President Hoover (L. B. Coddington, 1930). A glorious Rose, wonderfully free in the easy manner in which it grows and charming in its color arrangement which is a splendid combination of cerise-pink, flame, scarlet and yellow; this combination of colors gives the most dazzling color effect imaginable. The buds are beautifully pointed, the flowers large, composed of broad thick heavy petals, with an ex- quisite fragrance. It is exceptionally free flowering an everyone will be delighted with its habit of growth. Awarded the Gold Medal at the International Flower Show in New York, 1929. $ each. Talisman (Montgomery Co., 1929). The Rose which create! a sensation in all shows during 1928 and 1929 and which was awarded more Gold Medals than any other American Rose yet introduced including the President Coolidge Medal in 1928. It is a most remarkable piece of coloring; a combination of shadings of gold, apricot, yellow, deep pink and old rose. The bud is long, well formed and develops into full double flowers. The plant is a strong grower, with glossy green foliage and free flowering, and the past season has demonstrated its value as a bedding Rose. $ each. p 4. New Hybrid-Tea Rose, Mrs. Ersk
