(above) Grandiflora. (Swim.) Plant 
Jo ILL Pat. 2056. A brilliant, deep, velvety- 
& red—the darkest red Grandiflora available for America’s 
A8B° cardens. The medium-short, solid, pointed buds open to a 
camellia-like bloom 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 
interesting contrast with the reddish cast of the new growth, and 
covers the plant well. 
$3.50 ea.—3 or more, $3.10 ea.

VIROOU, 35. This fine All-America Award winner i 
& a delightful gold, touched with flushes of pink and vermilion 
4&B° and a dash of copper. The bloom seems to actually gleam as 
the sun highlights the copper and gold. The bud is medium 
long, slender and well pointed. The dark rich copper tones are 
displayed prominently as the bud unfurls. The blooms are med- 
ium large, 4 to 5 inches across, with good substance and held 
firmly upright on strong stems. Has a rich intense fragrance. 
$2.75 ea.—3 or more, $2.40 ea. 
You seldom see a color as outstanding as this. It 
@ is bright, intense; and an orange-red, not deep but full of a 
’&° luminous quality. The color holds well, making Tropicana 
an unusually good cutting rose. Every cane bears one or more 
medium large, 414 to 5-inch flower each with a good strong 
fragrance. Notable, too, is the well-branched, well-shaped bush 
covered with substantial, shiny green foliage; decorative in its 
own right. This rose is a tall, but bushy grower with good vigor 
and disease-resistance. Tropicana is one of the most popular 
All-America Award Winners to come along in years. 
$3.50 ea.—3 or more, $3.10 ea.
