Everblooming Novelties 



•SENORA GARI. H.T. (P. Dot, 1934.) Orange. 

 See illustration. Lovely orange buds open to 4-inch 

 flowers of buff-apricot, a new Rose shade. There is 

 just a hint of a pinkish tint on the petals when the 

 bloom is fully open. It is a true self-color as the 

 inside and the reverse of the petals are of the same 

 luscious tint. It changes color in different ways: 

 sometimes the outside petals change first, while on 

 other blooms one-half of the flower will change, 

 leaving the other half the original color. The second 

 stage is a Quaker grayish shade in perfect harmony 

 with the buff-apricot, and when all of the petals 

 have made the change, the flower is as attractive 

 ^ as when first open. An exquisite Rose at every 



stage. It has about 30 petals and a rich, fruity 

 , fragrance. Low plants with attractive foliage that 



requires attention. $1.50 each.* 



•ANNIE DUPEYRAT. H.T. (C. Mallerin, 



1935.) Old-rose. A new variety from France 

 which is distinctly different from any Rose now 

 in commerce. Large peach-pink buds open to 43/2- 

 inch flowers of deep old-rose with an orange base 

 and a silvery edge to the petals — a very beauti- 

 ful combination. It is very double, having 70 to 80 

 petals, the inner ones crimp and fold, giving the 

 bloom the substantial appearance of some of the 

 nicer of the old Hybrid Perpetuals. It has a "differ- 

 ent" fruity fragrance. Plants strong and bushy 

 with light green foliage. First Certificate, Lyon, 

 1933; Silver Medal, Saverne, 1934. $1.50 each.* 



•CARRIE JACOBS BOND. H.T. Plant Patent 

 applied for. (Howard & Smith, 1935.) Deep rose. 

 A magnificent, full-petaled flower of deep rose color, 

 enhanced with a coral sheen. The form is ideal and 

 the great blooms come singly on stiff, upright canes, 

 making this a fine Rose for cutting. Moderately 

 fragrant. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.

•CARILLON. H.T. (J. H. Nicolas, 1935.) Plant 

 Patent No. 136. Coral and orange. A bedding Rose 

 of great activity, giving at all times a note of cheer 

 in the garden. Its long-pointed buds are orange- 

 scarlet, contrasting pleasingly with the green sepals. 

 The half-open bloom is a deep coral, overcast with 

 orange, and the full bloom is large (4 inches in 

 diameter), the inner petals being irregular but 

 artistically arranged. The bush is branchy so that 

 when planted in mass the whole bed is blanketed 

 with glossy foliage upon which rest the many 

 blooms. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.

• CATALONIA. H.T. (P. Dot, 1933.) Ver- 

 milion. See illustration. A new color in Roses. 

 Catalonia's coloring is so vivid, so different, 

 that we are at a loss for words to describe it 

 properly. The buds are deep rich carmine 

 stained with orange and open to a 50-petaIed 

 flower of velvety orange-scarlet, vermilion, 

 cochineal-red, or something like that; anyway, the 

 color is the most vivid we have ever seen in a Rose. 

 Instead of being scentless, as such a spectacular 

 flower has a right to be, it has a rich, fruity fra- 

 grance. Keep well sprayed, and one startling 

 bloom will pay for the extra care. Gold Medal, 

 Barcelona, 1931; First-Class Certificate, National 

 Rose Society Trial-Grounds, 1931. $1.50 each.*
