1943*s Newest Star Roses 



These newest varieties are all from Europe 

 and include superb Roses from the world-re- 

 nowned Rose hybridizers, Mallerin, Meilland, 

 Dot, Ketten, and Crimson King (see back cover) 

 from Kordes. They were brought here before the 

 war as potential varieties to be tried in our severe 

 American climate, and they were tested, checked 

 and rechecked monthly during several growing 

 seasons before they had proved themselves 

 worthy to be accepted in the Star Rose family. 



You will be proud to have any of these Newest 

 Roses in your garden. They will bloom within 10 

 weeks after spring planting. 



-A- DON ROSE. H.T. (Mallerin.) Prop, rights 

 reserved. Beautiful, tapered buds of carmine- 

 red are freely produced all season and open to 

 large, exquisitely modeled, long-lasting blooms 

 of coppery pink. The plants are well clothed with 

 leathery, bluish green, disease-resistant foliage. 

 On November 7, when this was written, the 

 plants were still producing beautiful buds and 

 colorful blooms in one of our test-gardens where 

 they actually get less care than in our Rose-fields 

 so we can find out their possibilities under ad- 

 verse conditions. Named in honor of Don Rose, 

 popular columnist and associate editor of the 

 Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. $1.25 ea.; 3 for 

 ^3. 15. J

 iously attractive Rose. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75.1:
