MIAMI. Patent 977. 3-4 feet. 
Summer field notes—At long last a rival for Fred Edmunds in the deep- 
orange tones. Fine plants, long cutting stems. Very large blooms with a 
two-tone effect—orange-yellow inside, carmine-rose outside—orange pre- 
dominating when fully opened. Fruity fragrance. The rose world will 
like it! Could win a blue ribbon. (Supply limited) 2.00 | . 
McGREDY'S IVORY. (Portadown Ivory.) ARS 78%. Medium. 
Thought by many who should know, the finest white rose in commerce; 
rated with the best by the American Rose Society, and granted a First 
Class Certificate by the NRS of England. Long pointed buds, of creamy 
white, open to 28 petalled blooms of great distinction. 
A white rose should be big, handsome, and fragrant. McGredy’s Ivory 
is all three. . 
“Top variety for the exhibitor and of high merit as a garden Rose. Remarkable 
for size of flowers and the great substance of the thick, broad petals, and the very 
strong stems. Gold Medal winner.” R. Harkness & Co., England. ~ 
3 for 3.85. ach iia 
CLIMBING McGREDY’S IVORY. Cli. H. T. 10 - 15 feet. 
With a dearth of completely satisfactory hybrid-tea white climbers, the 
advent of a show rose in this color and class is most welcome and import- 
ant. I will spare you a repetition of my much-mentioned endorsement of 
climbers, but . . . well, I said I would spare you, so I will!

McGREDY'S YELLOW. ARS 79%. Medium. 
Nice spreading plants with dark, healthy foliage. Says R. Harkness & Co., 
England—"Hardly any rose grower would omit this from his best six, whether 
for garden or exhibition.” 
From my impression, needs disbudding for exhibition, as inclines to 
bloom in long-stemmed clusters. 3 for 4.00 each 1.50 
Last summer the catalog-writer mentioned under this description a planned 
rose pilgrimage to Ireland in 1954. Alas, “the best-laid plans o’ mice an’ men, gang 
oft a-gley.” 
MME. BUTTERFLY. H. Tea. (1918.) ARS 74%. Medium. 
Delicately beautiful offspring of the famous parent, Ophelia—deeper in 
color, pink faintly tinted gold—of fine form and fragrance. Remembered 
and wanted by many and included by the ARS with a 74% rating, in its 
carefully selected list. 3 for 5.00 each 2.00 
CLIMBING MME. HENRI GUILLOT. Patent 788. ARS 80%. 15 - 20 feet. 
(Ahn-ree Ghee-yoh) (phonetics by 'Dixie.”) We say withcut hesitation, 
this is one of the glossiest, healthiest, handsomest climbers it has been our 
privilege to grow and rave about. The large blooms are an indescribable 
tone of dark coral-pink—a coler unlike any other rose we know. Rated 
80% by the ARS, placing Mme. Guillot among the country’s leading 
climbing roses. 3 for 5.25 each 208
