LADY ELGIN 
Garden State 
Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) Plant Pat. 2349. Another 
handsome rose for cutting, with large, solid blooms usually carried 
singly on a long stem. The lovely deep cool pink color is always 
fresh looking. Buds are pointed, deep pink to light red, opening 
to an appealing rose-pink. There are 35 to 45 big wide petals of 
firm texture, of a slightly deeper shade of pink on the underside. 
The two shades of pink are most attractive at all stages. Light tea 
fragrance is very welcome. 
The foliage of Garden State is especially good, covering the very 
tall bush with a lush deep glossy green mantle. Vigorous, well 
branched and healthy. 
$3.50 ea.—3 or more, $3.20 ea. 
GIVE A ROSE A 
CHANCE ... AND 
SEE WHAT IT WILL 
DO FOR YOU 
In these days of turmoil 
and strain, roses are heaven- 
sent symbols of tranquility 
and peace. A short time 
spent with your roses— 
working with them, or sim- 
ply admiring their colors 
and inhaling their perfume 
—will do more to restore 
your spirits than any medi- 
cine you can take. Their 
cost is insignificant com- 
pared with the joy they will 
bring you. 

Lady Elgin 
Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) Plant Pat. 
1469. A rose ‘‘made to order” for flower arrangers. 
Buds are so well formed and the petals so firm that the 
bloom is a delight from start to finish. The colors are 
unique: soft orange on the outside of the bud, to a 
lovely blend of butterscotch and apricot in the open 
flower. As the bud slowly opens, it shows a soft 
orange-gold on the upper side of the petals, with a 
hint of red. Blooms are large, with 35 to 45 broad 
petals, and a subtle fragrance is the final perfect touch. 
Lady Elgin’ grows strong and upright, with sea- 
green foliage that highlights the rich blooms. A beau- 
tiful rose for cutting and often a winner at flower 
shows. 
$3.50 ea.—3 or more, $3.20 ea. 
White Knight (not illustrated) 
Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meilland.) Plant Pat. 1359. 
& A fine pure white rose with curled petals producing a star 
effect. The beautifully shaped buds open to firm, satiny white 
flowers of exhibition calibre, borne on good stems. An excellent 
rose for cutting—not so large as to be overpowering when com- 
bined with other kinds in an arrangement. 
The upright-growing, 3-foot plant is healthy and moderately 
vigorous. Bloom production may not be so plentiful as you would 
wish, but the clear white color and the lovely starry form of the 
flower are so admired that many growers think the blooms are 
worth waiting for. 
$3.50 ea.—3 or more, $3.20 ea.
