COUNTESS VANDAL 
HT. (M. Leenders & Co., 1932) 
Plant Patent No. 38 
At Rose shows in Europe and 
America, during the seasons of 1931— 
33, this Rose took many first prizes, 
medals, and awards of commenda¬ 
tion, making a veritable sensation in 
the Rose-world. Its long, pointed 
buds are coppery salmon and golden 
yellow, opening to large, bronzy pink 
flowers frequently over 5 inches 
wide. Long, deep petals reflex in a 
graceful manner, giving it exquisite 
delicacy of form unapproached by 
Roses of similar size. Bronzy foliage. 
Upright, vigorous; prolific flowering 
habit. $1.00 each, $10.00 per doz. 
Mary Hart 
Red Talisman 
(G. B. Hart, 1932 ) 
Plant Patent No. 8 
A stunning, glorious red sport 
of the well-known Talisman which 
it resembles in almost all respects 
except color, having the same 
erect habit, with foliage of some¬ 
what darker green. It is an un¬ 
ceasing bloomer, producing warm 
brownish crimson flowers both 
early and late, with the unusual 
merit for a red Rose that the color 
does not turn bluish as blooms 
fade. $1.00 each, $10.00 per doz. 
“Your shipment of Roses was received 
in splendid condition. Do not believe any¬ 
one ever shipped any finer stock. I cer¬ 
tainly congratulate you.”—Macon, Georgia, 
December 9, 1933.

The “Key to Classification” on page 31 gives the growing strength of each variety. If your growing conditions 
are not good it will be best for you to order only strong-growing varieties. Special quantity prices will be found 
on page 23. Our prices are lower than those of other Rose-growers of established reputation, because our large 
production, our methods and climatic conditions reduce our production costs. Remember, all prices shown in 
this Catalog are PREPAID TO YOU, except as noted under “TERMS” on page 3.
