(above) Hybrid Tea. (The House of 

 Meilland.) Plant Pat. 2348. This is a 

 true, solid crimson-red rose, the color evenly laid, with no 

 other tones or shading. Its simplicity is striking and beauti- 

 ful. This is an exhibition-type rose . . . large, substantial, 

 well-formed and colorful. The medium-sized buds are tulip- 

 shaped and very full. Beautifully different from the ordi- 

 nary. They open slowly, forming large, substantial blooms 

 of 30 or more petals that flare out gracefully. The lovely 

 blooms are borne on sturdy canes, usually several to the 

 stem, but sometimes singly to allow you that special single 

 bloom for cutting. The plant grows medium to tall with 

 excellent vigor and is covered with rich, dark green foliage. 

 Fragrance is light, but pleasantly charming. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea.

 fu/Jf/um Pat. 1604. The excellent blend of rose-red and 

 cream, the large, well-formed blooms and long lasting 

 quality make Perfecta the kind of rose that just has to be- 

 come one of your favorites. The large, urn-shaped buds 

 open well, in most any kind of weather conditions, to a large 

 43^ to 5-inch bloom of good high-centered form. 



The thick, satiny texture of its 65 to 70 petals gives Per- 

 fecta different quality unmatched by any other rose. Blooms 

 come usually singly on medium long, strong stems; are very 

 long lasting, exceptionally so as a cut flower, and carry a 

 very good, old-fashioned tea fragrance. Foliage is large, 

 and a very leathery deep cress-green.

'^ 1360. Love Song is a bright creation of rich 

 watermelon pink on the inside of the petals and gleaming 

 yellow on the outside. This is a particularly colorful com- 

 bination, yet the combined colors are so compatible they 

 form a most exquisite blend of color. The huge buds have 

 excellent form and display the two-toned beauty boldly 

 in a clean, crisp manner. As many as 100 large petals form 

 a very double, well-shaped flower of excellent substance. 

 The exceptionally large and colorful blooms are carried on 

 long, upright stems. The plant is of medium vigor and 

 height, fairly floriferous and well covered with rich, waxy, 

 deep green foliage. This colorful rose has a good, rich fra- 

 grance to add to its many other attributes.
