NOVELTIES AND RECENT ROSES 
TEXAS CENTENNIAL. HT. (Dixie Rose Nurs., 1935.) Plant Patent 
No. 162. A sport of President Herbert Hoover and identical with 
its parent in every way except color, which is vermilion-red when 
first opening, aging a deep rich pink. This is a fine Rose and will 
produce quantities of long-stemmed flowers for cutting. $1 each. 
VICTORIA HARRINGTON. HT. (Capt. Thomas, 1931.) Pointed 
buds of blackish red slowly open to high-centered flowers of non-fad¬ 
ing, velvety dark red, warmed with a golden flush in the heart of the 
flower. Strong, healthy plants. A Rose of lovely color and informal 
“cactus” form, quite different from any other red variety. $1 each. 
WILL ROGERS. HT. (Howard & Smith, 1936; distributed by us in 
y the East.) Plant Patent No. 256. The 3-inch open flowers are of the 
)% old Chateau de CIos Vougeot type, packed with a large number of 
short and twisted petals of blackish velvety crimson. The flowers 
carry that wonderful old-time fragrance. This Rose is as dark as the 
so-called “black” Roses and has an attractive form which few of them 
do have. Vigorous plants, blooming constantly all summer. Does 
best in shade. This is a fine Rose and one we can cheerfully 
recommend. $1 each. There will be no reduction on the price 
per 10 in this variety.

APRICOT GLOW. LC. (The Brownells, 1936.) Plant Patent No. 200. 
A truly magnificent Climber with medium-sized flowers of a light 
apricot color, shading yellow at the base, and produced in large 
clusters. Flowers are double, nicely formed, and have a pleasing 
fruity fragrance. $1.50 each. 
CLIMBING DAINTY BESS. CHT. (J. H. van Barneveld, 1935.) A 
climbing sport of the beautiful single Rose, Dainty Bess, bearing 
clusters of flowers exactly like its parent, with broad petals notched 
and fluted, of soft flesh-pink, glorified by a cluster of wine-red 
stamens. This is a real everbloomer and will well repay the little 
protection necessary to bring it through the winter where tempera¬ 
tures go very low. $1.50 each. 
CORAL CREEPER. LC. (The Brownells, 1937.) Plant Patent applied 
jor. A lovely shade of apricot-orange, fading to light pink, con¬ 
trasting pleasantly with the deep red buds of opening flowers. Its 
stiff, upright stems carry large, semi-double flowers. $1 each. 
DOUBLOONS. LC. (M. H. Horvath, 1935.) Plant Patent No. 152. 
A stunning, new, perfectly hardy, yellow Climber, developed from 
our native prairie Rose, Rosa setigera, which gives it a hardiness 
greater than any other yellow Climber. Very handsome. Illus¬ 
trated in color below. $1.50 each.

double, golden yellow flowers, borne in big sprays. $1 each. 
REICHSPRASIDENT VON HINDENBURG. CHT. (P. Lambert, 
1933.) A large, brilliant pink flower with a slight overcast of 
salmon. Extremeiy fragrant and long lasting when cut. This be¬ 
longs to a new strain of hardy, steady-blooming Roses, and whether 
used as a low pillar or allowed to develop into a sprawly bush, it 
will produce flowers from late spring until frost. We have only a 
limited supply. $2 each. 
REVEIL DIJONNAIS. LC. (E. M. Buatois, 1931.) Large, semi¬ 
double flowers of light yellow with a deep zone of carmine, crimson, 
and scarlet around the edges, giving the appearance of a red Rose 
with a great yellow center. Does best as a short pillar. The most 
spectacular Climbing Rose we have ever seen, and were it better 
known, would have been in everybody’s garden before this. One 
glorious flower will pay for the plant, and you will never forget the 
first bloom which opens for you. In cold climates it will repay 
careful winter protection. $1.50 each. 
RUTH ALEXANDER. LC. (Rena E. Wilber, 1936.) Plant Patent 
No. 178. Another gorgeous Climbing Rose with to 5-inch 
flowers of rich cadmium-orange, having the outer third of each 
petal a glowing peach-red. Vigorous plants with the largest, most 
leathery, bronzy green foliage we have ever seen on a Rose. This 
Rose has not been tried in the East, so we know nothing of its 
hardiness or remontance. 15 petals. $1.50 each. 
ELEGANCE. LC. (The Brownells, 1937.) Plant Patent applied Jor.

flowers that are perfect Hybrid Teas. $1.50 each.

tints in center, carried singly and in clusters on slightly arched
