VIRGINIA. Been buying Roses from you for several years and am much pleased with the 

 Roses. Have better luck with them than with the two near old budded or grafted Roses I have 

 been buying from other houses. W. F. Long, June 20, 19S0. 



A Super Rose 

 'Francis Scott Kev 



* Francis Scott Key 



This American production, named in honor of the 

 author of our national anthem, is a credit to its name. 

 It is by far the most popular red rose, for its glowing 

 colors, its remarkable size, its fullness, its perfection of 

 form, make it a greatly prized variety. The color is a 

 rich, glowing scarlet, with darker shadings, becoming 

 darker as the flower ages. It is a continuous bloomer, 

 producing its immense blooms on stout stems in great 

 profusion. The growth is excellent and the foliage 

 heavy, little troubled with disease. Very hardy. 

 Reports from almost all sections of the country show 

 excellent results with this remarkable rose. 



LADY ALICE STANLEY. Massive buds and 

 blooms, fully double and very sweet, outside petals 

 coral-rose, inside pale flesh pink. One of the de- 

 pendable roses for any purpose. 



LADY ASHTOWN. One of the good old standard 

 Roses that remains good. Satiny buds and blooms 

 of deep shining pink with a yellow glow at base of 

 petals. High center and very double. 



VICTOR. A new rose of American origin. Color a 

 deep rose and carmine, edges of petals carmine lake. 

 Buds long and pointed opening full and double on 

 long stiff stems well above the foliage. Delightfully 

 fragrant. Hardy in any location. Foliage dark 

 green.
