APOLLO 
Apollo 
” Hybrid Tea. (Armstrong.) A fine yellow rose that won an All-America 
Award in 1972. As growers get acquainted with it, more and more are 
giving it a rating of Excellent. In both size and form it is a most pleasing 
bloom, sometimes of exhibition calibre. The clear soft yellow color is a wel- 
come addition to any garden. 
Flowers are double, 4 to 442 inches across, rather informal in type. The 
color is uniform in both the bud and open bloom. The bush is very tall and 
well branched, with fresh green, leathery leaves. In vigor and height it could 
almost pass for a Grandiflora. Extremely free blooming. Plant Pat. 3322. 
$4.90 ea.—3 or more, $4.60 ea. 
Swarthmore 
Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) A handsome two-toned deep pink rose 
with a bold, high center. This astonishingly firm center lasts and lasts—so 
long, in fact, that it is unusual to see a flower opened wide. The large, long 
bud shows two tones of smooth, deep clear rose-red, often edged darker. Quite 
distinctive both in the garden and on the show table. Lightly perfumed... a 
treat to be enjoyed all summer. 
This superb cutting rose lasts for days. The plant is tall, upright, bushy and 
well proportioned. Large, leathery, ivy-green leaves cover the long canes com- 
pletely. A must if you're after blue ribbons at the rose shows. Plant Pat. 2444. 
$3.90 ea.—3 or more, $3.65 ea.
