 rose. Winner of the Foreign Gold Medal at Bagatelle 

 in 1934. A splendid Rose in a new rose-coIo . Dot

 old-rose lightly flushed with orange, and the petals 

 have an iridescent sheen which adds to its attractive- 

 ness. The flowers are large, with 50 or more petals, 

 and have an artistic, loose form. The delicious fra- 

 grance of ripe blackberries adds to its desirability. A 

 generous bloomer. Potted plants only, ready May 1.

•CRIMSON GLORY. H.T. Plant Patent No. 105. 

 Deep crimson. This beautifully modeled Rose gives 

 every promise of becoming one of our most popular 

 and best garden varieties. It is a vigorous grower, pro- 

 ducing a great abundance of superb blooms. They are 

 immense in the fall. The plant is of spreading habit, 

 so desirable for garden planting. Its large buds are of 

 typical urn-shape. They open into full, well-formed, 

 delightfully fragrant blooms of a deep vivid crimson, 

 shaded ox-blood-red and finished with a soft velvety 

 nap. Silver Medal, International Flower Show, New 

 York, Spring, 1934. (From introducer's description.)

 red stripes. When fully open the alternating colors are 

 evenly divided. Here is a highly colored Rose with an 

 alluring spicy scent. The plant is unusually strong and 

 upright in growth, with foliage well up on the flower- 

 stem. First Certificate, Bagatelle, 1932. $1.25 each.f

•CATALONIA. H.T. (P. Dot, 1933.) Ver- 

 milion. See illustration. A new color in Roses. 

 Catalonia's coloring is so vivid, so different, 

 that we are at a loss for words to describe io 

 properly. The buds are deep rich carmine 

 stained with orange and open to a 50-petaled 

 flower of velvety orange-scarlet, vermilion, 

 cochineal-red, or something like that; anyway, the 

 color is the most vivid we have ever seen in a Rose. 

 Instead of being scentless, as such a spectacular flower 

 has a right to be, it has a rich, fruity fragrance. Keep 

 well sprayed, or dusted, and one startling bloom 

 will pay for the extra care. Gold Medal, Barcelona, 

 1931; First-Class Certificate, National Rose Society 

 Trial-Grounds, 1931. $1.50 each.f 



•GLOWING SUNSET (Wilhelm Breder). H.T. 



(W. Kordes Sons, 1934.) Plant Patent No. 104. Yel- 

 low and pink. A glorious new Hybrid Tea Rose of a 

 most exceptional color combination and petal forma- 

 tion. Its long-pointed huds open to fully double flowers 

 of most artistic form, with the inner petals lengthened 

 and twisted in the bizarre manner of a choice cactus 

 dahlia. The color is an indescribable combination of 

 orange-yellow and rose-pink. When cut, the blooms 

 keep in perfect condition for several days. They have 

 an alluring fragrance. A free and continuous bloomer. 

 (From introducer's description.) $1.50 each.f
