 Pink. This great, continuous-blooming Rose was named in honor 

 of the daughter of the Governor of Pennsylvania. It has compelled 

 attention in our trial-grounds, where we had it under observation 

 for three years, because of its excellence in every way. This two- 

 tone beauty opens from an ovoid bud of carmine-rose to a great 

 50-petaIed bloom of soft chamois-pink. A dependable all-summer 

 bloomer that repeats its blooms during July and August when most 

 other Hybrid Teas are resting after their June effort. The plants are 

 furnished with disease-resistant, holly-like foliage. The cut blooms 

 can be kept for a week or more indoors. $2 each.* 



• GIRONA. (D H.T. (P. Dot, 1939.) Rights to patent reserved. 

 Multicolored. Lovely buds of Turkey-red and golden yellow open 

 to blooms of 20 to 30 petals. The outside row of petals becomes light 

 Tyrian rose and makes a lovely collar for the inner petals of soft 

 golden yellow — a charming color combination. The petals are heavy 

 textured and the blooms are President Herbert Hoover type, with 

 alluring, rich, attar-of-rose fragrance. This beauty has been referred 

 to as "the Rainbow Rose" for it presents so many colors in its different 

 stages of development. It is lovely always, from opening bud to full- 

 blown bloom. A splendid Rose for cutting. $1.50 each.*

FALL PLANTING 



We recommend fall plant- 

 ing of Roses, particularly 

 throughout the northern and 

 eastern states. Fall planting 

 will insure plants freshly dug 

 when assortments are com- 

 plete. The risk of loss by 

 winter freezing can be avoided 

 by having each plant covered 

 6 to 10 inches deep with a 

 cone of soil. 



you RUN NO RISK 



Every Star Rose is guaran- 

 teed to grow and bloom or we 

 will replace the plant or re- 

 fund its cost. For more than 

 20 years we have been living 

 up to the terms of this 

 guarantee. 



Roses planted in the fall 

 get the roots nicely estab- 

 lished, ready to go right to 

 work at the first chirp of 

 spring. An early start like 

 that means larger growth and 

 better, bigger blooms.
