FOR THE 8-t-G SHOW! 



PLANT SOME OR ALL OF THESE THIS FALL 



• QUEEN ELIZABETH. Plant Pat. 1259. A 

 /<sg\ glorious Pose, in every way. It is a very at- 

 LSflgJ tractive shade of pink in bud and bloom: showy 

 s ^ sy and rich but not at all harsh. The good-sized, 

 H.T.-type blooms arc produced with the lavish 

 abundance of a Floribunda. Most of the flowers come 

 in candelabras mot clusters), each with its own 6 to 

 12-inch stem, long enough to make them good for 

 individual cut Bowers. The plants arc tall (3 to 4 feet), 

 upright, vigorous, adorned all season with a constant, 

 irrepressible display of bloom. A 1955 All-America 

 winner, it received high scores in all the various cli- 

 mates, in all parts of the country. Make sure you add 

 this gracious and lovely new Queen to your garden 

 this fall. You'll always be glad you did. $2.75 ea.; 

 3 or more, $2.40 ea. 



• BUCCANEER. Plant Pat. 1119. This golden 

 beauty was introduced as an H.T., but the American 

 Rose Society has now transferred it to the new Grandi- 

 flora class. The 30-petaIed blooms are of Hybrid Tea 

 size and form, and they usually come one to a stem. 

 The plants grow extra-tall — to 5 feet or more — and 

 are continually spangled with the bright buttercup- 

 yellow buds and blooms. Buds are long and sleek, 

 blooms cupped, with light, very sweet fragrance. 

 Healthy, dark green foliage. $2.50 ea. ; 3 or more, 

 $2.20 ea. 



• CARROUSEL. Plant Pat. 1066. This glorious 

 garnet-red Rose is just as outstanding as the other 

 three in this new Grandiflora class, which means it is 

 very excellent indeed. The vigorous, upright, bushy 

 plants grow about 3 feet tall and bloom as if their 

 lives depended on it. The 20-petaIed buds and blooms 

 have beautiful H.T. form and character, sometimes 

 one to a stem and sometimes in candelabras. The 

 color is an attractive, unfading, dark red throughout. 

 $2 ea. ; 3 or more, $1.75 ea, 



• MONTEZUMA. Plant Pat. 1383. An exceedingly 

 brilliant, vivid, rosy salmon color that is showy from 

 a long distance and just as handsome close-up. The 

 buds are long and slender, blooms are 3 Y% to 4 inches 

 across with 30 to 40 petals, high-centered as they 

 open and beautiful at all times. The tall (3 to 5-foot), 

 densely foliaged plants burst into quantities of bloom 

 continually, in the best Grandiflora manner, with 

 several of the big, long-stemmed flowers topping every 

 cane. $2.75 ea.; 3 or more, $2.40 ea.
