ALL-AMERICA AWARD WINNER FOR 1965 



(see cover) 



Hybrid Tea. (Swim & Weeks) Plant Pat. 2370. We believe this to be 

 the finest red rose of all time. Strong, vibrant and beautiful, Mister 

 Lincoln produces masses of deep, velvety-rich, red blooms, 6 inches 

 wide that stand tall on the plant. . . one specimen bloom to each 

 stem. The fragrance is outstanding, strong and very pleasing. The 

 bud is long, full and well pointed, becoming urn-shaped as the petals 

 begin to curl back from their high centers. The flowers are ideal for 

 cutting — long-stemmed beauties that hold their form and color well 

 and look especially brilliant in a bouquet even under artificial light- 

 ing. With heavy, well-branched canes that stand strong and tall, 

 Mister Lincoln is a rose which can be used as a specimen plant 

 standing alone or, placed in the "back row," lifts your garden to new 

 heights of beauty. Large, glossy, dark green leaves are tailor-made 

 to attractively clothe this tall, vigorous plant. Hardy, as well as 

 disease-resistant. Mister Lincoln has all the attributes to make it a 

 "once-in-a-decade" rose. 



$3.50 each — 3 or more, $3.10 each.
