NOVELTY INTRODUCTIONS FOR 1936 
RICHARD BEATTY MELLON (De Petris) 
A very large dull bronze in color somewhat resembling ''Gladys Pierson." It measures 8 to 9 inches in 
circumference and is fully double from either second crown or terminal buds. It is a very easy and vigorous 
grower attaining a height of five feet from cuttings taken the end o f March. Possesses excellent substance 
and matures October 25th. Do not reserve buds until the end of August or first part of September. We 
have found best results from buds taken August 30 to September 5th. We consider this an excellent variety 
in the much needed early bronze varieties. Price: $2.00 each per plant, $20.00 per dozen.
