FALL PLANTING

ROSE NEWS 



Helpful Hints on Success with Roses 



We recommend fall planting of Roses, particu- 

 larly tliroughout the nortlu-rn and eastern states. 

 The risk of loss by winter freezing can be avoided by 

 having each jilant covered C) to 10 inehis deep with 

 a cone of soil. Fall [planting will insure plants 

 freshly dug if ordered direct from the grower. 

 Those who merely merchandise Roses cannot offer 

 you this advantage. 



(1) Roses planted in fall get the roots nicely 

 established, ready to go right to work at the first 

 chirp of si)ring. An early start like that means 

 larger growth and better, bigger blooms. 



(2) In the fall there is little risk of that "all-sold" 

 disappointment. Assortments then are complete. 



THE STAR * TRADE -MARK 



Every Star Rose plant carries a durable celluloid 

 Star tag. (See cuts on pages 5 and 24.) On it is the 

 name of the Rose and our guarantee to you. This 

 Star label is truly the hall-mark of Rose quality. 



STAR ROSES ARE GUARANTEED 



We guarantee every Star Rose to bloom at the 

 first blooming period after purchase, failing which, 

 we will replace the Rose or refund its cost.

1934 NOVELTIES 



• ANGELS MATEU. II.T. (P. Dot, 1934.) 

 Orange-rose. A new Rose which was awarded the 

 Gold Medal, Bagatelle, France, June, 1934. Flowers 

 of orange-rose, with an iridescent sheen which is 

 very lovely. It is fully double, having 50 to 75 

 petals, but always opens well. Delightful black- 

 berry fragrance. $2 each. 



• DUQUESA DE PENARANDA. H.T. (P. Dot, 

 1931.) Copper-apricot. See illustration. This Rose 

 produces two distinct types of flowers. During the 

 summer the pointed buds are a blend of apricot- 

 orange and dark pink, opening to splendid blooms 

 of coppery apricot. The autumn flowers are just 

 about as beautiful as it is possible for a Rose to be. 

 Great brownish buds open slowly to finely formed 

 flowers, 4 inches in diameter, of a luscious cinnamon- 

 peach shade which words cannot truly describe, and 

 this rich color lasts. It is sweetly perfumed. Gold 

 Medal of the King, Barcelona, 1929; Certificate of 

 Merit, Ontario Rose Test-Garden, 1933. $1.50 each. 



• CATALONIA. H.T. (P. Dot, 1933.) Vermilion. 

 See illustration. This child of two of the loveliest 

 Roses ever grown (Shot Silk and Mari Dot) has 

 brought a new color to Roses. Catalonia's coloring 

 is so vivid, so different, that we are at a loss for 

 words to describe it properly. The buds are deep, 

 rich carmine stained with orange, and open to a 

 50-petaIed flower of velvety orange-scarlet, ver- 

 milion, to cochineal-red, most vivid. Flowers have 

 a rich, fruity fragrance. The plants are of only 

 medium height but bushy. Gold Medal, Barcelona, 

 1931; First Class Certificate (highest award), 

 National Rose Society Trial-Grounds, 1931. $1.50 

 each.
