KING'S RANSOM 



Hybrid Tea. (Morey.) Plant Pat. 2103. 



Splendid, gleaming golden yellow 

 (^^ blooms suggested the name for this big lively rose. The 

 ^^^ tightly curled, medium long buds develop into 5-inch, fully 

 double, golden flowers that show excellent form with delightful 

 high centers. The 40 to 50-petaled blooms come singly on long 

 stems, perfect for cutting and arranging. The plant is medium 

 tall, with good strong heavy canes. Its leathery leaves are a 

 shiny green on the upper side and a satiny, darker green on the 

 underside. King's Ransom has a nice lingering fragrance to add 

 to its many other good qualities. Highly recommended for every 

 garden, for it keeps blooming all through the season and always 

 makes a wonderful appearance. The bright flowers decorate the 

 plant in fine style. Their extra long stems will make you reach 

 for the shears so that you can bring some of them indoors. 

 $3.75 ea. — 3 or more, $3.30 ea.

$15.90 



Hybrid Tea. (Lindquist.) Plant Pat. 1304. Tiffany 

 is every bit as elegant as its name suggests, with 



long buds and double flowers up to 5 inches in diameter. 



It is a dramatic blending of light pink and pale gold with 

 exquisitely formed buds, very high-pointed blooms and 25 to 30 

 flared petals. Flowers are almost always borne singly on the long 

 stiff stems and are not affected by either hot or wet weather. A 

 cutting rose par excellence, it always claims full attention, for 

 besides its attractive color it has tea rose perfume that literally 

 fills a room. Its ability to hold its shape and delicate color is 

 appreciated both in the garden and when it is used in arrange- 

 ments. The plant is medium tall and very free blooming, with 

 plentiful light green foliage. Tiffany is highly thought of by 

 everyone who knows this wonderful Hybrid Tea. 



$3.25 ea. — 3 or more, $3 ea.
