ROSE ON FRONT COVER 



•CONDESA DE SASTAGO. H.T. This Rose is as vigorous, tall, and free-blooming as the far-famed Radiance 

 and has the same healthy, carefree growth. The front cover fairly well portrays its form and color, but just gather 

 a few blooms and the sparkling colors, combined with rich, alluring fragrance, will give you a sense of exhilaration 

 that few other joys in life can equal. Winner of Gold Medal and many other prized awards. $1 each.* 



2 ROSES ON BACK COVER

 1934.) Plant Patent 103. An enchantingly lovely yel- 

 low Rose. You have to see this beauty to fully appre- 

 ciate it. Mere words are inadequate to describe it. The 

 blooms are large and fully double, with from 80 to 100 

 petals of radiant sunshine-yellow, enriched by a deep 

 apricot glow in the heart of the flower. A great ex- 

 hibition Rose. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.

("Peon," by J. €^1^,1936) 



See illustration. Plant Pat. 

 169. This darling little Nov- 

 elty is the tiniest red Rose in 

 existence. It blooms continu- 

 ously and is charming around 

 pools, in rock-gardens, chil- 

 dren's gardens, and in peren- 

 nial borders. The intriguing 

 miniature buds are perfectly 

 formed and open to charming 

 urn-shape before they finally 

 flash out to glowing crimson 

 blooms with a white center 

 which is almost hidden by 

 golden anthers. This delec- 

 table, dainty plant grows 

 about 6 inches high and has 

 healthy, miniature foliage. 

 $1 each; 3 for $2.50.
