CREAM OF 



The biggest advantage of Roses is that they keep on 

 blooming. Other flowers come and go by, all too quickly, 

 but as you cut Roses, more will keep coming until hard 

 frost. Another big advantage of Roses is their infinite 

 variety. Each one has its own special beauty, its own 

 "personality" to delight you. There is no limit to the 

 enjoyment of Roses and Hybrid Tea plants never outgrow 

 their welcome.

• HAPPINESS. H.T. (Meilland.) Plant Pat. 

 911. A brilliant, blazing red. Its petals are firm 

 and heavy, like highly polished, rich red leather. 

 The flowers age to crimson-carmine or royal rose- 

 red but do not blue. Of distinguished form, with 

 solid, pointed centers. It is a popular florist's 

 Rose; garden blooms, from mature plants, seem to 

 be as good or even better. 35 to 40 petals. $2 ea. ; 

 3 or more, $1.75 ea. 



* HELEN TRAUBEL. H.T. (Swim.) Plant Pat. 1028. 

 Here is a dainty, Dresden-china beauty of a Rose in its 

 delicate and lovely coloring, with a size and form that 

 ^^ is sheer elegance. Its one fault is that the blooms are 

 sometimes larger than the stem can hold upright. This is 

 easily forgiven, however, when one sees the length of the 

 lovely buds and the magnificence of the plants. 



Buds and blooms are clear tints of apricot and porcelain- 

 pink. Buds are very long and slender; blooms have about 27 

 heavy two-toned petals, the inside pink, the outside flushed 

 apricot. Plants are superbly tall and vigorous with big, sturdy, 

 long canes that produce a lot of bloom all season. $2.50 ea. ; 

 3 or more, $2.20 ea.
