J. C. Thornton (Bees, 1926). A most brilliant bright glowing scarlet crimson with buds of exquisite form and fine, full, well-shaped high-centered flowers of great substance, borne singly on long strong stems; of vigorous, free, growth. It may prove to be our best red bedding variety. A Gold Medal Rose of great importance. $ each. Lucie Marie (Alex. Dickson & Sons, 1930). Very long pointed buds, deep yellow splashed with red. As the outer petals unfold, the inner face is yellow with cop- pery venation with the tips of the petals lightly tipped with pink, slightly fragrant. It is of strong vigorous healthy habit of growth with dark-leathery foliage. A most distinct and interesting bedding variety. Awarded Certificate of Merit National Rose Society of England. $ each. Margaret McGredy (McGredy & Son, 1928). We consider this a masterpiece of McGredy's. Large briDiantly-colored double flowers of an entrancing shade of rich Oriental red, passing to carmine-rose, lasting a long time. The plant is of vigorous bushy habit, very free flowering; light spicy fragrance. $ each. Mevrouw G. A. Van Rossem (Van Rossem, 1926). A mar- velously beautiful Rose with a unique color combination not found in any other variety, a most striking blending of dark vivid orange and apricot on a golden yellow ground with frequently touches of bronze on the reverse of the petals. The sweet-scented flowers are very large, of perfect formation both in the bud as well as in the fully developed flower and are pro- duced very freely on vigorous upright grow
