SOUV. DE MiyiE. C. CHAMBARD. (C. Cham- 
bard, 1931.) This splendid new Rose is a brilliant 
and rich coral-pink. The form of both the long- 
pointed bud and open flower is nearly perfect in all 
stages of development; its petalage is always bright 
and fresh. The exceedingly fragrant blooms, borne 
on long stems, are ideal for exhibition where com¬ 
petition is keen. Vigorous, upright. No. 1 Grade, 
$1.00; Extra Grade, $1.25. 
TALISMAN. Brilliant orange-yellow, with 
many of the petals marked with coppery shades. 
In certain localities the early summer flowers may 
fade out fast or be imperfectly formed, but in a 
short time the plant is growing vigorously again and 
immediately “goes to work” to produce a gorgeous 
crop of flowers from August right up until late 
frosts. Intensely fragrant. Very vigorous, tall and 
erect. This Rose will go down in history as the fore¬ 
runner of the many multicolored varieties respon¬ 
sible for greatly renewed interest in everblooming 
Roses. No. 1 Grade, 85 cts.; Extra Grade, $1.00. 
VILLE DE PARIS. The long-pointed buds and 
open flowers are a true buttercup-yellow, quite 
vivid and non-fading. It is still an almost indis¬ 
pensable yellow with the most beautiful foliage of 
all. Vigorous, erect, with wiry stems. No. 1 Grade, 
85 cts.; Extra Grade, $1.00. 
WILHELM KORDES. Buds are very pointed 
and long, of deep golden salmon. When open the 
flower takes on an entirely different color, petals 
being marked with shades of reddish copper. A 
Rose that the fancier immediately wants when the 
striking and novel colors are first seen. Intensely 
fragrant. Moderate, bushy. No. 1 Grade, 85 cts.; 
Extra Grade, $1.00. 
WILLIAM ORR. Flowers very large, deep 
velvety crimson. The shining petals of firm sub¬ 
stance never fade, even when open full; exceedingly 
fragrant. A comparatively new dark red that does 
very well with us and in well-fertilized gardens. No. 
1 Grade, 85 cts.; Extra Grade, $1.00. 
Due to most careful methods of dusting and spraying, all our plants are absolutely free 
of diseases and pests. Both State and Federal horticultural authorities make thorough in¬ 
spections many times throughout the year.
