AUTUMN. Burnt orange and pink, streak¬ 
ed with red. 
AUSTRIAN COPPER. (Austrian Brier) This 
is not a Rose to be planted in your Rose 
garden, but to be given a place among 
your shrubs or used as a specimen plant— 
for it makes a shrub 4 to 6 feet high and as 
much across. Although it blooms but once 
in a season, it is much desired because it is 
positively the most vivid combination of 
colors in existence—brilliant copper-scarlet 
on the inside of the petals and deep orange- 
yellow on the reverse. Do not prune it— 
just leave it alone for best results. 
CATALONIA. A new color in Roses. The 
buds are a deep shade of rich carmine stain¬ 
ed orange. The 50 petaled flower is of 
velvety orange-scarlet. This may not de¬ 
scribe the colors exactly, but it is the most 
vivid color we have ever seen in a Hybrid 
Tea Rose. The plant is thrifty and healthy 
and produces the wonderful flowers on 
stems of good length. The growth is spread¬ 
ing. Heavy grade 75c each, Medium 
grade 50c each. 
CHARLES P. KILHAM. Brilliant oriental 
red. Marvelous form in both bud and open 
flower, it stands at the top of the list in 
cutting value. 
CONDESA DE SASTAGO. This unusual 
Rose has won certificates and medals in all 
the important American and European 
shows since its introduction in 1932. Best of 
all, however, it is a superb garden Rose that 
anyone can grow to perfection. It has 
great vigor of growth, abundant, healthy 
foliage and great freedom of bloom. It is 
delightfully fragrant and lasts a long time 
when cut. The color is very striking—the 
inside of each petal is reddish copper, while 
the outside is golden yellow. Heavy grade 
75c each. Medium grade 50c each.
