Vassar 

 Centennial 



H.T. (Meilland.) Plant Pat. 

 2031. Every now and then a 

 coincidence occurs which 

 makes a notable event an even 

 happier one. One such was the 

 100th anniversary of fsuned 

 Vassar College and the finding 

 of a suitable new rose to com- 

 memorate the occasion. A com- 

 mittee from the College, after 

 searching fruitlessly at a num- 

 ber of other rose growing 

 establishments, came upon ex- 

 actly what they wanted right 

 here at Stau- Roses. The ladies 

 selected this rose and named 

 it Vsissar Centennial. It htis 

 great size, lovely apricot and 

 pastel-peach coloring, fra- 

 grance, superb growing habit, 

 graceful buds and blooms. 

 It's a read exhibition rose. 

 You need not be a Vassar 

 graduate to own one. S3 ea.; 

 3 or more, $2.65 ea. 



• BANZAI 



wm 



SAHZAi ^•'T- (Marie Louise Meilland.) Plant 

 Pat. App. For. It means a cheer — 

 such as "Hooray!" It's pronounced "Bans-eye." 

 If roses have personalities, and I believe that they 

 do, then Banzai can be characterized as being pert, 

 chipper, gay. Not the biggest rose in the crowd 

 {ZYz inches across) but spirited, smart and sophisti- 

 cated. You can't miss its raspberry glow, its lively 

 pink tones with the blend of cream at the petal 

 bases. Nicely formed buds and flowers come con- 

 tinuously on the low plant which is broad, compact, 

 solid. I'll wager my old typewriter ribbon vs. your 

 spent ball point that if you buy Banzai you'll say^ 

 " Hooray]" S2.50 ea.; 3 or more, S2.20 ea. '
