GLOAMING. (Nicolas, 1935) Plant Pat¬

has proven a "winner" wherever grown. Its 
large, perfectly formed buds and flowers, 
carried on long, rigid stems, are amply 
clothed with handsome foliage. The bloom 
is of unusual coloring—fawn-orange in the 
bud, and the large, full blooms are a pecul¬ 
iar pink overlaid with salmon. The plant is 
vigorous and branching, and fairly tall grow¬ 
ing. Each $1.25. Doz. $12.50. 
MATADOR. (Van Rossem, 1935) Plant

Etoile de Hollande type. The color is scar¬ 
let-crimson with darker silky sheen on the

The flower is very double and full. The in¬ 
tensely fragrant buds and flowers are

MARY HART. (Hart, 1931) Plant Patent 
No. 8. We have grown this striking red 
sport of Talisman in our own garden for 
years and we are now more enthusiastic 
fhan ever. In the form of the buds and 
flowers and the habit of growth of the 
plant it is just like Talisman—but the colors! 
—the bud is maroon-red and the open 
flower is a deep velvety blood-red with a 
amber! It is a favorite with many of our 
Rose-friends. Each $1.00 
well-formed, fragrant, cerise-red blooms. 
The flowers are long-lasting on the plant 
or when cut and are not affected by dry or 
wet weather. We do not hesitate to pro¬ 
claim Rome Glory the finest red Rose yet 
introduced. Each $2.00. Doz. $20.00. 
SIGNORA. (Aicardi, 1936) Plant Patent 
No. 201. This Rose is a real masterpiece in 
both plant and bloom. Long bud of a warm 
burnt sienna opening to a lighter hue toward 
mandarine. The plant is tall-growing with 
every bloom on a long stem. The foliage is 
handsome. Indispensable to those who 
grow Roses mainly for cutting. 
Each $1.50. Doz. $15.00. 
TEXAS CENTENNIAL. (Dixie Rose Nurs¬ 
ery, 1935) Plant Patent No. 162. A sport 
of President Herbert Hoover and a II the 
good things that have been said about 
"Hoover" can be applied to this wonderful 
Rose, for it has the same wonderful plant 
qualities and the same wonderful form in the 
buds and flowers. But the colors are mar¬ 
velous and different than those found in any 
other Rose that we know of—blood-red, 
toning to cerise-red in the center. The most 
striking new red Rose and one that we do 
not hesitate to recommend in the highest 
terms. Each $1.00. Doz. $ I 0.00.

Plant Patent No. 190. A real triumph in color, size, form 
and plant. The large, ovoid, pointed bud, cerise over¬ 
shadowed with orange, opens slowly Into a very large, cup- 
formed bloom of brilliant deep pink and cerise overlaid 
with amber, toning to a wide yellow center encircling a 
heavy tuft of yellow stamens. The plant is vigorous. 
Handsome foliage, bronze at first, toning to deep green. 
This Rose is destined to a triumphal march for years to 
come. Each $1.50. Doz. $15.00
