Novelty and Patented Roses 
Nigrette 
“The Black Rose oj Sangerhausen” 
(M. Krause, 1934) 
Plant Patent No. 87 
In Germany, last year, this Rose aroused so 
much excitement that the newspapers of 
America carried accounts of the famous 
“Black Rose” discovered there. Actually it 
isn’t black, but it’s pretty near it; and it is a 
jolly little toy Rose worth having for the fun 
you can get out of it. It is a lovely shade of 
dark velvety maroon with a coal-black sheen 
like that of some very dark pan¬ 
sies. $2.00 each, $20.00 per doz. 
Amelia 
Earhart 
A huge yellow Rose full of numer¬ 
ous petals, developing slowly from an 
enormous golden yellow bud. It 
looks like a greatly magnified and 
improved Souvenir de Claudius Per- 
net, without that old variety’s weak¬ 
nesses and faults. The plant is very 
vigorous, producing its 
numerous stiff-stemmed 
flowers through¬ 
out the season. 
This Rose has 
attracted a 
great deal of 
favorable com¬ 
ment abroad, where it is 
used both for garden and 
exhibition purposes. At 
its best, it is a handsome and sen¬ 
sational flower, probably the largest 
and doublest of the modern race of 
Pernetiana type of Hybrid Teas. 
$1.50 each, $15.00 per doz.

GOV. ALFRED E. SMITH ht. 
(Veuve Denoyel, 1933) 
Plant Patent No. 62 
A very handsome, globular Rose reminiscent 
of the older Miss Lolita Armour. The brownish 
buds open to very double flowers of buff, terra¬ 
cotta, and golden salmon. $1.50 each, $15.00 
per doz. 
DOUBLOONS h. Set. 
(M. H. Horvath, 1934) 
Plant Patent applied for 
A stunning new hybrid of the wild Prairie 
Rose, Rosa setigera, with fine deep golden yellow 
flowers of excellent shape, both in bud and open 
bloom. Plant is a ruggedly hardy climber. 
$1.50 each, $15.00 per doz. 
“Received my shipment of Roses in fine shape; have them all set and they are a fine bunch of 
bushes. I am sure if people wanting to plant Roses could see what a fine lot of bushes I received, it 
would make you some business in this city.”—Oklahoma City, Okla., November 13, 1933.
