Hybrid Tea. (Tantau.) Plant Pat. 

 2574. An excellent rose to cut and 

 bring into the house, where it will perfume a room until the petals 

 fall. Even in bad weather Fragrant Cloud gives forth a true rose 

 perfume, and is especially loved for this ability. And the color is 

 just as welcome — a bright coral-red that deepens to orange-red 

 as the flower opens. In the fall these orange tones are emphasized. 

 Buds are rich dark red, becoming high-pointed, double blooms of 

 perfect form, about 5 inches wide. They are set off by glossy dark 

 green leaves. 



The bush grows quite tall and very strong, with good big basal 

 shoots. It can stand a moderate amount of shade. 

 $4 ea. — 3 or more, $3.65 ea. 



MONTEZUMA 



Grandiflora. (Swim.) Plant Pat. 1383. 



Brilliant rosy salmon with a creamy 

 sheen, extremely smooth and melting, that spreads over the 

 whole flower. Buds are rather short, but shapely. Blooms 

 are high centered, made up of 40 petals, on strong stems. 

 Foliage is light green. 



A typical Grandiflora with its wonderful Hybrid Tea-like 

 blooms and plentiful supply of flowers. A tall plant, growing 

 up to 5 feet; it is bushy and well branched and needs ample 

 growing space. It will pay its way many times over with 

 strong, free growth, providing many blooms for beautifying 

 a garden and decorating indoors. 

 $3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.20 ea. 



CANDY STRIPE 



FRAGRANT CLOUD 



/y/1/? Hybrid Tea. (McCummings.) 

 Y* Plant Pat. 2278. Not freakish at 

 all, just a charming novelty — a rose-pink flower ir- 

 regularly slashed with streaks of lighter pink and off- 

 white for the length of the petals. And this pattern of 

 lighter streaks and flecks is different on the underside. 

 Each side of each petal is a different design, and some- 

 times there is an all-pink petal. 



Very full, 6-inch flowers on a tall plant. Their fra- 

 grance is quite pronounced and lasting. Free bloom- 

 ing, free growing, hardy and healthy. We like the 

 breezy informality of Candy Stripe and we think you 

 will too. 



$3.25 ea. — 3 or more, $3 ea.
