- 
stemmed flowers last exceedingly well when cut because they have 
plenty of substance. It continually branches and throws out long, 
straight flower stems with a beautiful bud at the top. The plant will 
be one of the largest in the Rose garden.

(Plant Patent No. 716) 
All-America Selection for 1946 
Taffeta is outstanding in its ability to produce long-stemmed, 
perfectly formed, fragrant buds in the rich pink and salmon tones 
which almost everyone likes. It is difficult to name one color or 
color combination which will be typical of this beautiful new Rose 
because it is so changeable, displaying dozens of lovely color com- 
binations throughout the season. At various times it may be de- 
scribed as rose-pink, salmon, or apricot, but the predominant color 
is usually a rich carmine-rose in the bud, changing to Begonia-rose 
in the open flower. The reverse of the petals always displays con- 
siderable yellow. Along with the lovely changeable coloring goes a 
perfect slender bud form and frilled, delicately veined petals. The 
medium to large buds open to semi-double flowers of about 21 
petals. The flowers have a pronounced fragrance.
