Five UNUSUAL COLORS to make your garden 



OKLAHOMA New for '65 



H.T. (Swim & Weeks) Plant Pat. 2326. This is an unusual as well as a very 

 beautiful rose. It is not black, but it is perhaps the nearest to black you've seen 

 in a fine rose. It is so dark you could almost describe it as black-red. The flowers 

 are enormous, with 45 to 55 petals, each velvety and of outstanding heavy sub- 

 stance. The bud high centered and well shaped, is at its best as it slowly and 

 gracefully unfolds to about one-third to one-half open. The full open flower is 

 of superb exhibition form and keeps for many days both on the plant and when 

 cut. Oklahoma, inheriting fragrance from both its parents — Chrysler Imperial 

 and Charles Mallerin — has an almost intoxicating perfume, a thrilling rose 

 bouquet. The plant is medium tall, well branched, and covers itself with heavy, 

 glossy green foliage. The long, sturdy stems produce superb single blooms in 



abundance from spring through fall. Be sure to plant Oklahoma, for 



real enjoyment. $3 ea. ; 3 or more, $2.65 ea. 



GRANADA 



H.T. (Lindquist) Plant Pat. 2214. 

 '* Last year's All-America Winner 

 with a Spanish name, the 

 gaiety of bright Spanish 

 colors, and even the spice 

 of Spain in its fragrance. 

 Granada will bring your 

 garden the glamour of far- 

 away places. It's a bi-color 

 rose, brightly fluorescent in 

 varying shades of scarlet, 

 nasturtium-red and gleam- 

 ing lemon-yellow. The long, 

 urn-shaped buds and 

 graceful blooms come 

 abundantly on strong 



individual stems. The 

 plant is medium tall, 

 vigorous, grows up- 

 right and features the 

 beauty of dark green, 

 holly-likc foliage. It's 

 a beauty. $3.50 ea. ; 

 3 or more, $3.10 ea. 



SUMMER SUNSHINE 



H.T. Plant Pat. 2078. Good yellow roses 

 are always in demand by rose gardeners 

 from coast to coast. Summer Sunshine is 

 one of the best yellows introduced in recent 

 years. It's big and bold, and solid. Its 

 color is richly, brilliantly yellow. It gleams 

 with light. And this is a plant that will 

 "bloom its head ofl," so to speak. It is 

 almost always in bloom, and when you look 

 out across a bed of Summer Sunshine the 

 plants form a straight strip of solid gold. 

 Its rich golden color will qualify it for 

 Queen of the Show honors. The strong, 

 vigorous, semi-upright plant is medium tall, 

 well branched and attractive. This rose 

 also has nice fragrance. You will show 

 Summer Sunshine enthusiastically to your 

 rose-grower friends. $3.50 ea. ; 3 or more, 

 $3.10 ea.
