HAPPINESS 
(#911) 
A magnificent large rich deep vel- 
vety crimson Rose of fine firm tex- 
ture and good substance. Long 
canes are produced on this va- 
riety without any pinching what- 
ever and it is pleasingly fragrant. 
The foliage is a beautiful glossy 
deep green in color nicely spaced 
on the stem. This is the finest red 
Rose that has been introduced for 
greenhouse forcing in many years.

New York Horticultural Society

Aristocrat—A new light pink sport of Pink Delight from Avan- 
sino-Mortensen. It is definitely a better producer than the 
original and has a very pleasing blend of light pink colors. 
Better Times—The outstanding Rose of the decade. Its color is 
a brilliant cerise pink with a silvery sheen, as the flower de- 
velops. Very firm texture with beautiful clean heavy foliage. 
Copper Lustre (#4641)—This Rose is a rich copper shade in the 
bud and as it unfolds opens to a rich lustrous pink, very 
aptly named. The bud is long and pointed and averages 
about 30 petals. Foliage is large and dark green. A prolific 
bloomer and a very interesting variety. 
Golden Rapture—Here we have a beautiful yellow Rose that 
is the same color as Claudius Pernet and is a quick growing, 
easily handled variety. Foliage, stem, habit, and freedom of 
growth are perfection. We recommend this Rose to any 
grower looking for a perfect yellow Rose. 
Golden Scepter (#910)—A newcomer in the yellow field, a 
large flower of deep golden yellow borne on long stems with 
deep green glossy foliage. Has big production, always uni- 
form in color. Does not fade. 
Sixteen 
Happy Days—In our opinion the best of all the sports of Briar- 
cliff that have appeared from time to time. The color is a 
bright clear pink, much brighter than that of the original 
parent, but the growth, stems, and foliage, is an exact dupli- 
cate of Briarcliff. 
Orange Delight (#874)—New deep orange, large fragrant 
flower. Medium production, a new color that will be very 
popular. 
Peter’s Briarcliff—A true rose pink without any shadings what- 
ever. 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. 
R. M. S. Queen Mary (#249)—The color is a beautiful, strik- 
ing, glistening shade of salmon-pink, which lights up beauti- 
fully 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 
spots.
