IVERY FANCY 



Grandiflora. (The House of Meilland.) 

 fWff/f'// (ff/f Plant Pat. 1912. A fine yellow rose that 

 blooms and blooms. The deep gold color looks as if it had been 

 poured down into the center of the flower, to spill out over the 

 soft ivory outer petals. Long slim buds with graceful sepals and 

 magnificent double flowers produced in great quantity from 

 early summer to frost. Blooms have moderate tea fragrance 

 and stems are long enough for cutting. The plant is upright, 

 shapely, well branched and vigorous, with soft-textured, clean 

 light green leaves. We rate Golden Girl as one of the very best 

 of the pure yellows. 



$3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.10 ea. 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) 

 '#l/(/ Plant Pat. 1759. A beautiful rich dusky pink 

 with a shimmer and glow that gives a soft highlight to the 

 flower. This is a strong color but not a harsh or overpowering 

 one. Although individual flowers are not so large as those of 

 Peace, they are fully double and high centered, with broad firm 

 petals. Fragrance is strong and pleasing. All these fine qual- 

 ities make Pink Peace a favorite for cutting. The plant is very 

 strong and bushy, with large, rather dark, abundant leaves 

 and thick flower stems. 



An excellent choice for the back row of a planting because 

 of its extra size and vigor. Give it plenty of room. 

 $3.50 ea.— 3 or more, $3.10 ea.

SCARLET KNIGHT 



Grandiflora. (The 



House of Meilland.) 

 /^S| Plant Pat. 2692. A splendid scarlet-crimson 

 ^& Grandiflora that we recommend for any 

 garden. Each separate flower is big and bright, 

 and it is usual for a stem to carry several of 

 these beauties. 



Buds are deep red, of nice tapering form, 

 with velvety, rounded petals. As the bloom 

 opens, it becomes bright scarlet, and this vibrant 

 color holds without fading or turning blue. 

 The big, vigorous canes are covered with thick, 

 rich green leaves that frame the blooms to per- 

 fection. Good stems bear the mildly tea-scented 

 flowers, and bloom production continues well 

 all season. Generally the blooms are borne in 

 clusters of five or so, but those that come singly 

 on a stem are fine for cutting. Medium height, 

 vigorous and upright. 



$3.75 ea. — 3 or more, $3.30 ea.
