OUR SELECTION 



All Hybrid Teas: big-flowered Roses that bloom all 



season. All 2-year-old, field-grown, No. 1, STAR 



quality plants 



NO TWO ALIKE IN THE SAME SET 

 All named varieties. Postage prepaid to April 10, 1955 



This is always one of the most popular offers in our catalog, and 

 certainly it is one of the world's best values in Roses. For the plants 

 are all our regular catalog varieties, the same fine size and grade as 

 plants sold separately. Since there is not a variety in our catalog 

 that is not well worth having, you run no risk in this "OUR 

 SELECTION" Rose collections, but get more Roses for every dollar. 



These Hybrid Tea Roses bloom from spring to frost and the 

 number of fine, fragrant flowers the dozen plants will give, will amaze 

 and delight you. Yet they can be grown in a bed only 3 x 10 ft., or 

 41/2x7 ft. No flower is lovelier. Their wealth of beauty, and the joy 

 they bring, increase with succeeding years. 



Each Rose in these sets is labeled with a Star Rose name tag — a 

 durable, weatherproof, celluloid, star-shaped label bearing the name 

 of the Rose. There is sure to be a wide range of colors among the 

 Roses, and all plants are guaranteed to bloom. We also guarantee 

 the value of the collection to be at least $18.

^JIMINY CRICKET. Plant Pat. Pending. We rate 

 this newest All-America award winner as one of the 

 best. Its urn-shaped, tangerine-red buds are espe- 

 cially beautiful. As they open, the color becomes a 

 blend of orange and vermilion tones, softening later to a 

 good coral-pink. Blooms have about 

 20 petals of good size and substance, 

 which drop off cleanly as they fade. 

 Its plant is upright and shapely, 

 superbly free in bloom and growing 

 3 to 4 feet tall. It would make a 

 striking hedge; even a single plant is 

 showy. A kind that will never permit 

 itself to be overlooked. This is the 

 only Floribunda All-America winner 

 for this year, and it is altogether a 

 honey. Also, quite fragrant for a 

 Floribunda, with a pleasing, true 

 Rose scent. $2.50 ea.; 3 or more, 

 $2.20 ea.; 25 or more, $2 ea.
