SELECT-TvOSES I. / PHILADELPHIA^ This Year's New Hybrid-Tea Roses—Continued Novelties and Varieties of Special Merit Syracuse (Mallerin, 1930). Large pointed crimson bud, developing into a very large, very full, double, long-lasting, slightly fragrant, scarlet-crimson flower, borne singly on long stem. Growth very vigorous, bushy, upright with large, dark green, disease-resistant foliage. A profuse continuous bloomer. Very hardy. each. Talisman (Montgomery Co., 1929). The Rose of many Gold Medals. It is the most remarkable piece of coloring that we know in any Rose; a combination of shadings of gold, apricot, yellow and deep pink or old rose. The outside of the petals is bright yellow, gold, and pink; as the flower develops and the petals unfold they become bright apricot, gold, deep rose-pink or old-rose. The bud is long, perfectly formed, averaging about 25 to 28 petals, the plant is a strong, vigorous grower with glossy green foliage and free flowering. $ each. Vaterland (Plitzer, 1928). The most distinct dark colored variety yet introduced, deeper and richer in effect than the Hybrid Perpetual variety Prince Camille de Rohan, a rich deep velvety scarlet maroon and a splendidly formed high centered flower of remarkable keeping qualities. The plant is of vigorous strong erect habit with healthy foliage and free and perpetual flowering; unquestionably the best of this type that has yet come to our notice. $ each. W. E. Chaplin (Chaplin, 1929). A most meritorious red Rose of the Lord Charlemont type but better, being a free vigorous grower with healthy disease-resisting foliage. The flowers are large; every bud develops to a perfect full, high-centered, very lasting moderately sweet scented flower. Color deep crimson, deepen- ing to carmine crimson; does not blue or burn; these are carried on long strong stems, a very free continuous bloomer. $ ea
