Plant Patent No. 
ECLIPSE 
(J. H. Nicolas) 
Plant Patent No. 172 
A brilliant new yellow Rose 
with streamlined bud—an en¬ 
tirely new type. Eclipse was the 
heroine of 1936 the winner of 
the most coveted and intrinsi¬ 
cally most valuable gold medals 
of the Rose-world at Colle 
Oppio (Rome) and at Bagatelle 
(Paris). Aside from a strikingly 
handsome plant with distinc¬ 
tive and almost-immune-to-dis- 
ease foliage, the bud of Eclipse 
“eclipses them all.” Gracefully 
“streamlined,” it often exceeds 
2 inches in length, ornamented 
with narrow, branching sepals 
which make a harmonious con¬ 
trast with the gold of the petals. 
Gold Medal, American Rose 
Society, 1936. Retails at $1.50 
each.

COUNTESS VANDAL 
(Leenders, Holland) 
Plant Patent No. 38 
The Countess needs no further introduction. In 
fact, she has been enthusiastically received by Rose- 
lovers everywhere. Countess Vandal has been ac¬ 
claimed the belle of the modern Rose Pageant, defeat¬ 
ing all challengers to the honor, by producing, with¬ 
out contradiction, the most artistic bud in rosedom, 
garbed in coppery bronze and pink, suffused with 
silver and soft gold. It presents a continuous “movie” 
developing new beauty at all times during its life. 
The open bloom is a compass pointing to all parts of 
the horizon. A consistent bloomer. Retails at $1.00 
each.
