NIGRETTE —Plant patent No. 87. No rose in recent years 
has created such a sensation as this rose. The flowers are 
a deep maroon with a blackish velvety sheen, deliciously 
fragrant and produced very freely. In fact, it is always 
in bloom — a healthy, vigorous grower. We like it.

PERMANENT WAVE —Plant patent No. 107. A fine new Poly- 
antha hybrid which in 1933 won the Bagatelle Gold Medal, the 
highest award for a rose. Always in bloom, the flowers come 
in great clusters, rosy pink with cerise edges, and the petals are 
beautifully waved. Grows two feet tall; fine for bedding or a 
hedge. The new foliage is beautiful in itself, a purple-copper 
color. Each $1.50.

flowers are absolutely the height of rose perfection, 
large and fully double, a lovely deep creamy yellow.

on long stems. A wonderful rose for both garden 
display and for cutting. Pictured on front cover.

COUNTESS VANDAL —Plant patent No. 38. 
Extra long pointed buds of copper open into 
glorious flowers of coppery bronze suffused 
with pink and gold. As the flower ages, the 
petals roll back, and the bloom is lovely at 
all stages. It is hardy, a vigorous grower 
and free bloomer. Easily one of the world’s 
great roses. At our new low price, all can 
now have this lovely rose. Pictured on 
front cover. Each $1.00.

MRS. PIERRE S. DU PONT —Both in 1933 and in 1934 this was 
the favorite rose in our Chicago World’s Fair Rose Garden. 
It has won more gold medals as an outdoor rose than any

sight with its rich golden yellow flowers which do not fade.
