New Rose “Columbia” 
Not since the introduction of the glorious Rose, 
American Beauty, have we been so impressed with 
any Rose as we have been with ““Columbia.”’ A hybrid 
tea of wonderful blooming qualities; as free a bloomer 
as any tea Rose; blooms all the time. Almost thorn- 
less. Wonderful strong shoots four feet or more in 
length, each producing a magnificent bloom, often 
measuring six inches across the open flower. Color a 
deep peach pink, deepening into a glowing pink, a 
perfect color. The fragrance is beyond description, 
sweeter than an American Beauty. After a thorough 
trial we heartily recommend it as a great outdoor Rose. 
Hardy as an oak, thrives n any location, strong grower 
and soon makes a great display. One of the most ex- 
quisite Roses for cutting we have ever seen; produces 
handsome buds, on long, stiff stems well above the 
foliage. Foliage is a dark green and does not seem to 
be affected with disease or troubled with insects; on 
account of its strong growth, it seems to be able to 
ward both off, thus making it one of the most popular 
cutdoor Roses. Don’t fail to include one at least in 
your order; you will never regret it. 
Price—First size, one-year plants, 35c each, for all Roses

Hybrid Tea—An American production, having been 
produced by Edward Towill, Roslyn, Pa. The blooms 
of this Rose the past season brought almost as much as 
the famous Rose, American Beauty, and as it becomes 
better known, we predict it will be as popular, as the 
color is such a pleasing shade of cerise, which it retains 
until all petals fall. Buds produced on long, stiff stems, 
well above the foliage and of immense size, long and 
pointed, opening full and double, a great producer. 
Foliage dark green, free from diseases such as Black 
Spot, Mildew, etc. Awarded First Prize for a new 
Rose in 1920. Silver Medal by the Penna. Horticultural 
Society and the International Rose Show of New York. 
Wonderful keeper, thus making it an ideal rose for 
cutting. Equally good as a forcing rose or for outside, 
being absolutely hardy in all localities. 
LADY ALICE STANLEY—Color, coral-rose, the 
inside of the petals shading to flesh-pink. Grand for 
bedding. One of the best pink Hybrid Teas.

Gentlemen: 
I received the 8 special Roses in good condition yesterday 
and was much pleased with them. Your D. & C. Rose Fertilizer 
has proven very good as I had a Rose, Mrs. Aaron Ward, with 
Trenton, N. J. 
October 4, 1923 
all the leaves fallen off and in poor condition. Now it has begun 
to put new shoots on and new leaves and is in good condition. | 
planted 8 Roses and mixed some of D. & C. Fertilizer in the 
soil yesterday. Sincerely yours, Thomas B. Cartwright.
