MIRANDY 



Hybrid Tea. (Lammerts.) At the height of its perfection 

 this rose has universal appeal. The huge ovoid buds are 

 borrTe on long stems on a robust bush growing about 23^ feet tall. 

 "^ Flowers are a marvel — fully packed with 50 or more velvety, deep 

 wine-red petals that have a mysterious dusky tone. The color tends 

 toward crimson rather than scarlet. The blooms are both broad and 

 deep, with a very high center that opens slowly. Mirandy's rich spicy 

 perfume is unusually stirring — in fact, once you becoine acquainted with 

 this wonderful rose, you will be able to identify it by its fragrance. This 

 is a sturdy plant with leathery foliage. The blooms open best in hot 

 weather, and for this reason Mirandy is especially popular in southern 

 areas. An All-America Winner that has been building its reputation for 

 over twenty years, both in home gardens and at rose shows where it has 

 won countless awards. 



$2.25 ea. — 3 or more, $2 ea. 



Hybrid Tea. (Mallerin.) Blanche Mallerin 

 is a pure white whose long, urn-shaped bud 

 is the classic example of what a Hybrid Tea bud should be. This is a 

 rose worth having just for its exquisite buds. Yet the open bloom, too, 

 is majestic beauty in its own right. Buds open beautifully to model 

 flowers of pure satiny white . . . 4J^2 inches across and of superb form 

 and substance. The plant is bushy, well branched and quite upright in 

 habit, with good, heavy canes. Foliage is medium size, leathery, cedar- 

 green. Moderate, extremely sweet fragrance. This is one of the easiest 

 white roses to grow and deserves a place in any garden. You will not be 

 satisfied to leave it in the garden, though . . . you will often invite these 

 fragrant, snowy, gracefully formed blooms to dinner, to serve as a 

 centerpiece. 



$2.25 ea. — 3 or more, $2 ea. 



WHAT ARE 

 EVERBLOOMERS? 



Everblooming roses will flow- 

 er almost continuously from 

 mid-spring until hard frost. 

 Roses bloom in waves or cycles, 

 the first bloom coming with 

 spectacular show all at one 

 time. As this wave passes you will have fewer 

 flowers, then a second full bloom four to six 

 weeks later. This cycle is repeated over and 

 over through the growing season. Only with 

 roses can you be assured of beautiful flowers in 

 your garden continuously from spring to frost 

 year after year; no other plant has such a 

 long seasQn of bloom. All roses in this catalog 

 are everblooming unless otherwise noted.
