Everblooming Star Roses, continued 



Mrs. Henry 



Bowles. 



Perfect for 



cutting 



•MRS. HENRY BOWLES. H.T. Rose-pink. 

 There are so many pink Roses that new ones are 

 received with a frown and must really be su- 

 perior to win Stardom. However, Mrs. Henry 

 Bowles is one of the Stars. It has forced itself to 

 the front of the pink battalion and is there to 

 stay. The blooms are warm rosy pink, tinted 

 with salmon-orange, and are of unusual substance 

 and lasting quality, making it one of the best 

 varieties for cutting. It is not merely an exquisite 

 pink, but its brilliant, bold petals intensify in 

 color under artificial light. The beautifully 

 pointed buds are carried on upright stems. 

 Growth and foliage are nearly ideal for a bedder, 

 and hardiness is satisfactory. A first-rate pink 

 that we are glad to recommend. $1.25 each. 



•MRS. AARON WARD. H.T. Golden fawn. 

 One of the best Roses for boutonnieres. See 

 description and color illustration on page 22. 



•MRS. ARTHUR ROBERT WADDELL. 



Pernet. Coppery gold. Long reddish copper 

 buds, which open to semi-double flowers of 

 coppery gold, changing to soft pink as the 

 flower ages. $1 each. 



First Offense — Readily Pardoned 



October 8, 1930 

 This is my first offense at writing to any company to 

 express my appreciation of anything that I have ever 

 bought, but the Star Dozen Roses that I bought of you 

 last spring were so exceptionally fine I could not let it pass. 

 Some of the plants were budded when I got them, and every 

 bud matured into a fine Rose, and they have had Roses on 

 them constantly all summer. And now, on October 8, 

 they are all budded. I have shown them to a great many 

 people who have taken your address. — W. J. B., Jamestown,

•MRS. CHARLES BELL. H.T. Shell-pink. A 

 superb sport of the famous Radiance, and equal 

 to that variety in most respects, but desirably 

 distinct in its color which is a true even shell-pink 

 with a heavy salmon suffusion, giving it the true 

 opalescence of a pearl, and an unforgetably beau- 

 tiful shade. In some soils the color is a decided 

 j light salmon, and a vase of these Roses is almost 

 certain to gain a prize at any local Rose 

 show. The blooms are well formed, with 

 petals of heavy texture, so the cut- 

 flowers keep a long time. The bush 

 grows as tall as Radiance, the foliage 

 is healthy, large, and disease-resistant 

 and the flowers come continuously, 

 from June until hard frost. $1 each. 



4 Great * Roses $3-50 



*^ For almost continuous bloom *^ 



Add the above Rose, Mrs. Charles Bell, to 



the three shown on opposite page and you 



will have four of the healthiest, heartiest- 



. growing, most free-blooming Roses on the market 



f today.
