Every One 



Grandiflora. (Swim & Weeks.) 

 Plant Pat. 2371. A luminous 

 /^^ coral-pink rose with a special shimmering 

 ^«^^ beauty all its own. It comes so close to the 

 ideal of most gardeners that it earns the right 

 to be named for the land of perfection — Camelot. 

 The soft but lively coral-pink color is light and 

 gay, with a little patch of white at the base of the 

 petals to give the center of the flower a pleasant 

 touch. These are good-sized flowers with rich 

 spicy fragrance. They have the popular high 

 pointed center at first, and become more cupped 

 as they open. Usually three or more flowers are 

 carried on one strong stem. They last well, and 

 the plant bears them repeatedly through the sum- 

 mer. A tall Grandiflora, growing quite broad 

 as well, and covered with shining, dark green 

 leaves. Easy to grow, and a rose you will love 

 and treasure for years. 



$3.50 ea. — 3 or more, S3. 10 ea. 



The 



Symbol 



points out the varieties which are 

 winners of the AU-Ainerica Award. 

 This is a true mark of distinction earned 

 by new roses after they have been 

 thoroughly tested for two years. Test 

 gardens have been set up in 24 areas of 

 the United States with varying climate 

 and growing conditions — from Hart- 

 ford, Conn, to Seattle, Wash. Here the 

 new roses are grown (without name or 

 grower's identification) and rated by impartial judges 

 for two years. Those that come up to AAR.S standards 

 arc given awards and publicized so that you, the 

 buyer, can see which roses are likely to do best for you. 

 For 1970 there is only one new AARS rose (First 

 Prize — sec page 2), but inany additional ones from 

 earlier vcars are still as fine as ever. 



fl/l// 'J //////// J J/H'(' Hybrid Tea. (Swim & Weeks.) 

 /fiy/^af //nj ////(■)') pi^^^, p^^ 2032. One of the 



(^^ nicest and inost surprising features of this lovely 

 ^^' pastel rose is its strong tea rose fragrance. The 

 bloom is extra large, with thick, soft petals like satin. 

 They are so glossy you can hardly believe they are real. 

 The excjuisite color is the softest baby pink, with warmer 

 pink tones showing in the heart of the flower. Its perfect 

 form, with high center, is another characteristic that 

 makes Royal Highness almost too good to be true. Even 

 in bad weather this rose will open easily. It has long 

 stiff stems that are perfect for cutting . . . and of course 

 you will want to bring it indoors where you can drink 

 in its delicate beauty. The well-rounded plant is orna- 

 mental in itself, with rich dark leaves. 

 $3.50 ea. — 3 or more, $3.10 ea.
