(right) Hybrid Tea. (The House of 

 Meilland.) Plant Pat. 2141. One 

 of the most eye-catching colors ever introduced ... a 

 smoky orange-scarlet, flame-like and irresistibly at- 

 tractive. Orange Flame's big, well-pointed, smoldering 

 buds open to very large, very high-centered blooms v^^ith 

 large petals of good substance flaring outward in fine 

 rose form. Bloom comes regularly and consistently; 

 usually one to the long stem, excellent for cutting. 

 Orange Flame is a strong, upright grower with many 

 branches and good medium heavy canes. Large, glossy 

 foliage of rich green adds appeal and good balance. 

 Fragrance is strong and pleasing. This strikingly dif- 

 erent rose with its exceptional form and color will be an 

 outstanding addition to your garden. 



$2.75 ea.— 3 or more, $2.40 ea.

 2349. This rose has an inviting, deep, cool 

 pink color which keeps its freshness even on 

 the hottest days. The beauty of deep pink or 

 light red buds opening to an appealing, deep, 

 cool pink is further enhanced because Garden 

 State grows tall enough to show them oflT. 

 The bud is classic and opens well, bursting 

 into a large, solid bloom with 35 to 45 big 

 petals of firm texture. V'ery strong, thick 

 canes carry the blooms usually one to the 

 long stem, but sometimes in candelabras of 

 several. Foliage is a deep, glossy green, very 

 thick and luxuriant. Fragrance is a light 

 tea. Garden State should be planted in the 

 "back row," however, where its impressive 

 stature will not overshadow other kinds. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea.

 Meilland.) Plant Pat. 1359. The 

 ^ first white Hybrid Tea All-America Winner . . . 

 a clean, pure white rose that does not fade. White 

 Knight gives you classic, exhibition type bud and bloom 

 of exceptional quality. The perfectly shaped buds open 

 to large, satiny white blooms up to 5 inches across, 

 coming usually singly on strong stems. It is an excellent 

 rose for cutting — the form and substance of the buds and 

 blooms hold well in the garden or in an arrangement. 

 The plant has moderate vigor and good disease-resistance 

 and grows to about 3 feet in height. To appreciate its 

 elegance, plant White Knight in the front or middle of 

 the garden.
