exquisite beauties; 



Hybrid Tea. (Lam- 

 merts.) Plant Pat. 

 1167. No matter how many new red roses 

 come on the market, this one stays. Its won- 

 derful deep crimson-red color and richly satisfying 

 fragrance guarantee its popularity. The full, solid 

 buds become large blooms with 40 to 50 huge 

 petals. Flowers are just about perfect . . . high 

 centered, with an interesting curl to the outer 

 petals . . . and usually borne one to a stem. 



An outstanding rose for cutting, with many 

 years of proven ability to please. As a standard 

 red for any garden it is hard to beat, or even equal. 

 The bush is strong, of medium height. Plenty 

 of vigorous, dark green foliage provides a most 

 effective setting for a most glamorous rose. 

 $3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.10 ea. 



Hybrid Tea. 



(Lammerts.) 

 Plant Pat. 2687. A succession of changing 

 LS colors makes American Heritage a fascinat- 

 ing rose to watch . . . another of those soft, shift- 

 ing color combinations impossible to pin down on 

 a printed page in either word or picture. At var- 

 ious times and in different kinds of weather the 

 colors can vary considerably, but always they are 

 dainty and appealing. As it opens, the bud is urn 

 shaped with sulphur-yellow at the base of the 

 petals that gently becomes camellia-rose at the 

 petal edges. The fully open bloom is cream to 

 light canary-yellow, and as it ages, the rose color 

 at the petal margin deepens. Blooms are com- 

 posed of about 50 to 60 petals. The tall plant has 

 heavy canes that grow upward. 



$3.75 ea. — 3 or more, $3.30 ea.

CHRYSLER IMPERIAL 



Hybrid Tea. (Tantau.) Plant Pat. 1969. "Too 

 good to be real" is a common reaction to this 

 rose. It was first introduced in Europe a few years ago, and 

 1S already has become a classic. There it is also known as 

 Super Star, and we certainly agree that it is super. Its bright 

 orange-red is intense but not too deep and is full of a luminosity 

 that makes it come alive. "Fluorescent" is not too strong a word 

 to apply. This rich color holds exceedingly well, too, even in the 

 hottest sun. 



The medium large, 4}^ to 5-inch, double blooms have good 

 strong fragrance, and the long, elegantly shaped buds are always 

 attention getters. The tall, bushy, well-shaped plant is covered 

 with shiny green foliage. Healthy, hardy, easy to grow and a 

 continual producer all season long. 

 $3.75 ea.— 3 or more, $3.30 ea.
