• CONFIDENCE. H.T. (Meilland.) Plant 

 Pat. 1 192. (See also on page 16.) This is a noble 

 new H.T. from the originator of Peace. It is a 

 peach-toned pastel Rose, a delicious blend of 

 bright, light tints, rather like fresh peach ice 

 cream, with its yellow, white and peach-pink 

 colors melting one into the other. Its form is also 

 notable, with long streamlined buds opening to 

 great trumpets of bloom, the outer petals rolling 

 back in a wide ruff about its long, closed center. 

 28 to 38 petals; opening buds 2 to 3 inches long 

 and full blooms up to 6 inches across. Richly 

 fragrant. 



Confidence has a good, sound plant; upright, 

 but stoutly broad and well branched, 3 to 4 feet 

 tall. New growth comes fast with many shoots, 

 producing a lot of rebloom quickly. It won both 

 Bagatelle and "Most Beautiful Rose of France" 

 award in 1951, the second Rose ever to take both 

 honors. $2 ea.; 3 or more, $1.75 ea. 



• BLANCHE MALLERIN. H.T. (Mallerin.) 

 Plant Pat. 594. We have yet to find a white Rose 

 to equal Blanche Mallerin in artistic beauty. 

 First of all, it is pure white, in both bud and 

 bloom: a gleaming, live, frosty white. Next, is its 

 great superiority in form, with long, long buds 

 and beautifully modeled blooms. Its crowning 

 grace is its fragrance, since perfume is a rare 

 attribute of white Roses. Buds come singly and 

 erect on upright plants of medium height. 

 30 to 35 petals. By far the most popular white 

 Rose offered. $2 ea. ; 3 or more, $1.75 ea.
