ducer. Enjoy the beauty of a profusion of glorious color in a rose garden of 
your own. 
1. BLAZE (Everblooming Paul’s 
Scarlet) 
Plant Patent No. 10 
This marvelous, hardy, everblooming:, scarlet- 
red Rose is a seedling of Paul’s Scarlet Climber 
and Gruss an Teplitz, combining the bloom and 
the habit of Paul’s Scarlet with the everbloom¬ 
ing character of Teplitz. It is a vigorous, 
climbing Rose, clothed from top to bottom with 
excellent foliage, and generally covered with 
flowers from the earliest blooming season until 
late autumn. It can be pruned very low to 
make massing or bedding plants, or it can be 
trained as a shrub or tied up as a climber or 
pillar. Its great adaptability in these respects 
makes it a fine utility Rose, and its brilliant 
color insures that it will supplant the ordinary 
Paul’s Scarlet. Blaze was awarded the Special 
Certificate reserved for Climbing Roses at the 
Bagatelle Contest in Paris, 1933. 
Price: All Two-Year, No. 1 Plants, 
$2.00 each, 6 or more at $1.67 each. 
2. GOLDEN CLIMBER (Mrs. Arthur 
Curtiss James) 
Plant Patent No. 28 
Originated by Mr. and Mrs. Walter D. Brow¬ 
nell, of Rhode Island, who have been working 
strenuously to improve the size, color, hardi¬ 
ness, and blooming qualities of climbing Roses, 
this magnificent new golden yellow climber has 
met with sensational approval wherever it has 
been grown or shown. It is virtually a yellow 
Mary Wallace, although the foliage is glossier 
and healthier, and the long-stemmed yellow 
flowers are borne singly instead of in clusters. 
Blooms of tremendous size with glorious, 
long-pointed buds were exhibited at the Rose 
Show of the Massachusetts Horticultural So¬ 
ciety and won the acclaim of the members of 
the American Rose Society assembled in Boston 
at that time. 
Undoubtedly this splendid new Rose is the 
finest hardy yellow climbing Rose introduced 
to date, and will give great pleasure to a tre¬ 
mendous number of enthusiastic Rose-growers 
as it becomes known to them. 
Price: All Two-Year, No. 1 Plants, 
$2.00 each, 6 or more at $1.67 each. 
3. A New Novelty, COUNTESS 
VANDAL 
Everblooming. Plant Patent No. 38 
At all the Rose shows in Europe during the 
season of 1931 this Rose took first prizes, 
medals, and awards of commendation, 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 more than 5 inches across, 
its long, deep petals reflexing in a graceful 
manner so that it has an exquisite delicacy of 
form unapproached by other varieties of sim¬ 
ilar size. Upright and vigorous; bronzy foliage 
and prolific flowering habit. 
Price: $1.50 each, 6 or more at 
$1.25 each. 
4. MARY HART (New) 
(Red Talisman) 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 somewhat darker green. 
It is an unceasing 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 the blooms fade. 
Price: $1.50 each, 6 or more at 
$1.25 each. 
5. SOUVENIR (Golden Talisman) 
Plant Patent No. 25 
A pure golden yellow sport of the remarkable 
Rose, Talisman, which it equals in vigor and 
resembles in its upright growth, healthy light 
green foliage, and freedom in blooming. Its 
flowers are slightly larger than those of Talis¬ 
man and a little more loosely built, thus cor¬ 
recting one of the minor faults of that popular 
variety. The blooms are fadeless yellow and 
last for a long time, either on the bush or 
when cut. It promises to be the most free- 
flowering, non-fading yellow Rose yet intro¬ 
duced and its Talisman parentage assures its 
vigor and excellent behavior in the garden. 
We are almost certain that it will take its 
place as a permanent garden resident. 
Price: $1.00 each, 6 or more at 
84c each.

ROSES 
Hardy Hybrid Tea Varieties 
New Introductions 
We are listing, in our opinion, the twelve best 
roses of recent introduction for the Southwest. 
In making our selections we tried to consider 
first of all the hardiness and vigor of each 
variety, but keeping in mind at the same time 
that beauty of the flower was a necessary re¬ 
quirement for a truly successful rose. Price 
$5.00 per doz., 50 cts. each. 
1 ANGELUS: Very double, long petals. Re 
sembles the old favorite Kaiserin Augusta Vic¬ 
toria but has the added charm of fragrancy. 
Strong grower. 
2 BRIARCLIFF: An improved Columbia, long 
pink petals, very double. A good greenhouse 
variety that docs equally well outside. 
3 CUBA: Large copper, almost single flowers 
when opened. A very unusual and striking 
rose and worthy of a place in your garden. 
4 DAINTY BESS: A single dainty white rose 
with flowers borne in large clusters. 
5 DAME EDITH HELEN: The showiest, as 
well as one of the best all round pink roses 
ever introduced for this section. The large, 
beautiful very double blossoms last well, mak¬ 
ing them good for cut flowers. The plants are 
of vigorous growth and free blooming. Your 
garden will not be complete without this won¬ 
derful rose. 
6 E. G. HILL: Dark red, very double, large 
and fragrant. The plants are vigorous growers 
and prolific bloomers. A good variety for cut 
flowers as the blooms keep in good condition 
for several days after cutting. 
7 ETOILE DE HOLLANDE: Large brilliant 
red flowers. Large petals. Free blooming and 
vigorous growth. 
8 IMPERIAL POTENTATE: Dark pink, 
double blossoms. Under sides of petals some¬ 
what lighter after opening. Plant of healthy, 
upright growth with vigorous heavy foliage. 
9 JOANNA HILL: Bright yellow, strong 
bloomer. Good cut rose with long stems. Re¬ 
sembles the popular Sunburst, but is better in 
every feature. 
10 MRS. PIERCE S. duPONT: This golden 
yellow rose is one of the prettiest yellow roses 
that we have seen. Its long clear yellow buds, 
vigorous stems and foliage, and general beauty 
and vigor make a pleasing combination. If 
you only have room for one yellow rose in your 
garden, we recommend this variety. 
11 PRESIDENT HERBERT HOOVER: Vig¬ 
orous colored new rose, double large bloom and 
large fragrant petals that last well. 
12 TALISMAN: Probably the best known and 
most popular of the newer introductions. Bril¬ 
liant salmon colored: many shaded buds make 
this rose an outstanding success. Vigorous up¬ 
right growth and very full bloomer.
