Your Garden 
Rose Growers, the world over, offer new va¬ 
rieties each year for the delight of enthusiastic 
rosarians. Only a few of these new sorts survive 
the rigid tests given them in nurseries. From 
these few we have selected a small list which 
we can recommend to gardeners in California. 
Growing them will add new interest to your 
garden. When they bloom, their beauty will 
give you a delightful surprise. 
Carrie Jacobs Bond. H.T. (1935) This 
rose, named for the beloved composer, 
will become as popular as her well- 
known songs. The large, magnificently 
formed flowers are a warm coral-rose in 
color. The fragrance is the true rose 
perfume like that of old-fashioned va¬ 
rieties. Stems are long and extra strong, 
holding the flowers upright. $1.50. 
Duchess of Montrose. H.T. (1929) For 
two years this variety has attracted 
more attention than any other red rose 
in our test garden. The buds are ex¬ 
quisitely modelled and of a rich glowing 
crimson. The open flowers are moder¬ 
ately double and quite large. 75c. 
Mme. Cochet-Cochet. H.T. (1934) Win¬ 
ner of the coveted Bagatelle Gold Medal 
in 1932, this is one of the loveliest new 
roses. Color and form of flower is much 
like Los Angeles but stems are stronger 
and support the flowers perfectly. Buds 
open gold and pink and fade to satin 
pink in the fully opened stage. A good 
grower with fair fragrance. $1.50. 
McGredy’s Ivory. H.T. (1929) The size 
and perfection of form of this wonder¬ 
ful rose are almost unbelievable. It 
stays in the full bud stage for several 
days, the thick petals opening very 
slowly though it does not ball. Color is 
a warm ivory that is most attractive. 
(See illustration on page 44.) 75c. 
Mrs. Mabel V. Socha. H.T. (1935) A 
glorious new yellow rose that will be a 
leader in its class. The long, shapely 
buds open deep golden apricot changing 
to lemon and gold in the fully double 
open flowers. Fragrance is a pleasing 
tea odor. Growth of plant is low but 
sturdy and foliage is extra good. $1.50. 
Permanent Wave. H.T. (1934) The 
name of this rose describes perfectly 
the form of the petals, each of which is 
beautifully ruffled and frilled. Flowers 
are of medium size and borne in clusters 
at the ends of long strong stems. Color 
is deep carmine approaching red in the 
bud stage. We found this rose excep¬ 
tionally popular among ladies visiting 
our garden. $1.50. 
Portadown Fragrance. H.T. (1932) 
Without question this is the most fra¬ 
grant rose grown. This quality more 
than compensates for the rather sprawl¬ 
ing growth of the bush. Flowers are 
exceptionally large and the color a rich, 
soft pink heavily tinged with gold at the 
base of each petal. One of the earliest 
roses to bloom. 75c. 
Sister Therese. H.T. (1930) Vigorous 
growth and profuse bloom distinguish 
this new yellow rose. Because of its 
height it is excellent for background 
planting. Buds are borne on extra long 
stems; they are golden yellow some¬ 
times streaked with red on the outer 
petals. Open flowers change to creamy 
yellow. 75c. 
Sunkist. H.T. (1931) This sport from 
Joanna Hill has all the beauty of form 
of the original variety but in addition 
has glowing autumnal tints in its outer 
petals that make its name very fitting. 
Those who demand long slender buds 
for cutting will find this variety most 
satisfactory. 60c. 
Vivid Mason. H.T. (1935) A brilliant 
novelty rose opening deep carmine and 
orange and changing to lovely shades of 
rose and pink with golden shades at the 
base of the petals. Plant is an excep¬ 
tionally robust grower with strong 
wiry stems which make it a fine variety 
for cutting. Fragrance is fair. $1.00.
