Plant Pat. 1119. New. Buttercup- 
yellow buds and blooms on fast-grow- 
ing, upright, extra-tall plants. Here, 
they grow to 5 feet in height, wonderful 
as back-row and accent plants, and for 
cutting. The buds are long, sleek and 
dapper, the blooms cupped, with about 30 petals and 
light, very sweet fragrance. Reddish stems and 
healthy, dark green foliage show off to advantage 
the bright gold of the flowers, which come with 
swaggering abundance. The 1952 Gold Medal winner 
at Geneva, Switzerland. $2.75 ea.; 3 or more, 
$2.40 ea.

Plant Pat. 933. This is a gorgeous new Rose, with 
buds and blooms of midnight crimson velvet, the 
“blackest”’ big red Rose to date. It does not blue. 
Its form, as well as its coloring, is exciting, with 
30 or 40 petals, broad and heavy, and a high, cone- 
shaped, handsome center. It is richly, gloriously 
fragrant. The plant is vigorous and tends to throw 
some extra-tall blooming canes without much regard 
for symmetry, at times. Good, disease- 
resistant foliage. Those who have been 
testing It report that it is unusually d 
resistant to black-spot and mildew. 
A truly thrilling new Rose. $2.50 ea.; 4
