 Plant Pat. 7028. A distinc- 

 (^^ tive and exquisite blend of apricot and shell- 

 '^^ pink makes Helen Traubel a soft, alluring 

 rose that's quite different from any other in your 

 garden. We believe this to be one of the very best 

 pink roses to receive the coveted All-America 

 Award, not only from a color standpoint but froin 

 an overall judgment of blooms, plant, foliage, 

 vigor and quantity of flowers. Helen Traubel 

 has excellent form and substance, both in bud and 

 bloom. The large medium long bud opens its 25 

 to 30 large, clean petals to a fine, high-centered 

 rose later becoming almost flat. Bloom is carried 

 on long, somewhat willowy stems. This is a very 

 fine garden rose because of the great amount of 

 bloom coming all season long. The plant is medium 

 tall and often grows as broad as tall. Plant it in 

 the front or middle of your rose bed and give it a 

 little extra room to grow. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea.

 Here is a rose which offers a very beautiful change of 

 pace for your garden. Suzon Lotthe's soft enticing 

 pearl-like sheens of cream-white shading into adelicate 

 pink make it an unusual rose for the garden or in an 

 arrangement. This is a voluptuous rose whose large, 

 very double blooms are composed of up to 90 petals 

 of exceptionally smooth texture with excellent form 

 and substance. The fat, medium long buds open 

 slowly to produce a long-lasting bloom. The plant 

 is heavy-caned, vigorous and disease-resistant. Fo- 

 liage is good; large, deep-green and covers the plant 

 well. There is also a light, delicious fragrance to 

 add to the overall charm and beauty of this excit- 

 ingly different rose. 



$2.50 ea.— 3 or more, $2.20 ea.

 rj Pat. 2056. A brilliant, deep, vel- 

 (^^ vety red — the darkest red Grandiflora available. The 

 medium short, solid, pointed buds open to camellia-like 

 blooms of 35 to 45 petals of the clearest, sparkling deep red. 

 Blooms come singly or in clusters, lasting long on the plant or 

 in a bouquet. The plant is quite strong, very shapely, upright 

 and free-branching. Dark glossy green foliage forms an inter- 

 esting contrast with the reddish cast of the new growth, and 

 covers the plant well.
