Twice Blessed with Fragrance 



w 



CRIMSON GLORY 



Hybrid Tea. (Kordes.) Lovely velvety crimson, 

 '^'f.y pointed buds open to double blooms of good substance. 

 By today's standards they are not extra large, but their rich Damask fragrance 

 has made this rose a byword. Crimson Glory blooms freely and continuously 

 on a very strong but lov^^-growing plant with many branches. Excellent for 

 the front row of a planting. Its only fault is the stems tend to droop a little. 

 Foliage is large, clean dark green. An older rose that enjoys a tremendous 

 reputation, even today, for its beauty, color and heavy fragrance. Planted for 

 its perfume alone, it is worthwhile but you will love its warm velvety color too. 

 Completely dependable, is the judgment of rose growers for 35 years.

Hybrid Tea. (Swim.) Delightful gold touched with 

 flushes of pink and vermilion and a dash of copper, with 

 /^^ noticeable veining. A lively, 4 to 5-inch rose that gleams as the sun high- 

 A^s ijg]^^5 (i^g copper and gold. The medium long bud is slender, well 

 pointed and very beautiful. As it gradually unfurls, the full glory of the bloom 

 is revealed but its one fault is that the blooms are somewhat short lived. With 

 its rich fruity fragrance this is an immensely rewarding rose. The sturdy plant 

 grows to a height of about 3 feet, is bushy but upright. Its large, glossy green 

 leaves are very attractive. Sutter's Gold is the winner of the Gamble Fragrance 

 Award.

Hybrid Tea. (Howard.) Here is an older rose that has 

 long been treasured for its extremely large blooms of 

 show quality. It was introduced over 30 years ago, as a compliment to Dr. J. 

 Horace McFarland, America's dean of rose growers, and ever since then has 

 won countless prizes including the Gold Medal of the National Rose Society 

 of England. In color it is a lovely satiny pink, with a soft glow. It has long buds 

 and blooms as much as 6 inches in diameter, of perfect form and firm substance. 

 And besides, it is very fragrant. The plant is rather low growing and bloom 

 is not over-abundant. However, the flowers that do come are of exciting 

 exhibition caliber.

Hybrid Tea. (Swim.) The illustration shows the exquisite 

 form of Nocturne's bud, and also gives you an idea of its very 

 */^fej deep, rich red color — but what the printed page is incapable of conveying 

 ^^^ is the enticing fragrance. All these qualities have kept this rose on the 

 \ list of favorites for years. It is known and loved by gardeners everywhere and 

 gives a good performance even in the hottest weather. Flowers are about 4 

 inches across, with petals that flare out nicely to form a fine open bloom. The 

 deep red color is overlaid with darker shadings that give the bloom an almost 

 brooding look. Rugged and quite tall, with leathery, dark leaves.
