\ 
Something Entirely New — CHIQUITA (LITTLE GIRL) — the Baby Rose 
You Have Always Wanted 
• CHIQUITA. (Little Girl) Miniature. [Moore, 1937.] (All rights reserved.) Some¬ 
thing different in baby Roses—a Rose that flower lovers have wanted for years. One 
florist, when shown this Rose, exclaimed, "Florists have waited twenty years for that Rose!" 
In general the type is climbing Cecile Brunner but the form is better and the buds are 
somewhat smaller. But such a combination of colors! The outside of the petals are deep 
orange-yellow at the base, passing to orange-copper-pink on the outer edge. The open 
flower is an entrancing' combination of coppery-orange and salmon-pink with yellow at the 
base. And such fragrance!—it compares favorably with expensive imported perfumes— 
dainty, yet intense and penetrating. It is perfect material for corsages—it holds up 
marvelously well, the colors and fragrance intensifying with age. The plant is of medium 
climbing habit, the foliage is good and it produces the exquisite little flowers in clusters 
right through the season from spring to fall. What more could we ask of a Rose. To grow 
it and know it is to love and cherish it as you do no other Rose. $1.00 each.

THE BEST NEW YELLOW CLIMBING ROSE 
• MAID OF GOLD: (Raffel, 1936). Plant Patent No. 246. This Rose is a seedling of 
Climbing Golden Emblem and is almost like it in every way except that it holds the color 
with almost no fading until the last petal has fallen, and produces a great many more 
flowers. It has the same indescribably beautiful com¬ 
bination of yellow and red found in Golden Emblem 
that has won and held for years the love and admiration 
of all who love yellow Roses. We have watched this 
Rose through all stages of its development and we feel 
justified in saying that it is, without doubt, the best 
yellow climber in its class. The original plant during its 
third year produced over two hundred flowers in the 
spring and some at all times through the season until 
November. During October it produced over one 
hundred blooms. It has everything one could ask for in 
a climbing Rose—the flowers have form, color and 
fragrance. The plant grows freely, the foliage is good 
and the flowers are produced freely though the entire 
growing season. To see a large plant of this Rose in 
bloom is to fall in love with it. We do not hesitate to recommend it as the finest of all 
yellow hybrid tea climbing Roses. $1.00 each. $ 10.00 per dozen.
