TO DELIGHT 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) Plant Pat. 

 2986. This Star introduction is a fragrant rose with a 

 "lady-like" air that is softly appealing. Its fresh, luminous salmon- 

 pink color is gentler on the outside of the petals and warmer inside. 

 And this good color lasts until the petals fall. 



Buds are very long, with 30 to 35 extra broad petals, arranged to 

 form a nicely double flower — full but not heavy. Blooms as much 

 as 5 inches across are borne one to a stem, and sometimes several 

 appear on a strong cane. Growth starts with great vigor early in 

 the growing season, followed soon by a profusion of buds. By the 

 end of the summer the plant has reached a height of 3J^ feet and 

 has produced dozens of lovely, softly tinted clear pink blooms. 

 $4 ea. — 3 or more, $3.65 ea.

COLORAMA 



LADY X 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) 

 Plant Pat. 2691 . The soft lavender color 

 of Lady X is very delicate. It appeals strongly to 

 those who like lavender roses . . . and even those 

 who "don't care for" these new colors can rarely 

 resist Lady X. Its exquisite, well-modeled form and 

 lasting ability often put it among the blue-ribbon 

 winners at shows. And in the garden too it gives a 

 wonderful account of itself ... a tall grower and 

 heavy producer. Perfect for cutting, lightly perfumed. 

 $3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.20 ea. 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meil- 

 land.) Plant Pat. 2862. To catch this 

 flower at its best, you should see a bloom two-thirds 

 open, with the light shining through it. It's a picture 

 you won't soon forget. The big ruffly blooms are 

 watermelon-pink with warm yellow at the base and 

 on the reverse (perhaps lighter than our picture 

 shows). This vivid contrast lasts for the entire life 

 of the flower. Open blooms are loosely cupped, with 

 40 to 50 large petals and light tea perfume. 



Medium to tall in growth, with foliage bright and 

 waxy. Bears repeated crops of gaily colored blooms. 

 $3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.20 ea.
