(1927) Page(s) 50. Ironclad Rugosa Roses Agnes. (New, 1927.) A worthy yellow Rugosa. Buttercup-yellow buds, passing to clear yellow and opening to full, large blooms of fawn color and fruity fragrance. Does not bleach much and is very lasting, rain or shine. The flowers come all along the branches early in June. This is the only reliably yellow Rugosa. Awarded the Dr. W. Van Fleet Gold Medal by the American Rose Society, 1926. $2 each.
(1927) Page(s) 50. Ironclad Rugosa Roses Agnes Emily Carman. The most brilliant red Hybrid Rugosa—as red as General Jacqueminot. Flowers are large, cupped and delightfully fragrant. Recurrent in bloom. It is vigorous and bushy but shows little of the Rugosa influence in the foliage. $1 each.
(1927) Page(s) 50. Ironclad Rugosa Roses Blanc Double de Coubert. A magnificent double, pure white Hybrid Rugosa which blooms throughout summer and fall. A tall grower. Very fragrant. The best white Rugosa. $1 each.
(1946) Page(s) 4. Includes photo(s). BOUDOIR. H.T. (F. Meilland) An unusual two-toned flower, large and very full, with a strikingly luxurious look. The novel coloring is a rich, radiant Tyrian-rose on the inside of the petals and velvety creamy white on the reverse. The great, fragrant blooms come on rigid, upright stems. A decided novelty that makes a sensational showing anywhere.
(1927) Page(s) 50. Includes photo(s). Ironclad Rugosa Roses Conrad F. Meyer. (Illustrated on opposite page.) One of the finest of the Hybrid Rugosas, producing very fragrant, silvery pink flowers of large size, equal to Hybrid Perpetuals in form. It blooms heavily in June and occasionally thereafter. The bush is extremely vigorous—give it plenty of room, at least 3 feet on every side; or against a building or over an archway, its 6, 8, or 10 feet of growth may easily be trained. The foliage differs from the type in being less corrugated. $1 each.
(1925) F. J. Grootendorst Bright red flowers of small size, fringed and double, produced freely and continuously in large bunches, through spring, summer, and fall. It will, if allowed, in three years, reach a height of 5 feet or more [ca. 1.6 m +], with foliage almost equal to the original Rugosa. Though it can easily be kept lower, it makes a splendid shrub or specimen bush, or the finest type of everblooming hedge."

(1927) Page(s) 50. Includes photo(s). Ironclad Rugosa Roses F. J. Grootendorst (Illustrated on opposite page.) A new combination of the Baby Ramblers with the Rugosa. Bright red flowers of small size, fringed and double, produced freely and continuously in large bunches, through spring, summer, and fall. An ideal hedge plant that will reach 5 feet or more but it will retain its qualities better if pruned each year, leaving only the wood formed the previous season. $1 each.
(1935) Page(s) 2. Includes photo(s). Feu Pernet-Ducher. H. T. (C. MALLERIN, 1934) Plant Patent No. 103. (See front cover) Yellow. One of the most beautiful Roses we have ever seen. Creamy orange buds, heavily marked with carmine, slowly open to spiral flowers of rich yellow, growing lighter toward the edges, with the edges lightly flushed with pink. The autumn flowers are much darker, being a rich golden yellow shading lighter at the edges, occasional flowers having a decided pink tinge. Although fully double, with 80 to 100 thin, tissue-like petals, it has opened perfectly in all kinds of weather. Tall, bushy plants bloom continuously from June until frost, with the heaviest bloom and most beautiful flowers during August when good Roses are scarce. Delightfully fragrant. $2 each; 6 for $10. No further discount on this patented Rose
(1926) Page(s) 17. Includes photo(s). Red Shades—Hybrid Tea Roses Francis Scott Key. This is the Rose of the dreams of the ordinary citizen, and until he gets acquainted with other beautiful forms and colors in Roses, he pictures every Rose he wants to be just like this Francis Scott Key. The color is bright crimson which changed to bluish crimson as the flower ages. It is a wonder for size, and no other variety surpasses it for fullness and perfection of form. During cold, rainy weather, the outside petals may stick and prevent the flower opening, as may happen with any large-petaled fully double Rose. Usually, however, you can depend on magnificent blooms that open freely in hot weather and they are especially fine in late summer. This is an American-bred Rose, as the name implies, a seedling of Radiance, from which it has inherited many good qualities. (See illustration, page 16.) $1 each.
(1931) Page(s) 29. Everblooming Roses, New and Rare Frau Dr. Schricker. Hybrid Bengal. (Felberg-Leclerc, 1927.) Carmine. The Bengal blood in this Rose gives it greater hardiness than the Hybrid Teas, so this recommends it to people in the North who want a continuous-flowering Rose that is hardy. The luminous, carmine-red flowers are of medium size but well formed. They come abundantly throughout the entire season. Fragrance also noteworthy. $3 each.
