■A^LOWELL THOMAS 



*LOWELL THOMAS. H.T. (Mallerin.) Plant Pat. 595. The 

 deepest, richest yellow in the world of Roses . . . that's the wonder- 

 ful Lowell Thomas. This All-America Award Winner of a few years 

 ago is the same delightful champion today. It holds its glowing 

 color throughout the life of the bloom. The center of this 4-inch 

 beauty is high-cupped, and in bud and blossom the form is lovely. 

 Softly curling petals of good substance provide a richness which 

 can almost be felt. The completely cheerful air of the flower, set off 

 in startling fashion by deep green foliage, is a sight to see. Lowell 

 Thomas' plant is a vigorous grower, reaching sturdily upright with 

 strong, erect stems to hold those glowing yellow flowers proudly. 

 This fine yellow Rose is a splendid choice in itself but should be 

 considered along with the brilliance of the red and the pure beauty 

 of the white varieties pictured here. All three can be purchased at a 

 saving. Lowell Thomas alone is a good buy, too. $2.25 ea.; 3 or 

 more, $2 ea. 



*PRESIDENT EISENHOWER. H.T. (Hill.) Plant Pat. 1217. 

 Doesn't this bright, clear red make a magnificent showing here? 

 Then imagine how much more so it would be "in person" in your 

 geo-den! President Eisenhower is the new "American Beauty" 

 Rose by virtue of its tremendous appeal to gardeners everywhere. 

 Such a wonderful red . . . true and exciting! And such fine, shapely, 

 big buds and blossoms! Substantially formed with from 35 to 40 

 large petals. President Eisenhower blooms are presented in a con- 

 tinuous array of soul-stirring beauty. The heavy-caned plant matches 

 the solid quality of the flowers, growing eagerly and clothing itself 

 with beautiful, dark green foliage which makes the red blooms 

 seem redder still. There is a ruggedness, too, to the plant which 

 resists diseases and makes this Rose even more desirable. It grows 

 low to medium height — ideal for the front row. With so many good 

 points, it seems hard to believe that this popular red Rose is also as 

 fragrant as blossom-time. See for yourself on a summer morning! 

 To be sure of that pleasure, plant one or more President Eisenhower 

 Roses this fall. $2.25 ea.; 3 or more, .$2 ea.
