WAR DANCE 



STARFIRE 



To do justice to this brilliant new Grandi- 

 flora, and to yourself, too, please turn for a 

 moment to the back cover where War Dance is shown in all its 

 brilliance and where a complete description is set down for your 

 information. In my opinion, no rose is as "red hot" as this bright 

 newcomer. 



BEN HUR P'^*"* P***- ^PP- F^or. Opening from urn-shaped 

 buds with high centers, the Ben Hur flowers are 

 5-inch beauties in vivid cardinal-red with rich, velvety maroon over- 

 tones. Thick, substemtial petals. Blooms come singly and in clusters. 

 Tall plant is vigorous. Glossy foliage. $3 ea.; 3 or more, §2.65 ea. 

 Q^l QCIJ GIRL I think so well of this yellow Grandiflora , 

 that I put its picture and description on ,^^ 

 page 9 where I hoped you would not overlook it, and where I had 

 more space to display it better. To my mind (and to plenty of others) 

 it's the only worthwhile Grandiflora in clear yellow — really fine! 



(Lammerts.) Plant Pat. 1742. All-America winner 

 for 1959 — A currant-red beauty. The deizzling 

 ^ga^ flowers come singly on the stem and in clusters. The 

 *^P tall, impressive plant is loaded with them. Glossy, 

 "^ bronze-green leaves. The picture leaves much to be 

 desired — but Steu-fire doesn't! $2.50 ea.; 3 or more, 

 $2.20 ea. 



I^QIJT^^Mf^/^ Plant Pat. 1383. I like this one 

 in particular because of its 

 lovely rosy salmon color. Large, 40-petaled flowers — 

 long, strong stems — 3 to 5-foot plant — lots of flowers. 

 Nice, high-centered form. $2.75 ea.; 3 or more, $2. 10 <>a. 



PINK PARFAIT <|rrV,iiSc,"£ 



blend of dawn-pink to 

 Often 100 buds on the 

 plant at once! Neat, handsome bush. Fine, 

 fragrant flowers. An entrancing rose! $3 ea.; 3 or 

 more, $2.65 ea. 



Plant Pat. 1066. Still another 

 fine red — a geumet ch£U"mer 

 with a most unusual, lively sheen on the 



Eetals. The 3-foot plant beeu-s the big 

 looms individually suid in clusters, and 

 they come in profusion. Sturdy, bushy 

 plant with a nice way about it. $2 ea.; 

 3 or more, $1.75 ea.
