Rose “Los Angeles.”’ 
(Howard & Smith, 1917.) 
It is a great pleasure to be able to offer such a 
meritorious new Rose, particularly so, one of Amer- 
ican origin, and we believe that this splendid variety 
is only the forerunner of other equally good sorts 
““Made in America.” 
We have not only seen the originators’ great field 
of it in California, but have also had the opportunity 
of watching the behavior of a dozen plants in our 
own trial beds the past Summer, under what has been 
one of the most trying seasons we have ever experi- 
enced, and it has given a most satisfactory account 
of itself in strong, vigorous growth and in freedom 
of bloom in which it was not equalled by any other 
variety in its first season after planting. 
Even at this late date (October 20th) after several 
sharp frosts we have before us some splendid fowers 
over four inches across, as perfect in form as those 
shown on our colored plate, but with a life and fire 
of color that makes our color plate which we consider 
very good appear dull and lifeless, 
Following is the originators’ description: 
“Los Angeles is, by all odds, one of the finest 
Roses ever introduced. The growth is very vigor- 
ous, and produces a continuous succession of long- 
stemmed flowers of a luminous flame-pink toned 
with coral and shaded with translucent gold at the 
base of the petals. In richness of fragrance it 
equals in intensity the finest Marechal Neil. The 
buds are long and pointed and expand into a flower 
of mammoth proportions, while the beauty of form 
and ever increasing wealth of color is maintained 
from the incipient bud until the last petal drops,’’ 
Unlike many of the new imported Roses the plants 
are extra heavy two-year-old stock, which should give 
a full crop of flowers this season. Price, $2.00 
each.
