{Plant Patent applied for) 
RIGHT 
This name is familiar to all gardeners, 
as Mrs. Francis King is one of the 
founders and a former Vice-President of 
the Garden Club of America. The Rose 
belongs to our new strain, evolved 
from R. nutkana, the Wild Rose of 
Alaska, therefore implies ruggedness 
and hardiness. Mrs. Francis King is a 
cross of the English yellow Rose, 
Independence Day, and Leonard Bar¬ 
ron, first hybrid of Rosa nutkana. 
An established plant will grow almost 
like a Frau Karl Druschki. The foliage 
is of medium size, reminiscent of R. 
nutkana , but tough and resistant. The 
bloom is very large and full, carried on 
a strong, upright stem, white deepen¬ 
ing toward ivory in the center. It has 
a pleasing fragrance of wild Rose and 
is a very prolific and continuous bloomer. 
Retails at $1.50 each.

electric lights. Permanent Wave is cer¬ 
tain to be talked about. Retails at
