NEW ROTARY DUSTER .. . Handiest, Easiest-to-Use We've Ever Seen! 
It’s easy to get enthusiastic about this little gem of a duster because it does such a 
fine job so quickly, so easily, so efficiently! You just lift the lid, fill with dust, aim the 
nozzle and turn the smooth-working handle. One filling with Star Rose Dust will care 
for 50 or more rose plants. The stream of dust will reach plants as far away 
from you as 8 feet. Before listing this item in our catalog, we had our own 
gardeners try it. They liked it so much, they didn’t want to give it up! 
Here are some of the reasons why they think it’s so terrific for you—the 
home rose gardener. It’s light in weight. Made of aluminum, it weighs 
only a fraction more than one pound. Compare this with your present duster. 
IT’S STRONG. Built so well and of strong material, this mighty mite is 
designed to last a lifetime. It’s easy to handle. The comfortable pistol 
grip and the light weight let you do your dusting more easily than ever. The 
handle turns smoothly and with little effort on your part be- 
cause of the powerful gears which do the work. It’s conven- 
ient. No other duster that we know of is as handy as this 
one—to fill it is simple and quick—nothing to unscrew. It 
is always ready—and able—to do its job. When you think 
that this duster is built to last, and that it is so easy and 
efficient to use, you wish someone had told you about it be- 
fore. Here’s your chance to own one now. Only $8.95 ppd.

NEW PLANTS from Star Roses for 1960 
The fascination of things new leads us all to fresh 
interests in life, and adds to the wealth of everyday living. 
In the wonderful world of plants, new varieties help to 
stimulate in us a better realization of Nature’s dominion 
and how it can make our lives happier. As we see a new 
plant for the first time, we cannot help but wonder at the 
infinite variety of plant life and beauty. Here at Star 
Roses, we are always excited when we can provide for our 
customers new kinds of Roses, Mums or other plants. 
We work to that end in the realization that service to you 
includes a progressive attitude. Our own pleasure is, 
of course, two-fold; for we enjoy first the discovery and 
testing of the new varieties (we search the world for them), 
NEW STAR ROSES 
* FIRE KING. An All-America Winner for 1960, 
this Floribunda combines flashing beauty with long-lasting 
quality to give you plenty of pleasure. It was originated 
by the great Irench hybridizer, Meilland. See it on 
pages 20 and 40. 
* SARABANDE. Also an All-America Winner for 1960 
and another Floribunda, this one comes to your garden 
with a long list of medals and awards already won in 
European countries—5 of them! It, too, is a Meilland 
creation. See it on pages 3 and 21. 
GOLDEN GIRL. We think this is the best yellow Grandi- 
flora ever created! It’s a Meilland rose, and has many 
exceptional qualities. Read all about it on page 2, but 
“rst take a long look at Golden Girl’s beauty on the 
ver. It also appears on page 24. 
*ROYAL VELVET. Still another Meilland rose—this 
time a gorgeous, big ruby-red Hybrid Tea. It’s on page 9. 
The bloom is almost beyond belief in this color. The 
picture only approximates it. 
%x GARDEN PARTY. Another All-America Winner 
for 1960—this time the proud creation of Herbert Swim, 
the American hybridizer. On page 3, you will see it— 
and like it; for it is beautiful as well as a fine grower.

we are really happy to list our new offerings for 1960 
gardens. Among the roses are three All-America Winners 
for this year—Sarabande, Fire King and Garden Party — 
a new and very fine Grandiflora, and a new Hybrid Tea 
with rare beauty. All three of our new Mum varieties 
this year are All-America Winners. Elsewhere in this 
catalog, all these new plants are pictured and described. 
Here, we merely bring them to your notice. 
THE NEW ALL-AMERICA MUMS

petition are exceptionally fine in every way; and together 
with those which took honors last year and the year

colors for fall appreciation in your garden. All are shown 
and described on pages 36 and 37. The winners for 1960 
are:

ting from this fine new Mum.
