that couldn't make up its mind! 
*TAPESTRY. H.T. (Gladys Fisher.) Plant Pat. App. For. 
Tapestry, like Joseph’s Coat, has many colors, and like a 
chameleon, it changes them to suit its fancy. It can’t seem 
to make up its mind whether to have flame-colored blooms 
today, and yellow tomorrow, with copper the day after—so it 
*% TAPESTRY has them all on the same day. In childlike indecision, it mingles 
and mixes its lovely tones and offers them on the 
bush at the same time. And no two blooms alike! 
Here is truly the wonder Rose of the year—fascin- 
ating and surprising; a Rose with a what’s-coming- 
next kind of personality that keeps you guessing. 
The plant is a free bloomer, and the flowers are 
large and double, with from 35 to 40 regularly ar- 
ranged petals which are thick and satiny. Pointed 
buds open to a high-centered flower which becomes 
cupped and then loosely rolls its petals outward. 
It’s a vigorous grower—bushy, much branched, 
low-growing and a perfect dandy for the front row. 
Add a spicy fragrance to all this and you have a 
very remarkable new Rose. $3 ea.; 3 or more, 
$2.65 ea.

1604. This brand-new bicolor is a bit of de- 
lectable beauty in cream overlaid with rose-red 
. a different and exciting kind of Rose with 
a fetching personality. It’s big—the blooms 
coming one to a long, strong stem, which makes 
for ideal cutting. The fat, full flower is high 
centered and the petals curl gracefully outward, 
exhibiting their unique beauty most advan- 
tageously. Another superb quality is the char- 
acter of the Perfecta plant. A vigorous grower, 
it has the richest, heaviest foliage imaginable— 
the kind that resists disease with the greatest 
of ease, and which adds so much to the overall 
beauty of the Rose itself. The leaves are really 
tough and durable. Perfecta grows to good 
medium height, giving a substantial appearance 
that speaks of rugged character throughout. “we 
Phis great new addition to our family of Star i 
Roses is delicately fragrant, too! Why not 
enjoy Perfecta in your garden? $3.50 ea.; 
3 or more, $3.10 ea. ©
