CALIFORNIA ROSES, INC. 
MERMAID. A sturdy climber yielding a constant profusion of 
rich yellow buds opening to huge, sulphur-yellow, single blooms. 
The dense evergreen foliage, which is unaffected by any known 
disease, makes this climber suitable for ground-cover, trellis, 
walls, weeping standards, or for screening any unsightly 
surfaces. 
MME. GREGOIRE STAECHELIN. A well-liked climber in 
delicate pink. 
PAUL’S LEMON PILLAR. Pale sulphur-yellow. One of the 
most beautiful sights imaginable when it stages its one great 
show of huge blooms in the early part of the year. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. (Poly.) We believe the remon¬ 
tant sport we propagate of this variety to be far superior to the 
recent variety which has received great publicity under the 
name of “Blaze.” We still think the vivid scarlet clusters borne 
in great profusion on Paul’s Scarlet in the spring are enough to 
ask of any Rose, but each year we build up our recurrent¬ 
blooming stock to better performance. 40 cts. each. 
PHYLLIS BIDE. (Poly.) A glorious cascade of small pink and 
gold rosettes. The recurrent bloom makes this variety par¬ 
ticularly adaptable where weeping racemes are desired. 
SOPHIE THOMAS. Two-tone yellow. 
SOUV. DE CLAUDIUS DENOYEL. A deep velvety red climber 
which thrives everywhere and produces quantities of perfumed 
buds. 
THELMA. (Poly.) An exquisite shade of coral-pink. 
VICOMTESSE PIERRE DU FOU. Red, passing to deep pink. 
Profuse. 
We use Ragged Robin as an understock to produce our 
field-grown, budded Roses, insuring strong, long-lived 
bushes as this stock thrives throughout the United States. 
Every care is taken to insure delivery of low-budded, 
quality plants in good condition. 
The principal considerations governing our selection of 
varieties are profusion and duration of bloom, vigor, and 
disease resistance. We feel that color novelties have been 
stressed of late to the point of overlooking vigor and pro¬ 
ductivity in the garden. 
We offer a complete color-range in plants we confidently 
recommend for your garden. 
Dormant plants are available from December to the end 
of March, but we have many kinds established in con¬ 
tainers at all times. 
Roses are shipped by Express at the purchaser’s expense. 
If wanted by Parcel Post, 10 per cent of the amount of the 
order should be added to cover the cost of mailing. 
Write for our leaflet giving planting and pruning 
instructions. 
Visitors always welcome at our Nursery located on the 
south side of Valley Boulevard, 3T oiile east of Puente,
