MT. 

 SHASTA 



GR. (Swim & Weeks) Plant Pat. 

 2132. The buds and blooms of 

 this dramatically tall-growing 

 white Grandiflora are impressive 

 beyond words. Flowers 

 are high-centered, the 

 petals broad and sub- 

 stantial. Long stems 

 hold two or three blooms — some- 

 times only one. And fragrant 

 blooms they are! The upright, 

 vigorous plant is distinguished by 

 interesting gray-green foliage 

 which is beautifully leathery in 

 substance. Mt. Shasta blooms 

 continuously and freely, affording 

 you the delight of picking the en- 

 trancing flowers regularly. What 

 could make a finer accent plant in 

 your garden than this big white? 

 In the International Test Gardens 

 at Portland, Oregon, Mt. Shasta 

 won the Silver Certificate. That's 

 a strong recommendation. $3 ea. ; 

 3 or more, $2.65 ea.

 CRIMSON 

 DUKE 



H.T. (Alain Meilland) Plant Pat. App. For. 

 Your eye instantly appreciates the strong, 

 "full-blooded" color of this rose . . . rich, vital, 

 provocative red . . . the most stirring of all 

 colors. In the full-bodied bloom, the effect is 

 impressive and glamourous. Crimson Duke is 

 an exhibition-type rose . . . large, substantial, 

 well-formed, colorful ... a personality to be 

 reckoned with at the judging table. Flowers 

 are 4 to 5 inches across, have 30 or more petals 

 which flare out nicely. They open from fat 

 buds and are borne on strong, thick canes, 

 several to the stem. A light but pervasive fra- 

 grance adds its touch of charm. The plant 

 matches the bloom in power and character. 

 It grows medium to tall, has large, thick, glossy 

 leaves of dark green. There are many flowers. 

 I predict a fine future for Crimson Duke. $3 

 ea.; 3 or more, 82.65 ea.
