STAR FRAGRANT SET 



When you can de- 

 pend on exhilarating 

 fragrance in addition 

 to delightful colors 

 and fine flowers for 

 cutting, it adds im- 

 measurably to the 

 value of a Rose. In 

 form, color, perfume, 

 no two of these are 

 alike.

blooming Star Roses 



• ETOILE DE HOLLANDE. H.T. Crimson. 



See illustration. The name means "Star of 

 Holland" and this Rose, introduced 32 years 

 ago, could just as aptly have been named 

 "Etoile de Universe," for it is the most uni- 

 versally beloved, everblooming crimson Rose. 

 It is as nearly faultless as any Rose can be, and 

 it charms continuously with its delightful color, 

 its form, long cutting stems, vigorous, healthy 

 growth, and, most interesting of all, its intense 

 true Rose perfume. For unceasing, all-summer 

 delight, plant an entire bed of Etoile 

 de Hollande. 75 cts. each.* 



• GRUSS AN AACHEN. Ben.- 

 Bour. White to carmine. A depend- 

 able continuous-blooming bedding or 

 border variety. While on short stems 

 and not good for cutting, the large, 

 fully double flowers of flesh-pink, 

 salmon, and yellow are a continuous 

 delight in the garden. Has 80 petals 

 and is mildly fragrant. 75 Cts. each.* 



• HEINRICH WENDLAND. H.T. 



(W. Kordes Sons, 1930.) Reddish 

 copper. Large, very double (70 

 petals) flowers of reddish copper with 

 an orange flush over all; backs of the 

 petals are rich orange. It has a rich, 

 syrupy fragrance. Blooms come 

 singly on strong, upright plants with 

 shiny, leathery foliage. $1 each.* 



*JULIEN POTIN. H.T. Golden 

 yellow. In long-pointed form and 

 rich coloring this is the aristocrat of 

 pure yellow Roses. Of medium to 

 large size, the pointed, clear yellow 

 buds open to splendid golden yellow 

 blooms which hold their color well. 

 The finest yellow for exhibition. Fra- 

 grant flowers are quite freely produced 

 on upright plants. 90 cts. each.* 



• KAISERIN AUGUSTE VIK- 

 TORIA. H.T. See illustration. 

 Cream-white. Long, shapely buds 

 open to a full-petaled, cream-white, 

 deliciously scented flower with grace- 

 fully recurved petals. A choice Rose 

 for cutting as the blooms come singly 

 on firm, upright stems. 75 Cts, 



each.*

Order No. 18102. September 20, 1935. 



I wish I had room for a hundred of your 

 "Star Rose Bushes" instead of the 45 which 

 our limited space now permits. 



Need I say more to show how highly the 

 Rose bushes you send out are esteemed. — 

 T. R. A., Mt. Airy, Philadelphia, Pa. 



• FEDERICO CASAS. H.T. See il- 

 lustration. This gay Rose has been very 

 popular with visitors, and 

 we believe is one of the most 

 desirable of the modern 

 "fancy" Roses, as it is sim- 

 ply illuminated with the 

 brilliant colors that we asso- 

 ciate with sunny Spain. The 

 big, nearly double (25-pet- 

 aled) flowers are a lovely 

 blend of copper and orange 

 and are pleasantly fragrant. 

 They are continuously pro- 

 duced, and, like most of 

 the high-colored Roses, are 

 especially brilliant in the 

 cool days of autumn. The 



vigorous plants have strong, thorny canes holding each 

 flower erect on good cutting stems. The foliage is an 

 attractive shade of light green. $1 each.*
