The Magnificent 

 ROYAL HIGHNESS 



All- America for 1963 



(®& H.T. (Swim & Weeks) Plant Pat. 2032. Not many new 

 *&? rose introductions have excited my interest as keenly or 

 satisfied my sense of the beautiful as thoroughly as Royal 

 Highness has. And now that it has bloomed for the first time in 

 many a garden across the country, I feel sure that a Royal High- 

 ness Fan Club has sprung automatically into being. How could 

 it be otherwise! The rose is magnificent! Here, in the same rose, 

 we have perfect rose form, wonderfully appealing color, out- 

 standing plant habit and (to ice the cake) delicious fragrance. 

 Quite an array of admired qualities! The slim, graceful bud opens 

 into the high-centered, sweetly outflowing bloom. Rows of 

 symmetrically arranged petals add substance. The Royal High- 

 ness color, too, is something to behold . . . soft, pastel — almost 

 frosty — pink. A delightful shade which, somehow, seems to be 

 as classic in its way as the form of the open flower is. Far from 

 least in the total beauty of this rose is the way the blooms are 

 held. Long, straight stems hold them as though inviting you to 

 cut them . . . proudly with one fine flower to the stem. Growing 

 to middle height, the plant is well proportioned and attractively 

 decked out in rich, dark green, glossy foliage. As the winner of 

 two of rose-loving America's highest and most desired awards — 

 the All-America and the Gold Certificate of the City of Portland — 

 Royal Highness has achieved a high place in the opinion of ex- 

 perts. A first look in his own garden will convince any gardener 

 that the experts are right . . . Royal Highness is a winner. What 

 about fragrance? The sweetest, most enticing imaginable! An 

 attribute which makes Royal Highness irresistibly appealing!

ROYAL HIGHNESS 



GRANADA 



1964 A 11- America Winner 



/^K^ H.T. (Lindquist) Plant Pat. 2214. A Spanish name — 

 ^§P the gaiety of bright Spanish colors — the spice of 

 Spain in its fragrance ... all give this brilliant new 

 rose the glamour of faraway places. And yet it's a rose to 

 please you here and now in your own garden. Imagine if 

 you can that this bi-color is brightly fluorescent in varying 

 shades of scarlet, nasturtium-red and gleaming lemon-yel- 

 low. An intriguing picture in your mind's eye? Of course! 

 The long, urn-shaped buds and the graceful blooms come 

 abundantly on strong, individual stems and are held high. 

 Granada's plant is tall, vigorous, grows upright and fea- 

 tures the beauty of dark green, holly-like foliage. In 

 Granada, both quality and beauty meet to give you, the 

 American gardener, an exceptional rose — one 

 ^^^^ worth} of winning the Ul-America award. §3.50
