R.M.S. Queen Mary will be the 

 center of attraction in your Rose- 

 garden this year and for many years to 

 come. Rose lovers have clamored for 

 its introduction ever since it was first 

 exhibited fn many of the shows 

 throughout the world. Leading 

 rosarians have given it unstinted 

 praise, acclaiming it the most out- 

 standing of the new Roses. It cer- 

 tainly is beautiful beyond description

 Roses. Its color is a glorious com- 

 bination of vivid shades, blending 

 rich glowing salmon with an exquisite 

 pure pink and an orange base. The 

 buds are long and pointed and the 

 flowers large and of beautiful form. 

 They are full enough for all purposes,
