WAR DANCE 
Lady Elgin _ 
H.T. (Meilland) Plant Pat. 1469. 
The brilliance of this apricot and 
orange combination—a kind of red 
or jeweler’s gold—is admired by 
everyone who has ever seen it. It 
is amazingly beautiful, rich and 
exciting. This color remains 
throughout the life of the flower. 
Huge, handsome blooms come on 
long stems, which means good cut- 
ting for the house. The petals, 35 
to 48 in number, are large and form 
substantial blossoms; and the bud, 
like the bloom, has excellent form. 
Lady Elgin’s plant is sturdy, tall- 
growing, upright and vigorous. The 
foliage is lustrous green. This fabu- 
lous beauty possesses another won- 
derful asset . . . it is delightfully 
fragrant. All-in-all, Lady Elgin 
provides for the gardener out- 
standing qualities, not least of 
which is fabulously brilliant color. 
$2.50 ea.; 3 or more, $2.20 ea.

War Danee 
GR. (Swim & Weeks) Plant Pat. 
2017. Have you ever seen a hotter 
red color—a color that blazes with 
inner vitality? This is doubtless due 
to the brilliance of the orange which 
is so thoroughly mixed in with the 
scarlet. War Dance will never be © 
overlooked, no matter where you 
put it. You'll have high-centered, 
double flowers with from 28 to 40 
petals, one or several of them to the 
stem, and each a good 41% inches 
across. The petals are perfectly 
aligned and the bloom a model of 
attractiveness. It is at its marvel- 
ous best when half open, and then 
on to the full flower. The bush is a 
vigorous one, producing heavy 
canes, many branches and a wealth 
of deep green leaves. Regardless of 
weather, the color of the bright 
blooms is pure-toned clear through 
—a quality which all red roses do 
not have. $2.75 ea.; 3 or more, 
$2.40 ea.
