"All plants and flowers are of 

 great interest but none can equal 

 the joy one receives from roses. 

 They are a source of beauty 

 throughout the entire summer."

(Not illustrated.) Hybrid Tea. (The House of 

 Meilland.) Plant Pat. 1469. Lovely butter- 

 scotch colors in a delicious blend. Buds are a subdued orange on 

 the outside. As they slowly unfurl they show a soft orange-gold 

 on the upper side of the petals, with a hint of red. This distinctive 

 color lasts for the whole life of the flower. Buds are nicely shaped 

 and blooms are big and firm, with 35 to 45 broad petals. 



This plant grows strong and upright. Its long sturdy canes are 

 covered with sea-green foliage that highlights the rich blooms. 

 There is a lovely subtle perfume too. Lady Elgin is perfect for 

 cutting and has won many a prize at rose shows. You can have 

 your own show — outdoors or in — with this exciting beauty. 

 $3.25 ea. — 3 or more, $3 ea.

Grandiflora. (Swim.) 

 Plant Pat. 1383. This 

 brilliant rosy salmon color has 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, and are 

 borne on medium long, strong stems. The 

 medium sized foliage is a semi-glossy light 

 green. 



This is a tall rose, growing up to 5 feet; 

 it is bushy and well branched, and needs 

 ample growing space. It is a typical Grandi- 

 flora with its wonderful Hybrid Tea-like 

 blooms and plentiful supply of flowers. It 

 will pay its way many times over with 

 strong, free growth, providing many blooms 

 for beautifying a garden and for decorating 

 indoors. You won't go wrong by planting 

 Montezuma.

SINCERA 



Hybrid Tea. (Camprubi.) Plant Pat. 2055. One of 

 the best all-round white Hybrid Teas of today, 

 which we recommend to all those who love a white flower. The 

 blooms are unique, but the cool crisp beauty of this lovely rose 

 is difficult to capture in an illustration. Buds are medium long 

 and pointed, opening to flowers of moderate size but extra fullness 

 (55 to 65 petals). The center is beautifully furled and retains this 

 shape well. The soft satiny white color is warmed by primrose- 

 yellow tints at the base of the petals, giving it a glow from within. 

 Stems are strong and the flowers never droop. They can stand 

 unfavorable weather without balling. A steady producer until 

 late fall — vigorous, broad but upright — with heavy canes. 

 $3.25 ea. — 3 or more, $3 ea.
