* SILVER JUBILEE. H.T. (A. Dickson & Sons.) 
Yellow. Enormous, 50-petaled blooms of clear, deep, 
sulphur-yellow come from large, beautifully formed, 
golden yellow buds with outside petals brushed car- 
mine. The plant is noted for vigorous, healthy, com- 
pact growth and the splendid, fragrant, exhibition 
blooms are freely produced all season. The heavy- 
textured satiny petals, with a substance like rich 
Chinese silk, make Silver Jubilee a notably long-lasting 
flower when cut. $1.25 each.* 
* SERENE. H.T. (C. Mallerin, 1940.) White. Beau- 
tiful, long, tapering buds of Countess Vandal form 
are a light buff color that becomes white as the petals 
roll back and reveal a large, tnformal, tea-scented, 
open bloom of shining silvery white, surrounding a 
center of gleaming golden anthers. This lovely, stately 
Rose earned its name by its appearance. $1.50 each.* 
* VILLE DE NANCY. H.T. (J. Reuter-Gillot, 1940.) 
Pink. We found this one blooming in France within 
50 miles of Italian border. Long, tapering pink buds, 
shaded with gold, open to 40-petaled blooms. The 
center of the flower is a glowing gold that tones to 
deep pink with silvery pink outside petals. This 
vigorous-growing, free-blooming Rose is a_ splendid 
addition to the pink Hybrid Teas. $1.50 each.*

* ADVANCE. H.T. (E. B. Le Grice, 1940.) Propa- 
gation rights reserved. Dusky coral-red. With so 
many colors already represented in the Hybrid Tea 
Roses, the patient Rose hybridizers all over the world 
have a big hurdle to go over to get something new. 
However, E. B. Le Grice, of Norfolk, England, suc- 
ceeded with Advance, for here is a color such as is 
rarely seen except in Oriental rugs or tapestries. The 
large, ovoid buds are brownish red in color and open 
to firm-petaled, beautifully modeled blooms of dusky 
coral- to cinnamon-red and glowing reddish salmon. 
The blooms open slowly and the heavy-textured 
petals make the flowers long-lasting. Mild fragrance 
like red raspberries. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.+ 
5 New Star Floribundas 
All have delighted us as they emerged to the top 
choice in our test-grounds. Here they are— 
* POULSEN’S COPPER. See illustration. Flori- 
bunda. (Poulsen, 1940.) Plant Patent applied for. 
Copper and pink. Even more exciting than Poul- 
sen’s Yellow ts this lovely new color for the Flori- 
bunda class from the famous Poulsen Bros. of 
Denmark. The stocky, bushy plants produce wave 
after wave of double, high-centered, 21-inch cop- 
pery blooms that fade to dainty charming pink with 
orange reverse, in clusters of 10 to 20. Flowers are 
long-lasting on the bush and the clusters make de- 
lightful, lasting «indoor effects, especially when cut 
as soon as color shows in the dainty buds. We pre- 
dict this will be an important addition to the Flort- 
bunda group. $2 each; 3 for $5. 
Of 4 below, see prices and descriptions on page 23. 
* BOUQUET. For bouquets of long-lasting, brilliant 
cerise-red flowers. 
*D. T. POULSEN IMPROVED. Attractive clusters 
of vivid red biooms. 
*LITTLE MISS MUFFET. As adorable as the 
little Miss in the Mother Goose rhymes. 
* DAINTY MAID. As lovely as Dainty Bess but dif- 
ferent and makes a more spreading, more free-bloom- 
ing bush. See illustration, page 23.
