Star Roses Are Grown In The 

 Ideal Geographic Location 



The Star Rose growing fields, over 600 acres 

 of them, are located in the Southeast corner 

 i of Pennsylvania . . . just far enough south 

 to gain those few weeks of extra growing 

 time to produce a superb plant and just far 

 enough north to get the early frost required 



to "harden-off" the plant in time to harvest it at 



its peak maturity and vigor. 



All of which means that: 



1. You get as nearly perfect a rose plant as possible 

 because it is grown by professionals, grown in an 

 ideal climate, and grown in the right kind of soil. 

 Your plants are shipped fresh, direct from the 

 nursery in West Grove, Pa., in prime condition and 

 ready to grow. 



And, in fact, it's because of these reasons that we 

 can make our famous Star Rose "Unconditional Guar- 

 antee." See pages 11, 16, 27.

LADY X 



r 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) 

 Plant Pat. 2697. At last, a strong-growing 

 lavender ! A beautiful lavender rose with excellent 

 form; classic bud and bloom. Lady X is an exciting 

 new color in roses — soft, cool pink-lavender, ever-so- 

 lightly brushed with polished silver. It's this fresh new 

 color and exquisite form that makes this new lavender 

 rose so exceptional. Even though the color is so deli- 

 cately beautiful, it holds well, making Lady X a fine 

 cutting rose. The "high fashion" stylish bud is long 

 and slender, opening slowly into a double high-cen- 

 tered bloom. A very tall, shapely, well-branched, 

 vigorous plant makes Lady X a "back row" display 

 rose. Thorns are scarce and heavy green foliage is 

 perfect for the height of the rose and complements its 

 lovely color.
