(below) Hybrid Tea. (Swim & Weeks.) 

 Plant Pat. 2370. Wc believe this to 



/fife be the finest red rose of all time. Strong, vibrant and 

 **^ s beautiful, Mister Lincoln produces masses of deep, 

 velvety-red blooms, 6 inches wide, that stand tall on the 

 plant and are very pleasing. The bud is long, full and well- 

 pointed, becoming urn-shaped as the petals begin to curl 

 back from their high centers. The flowers are ideal for 

 cutting — long-stemmed beauties that hold their form and 

 color well and look especially brilliant in a bouquet even 

 under artificial lighting. With heavy, well-branched, long 

 canes, Mister Lincoln, used as a plant standing alone or 

 placed in the "back row," lifts your garden to new heights 

 of beauty. Large, glossy, dark green leaves are tailor-made 

 for this very vigorous plant.

(below) Grandiflora. (Swim & Weeks.) 

 vovu/ Plant Pat. 2132. Here is a big, strong, 

 wonderful white rose . The first and the best white Grandi- 

 flora. Enormous, long-pointed, gleaming white buds stand 

 tall on their very long, strong stems. The huge, high- 

 centered flowers are equally dramatic with their big, 

 snow-white petals curling outward in a majestic fashion. 

 Along with the large blooms, this rose has unusually good 

 substance, form and holding qualities. The upright bloom 

 and exceptionally long stems offer fine roses for cutting. 

 Mount Shasta will not give you an over abundance of 

 bloom at any one time, but bloom is continuous all season 

 long and the quality is extraordinary. Mount Shasta is a 

 very tall rose with good vigor. Solid, heavy canes hold the 

 big blooms upright under all conditions. Foliage is large, 

 in keeping with the big plant and blooms. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea.
