Countess Vandal 
Fine New Patented Roses 
This list contains what we think is the 
best of the new patented roses, offered by 
Jackson & Perkins Co., famous rose grow¬ 
ers. 
AMELIA EARHART, H. T. (Plant Patent 
No. 63)—Large ovate bud, cream with 
blush; flowers very full, graduating from 
deep yellow center to an outer collarette 
of large cream petals with a blush over¬ 
tone. Extremely fragrant, strong grower, 
free bloomer, with leathery dark green 
foliage. Each, $1.25. 
COUNTESS VANDAL. (U. S. Patent No. 
38)—A vigorous new Hybrid Tea rose 
with long pointed copper orange buds. 
The flowers are large, double, high cen¬ 
tered and richly fragrant. When open the 
color is brilliant pink lighted with salmon. 
Each, $1.00. 
ECLIPSE. (Plant Patent No. 172) — A 
brilliant new yellow rose. An entirely 
new type. Eclipse is the heroine of 1936, 
the winner of the most coveted, and in¬ 
trinsically most valuable, medals of the 
rose world, at Colle Oppio (Rome) and 
last June in Paris, where Eclipse was se¬ 
lected out of three score and ten con¬ 
testants for the Bagatelle Gold Medal. 
Aside from a strikingly handsome plant 
with distinctive and almost immune to 
disease foliage, the bud of Eclipe "eclipses 
’em all.” Gracefully streamlined, it often 
exceeds 2 inches in length, ornamented 
with narrow, branching sepals which 
make a harmonious contrast with the 
gold of the petals. The open bloom has 
a lovely fragrance. Tt will delight those 
who have learned to prefer elegance to 
opulence, grace to coarse abundance in 
Roses. The autumn blooms are larger 
and much fuller. Eclipse can be relied 
on for cut-flowers at all times and keeps 
well in water. Each, $1.50. 
Eclipse 
GLOAMING, H. T. (Plant Patent No. 137) 
—A new rose of great charm with large, 
full well formed blooms of soft satiny pink 
overlaid with salmon and amber. An ex¬ 
cellent keeper of delightful fragrance. 
Each, $1.25. 
ROME GLORY, H. T. (Patent applied for) 
A cross of Dame Edith Helen and Sensa¬ 
tion. This rose was bred with the object 
of raising a red Dame Edith Helen and 
the objective has been reached. A most 
robust and vigorous plant, much more 
winter hardy than most Hybrid Teas, pro¬ 
ducing in quick succession long stems 
bearing large crimson-red buds opening 
into full, 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 have no hesi¬ 
tation in proclaiming Rome Glory the fin¬ 
est red rose yet introduced. Each, $2.00. 
SIGNORA, H. T. (Plant Patent No. 201) 
—A real masterpiece from the land of 
sunshine and Chianti wine. The long 
buds are 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 and 
the blooms especially fine for cutting. 
Each, $1.50. 
YOSEMITE, H. T. (Plant Patent No. 109) 
—Vigorous bushy plants of continuous 
blooming habit. Buds orange-scarlet, 
brone in clusters, opening to medium- 
large semi-double orange scarlet with a 
suffusion of carmine on the reverse side 
of the petals. Each, $1.00. 
Polyantha Type 
PERMANENT WAVE. So named because 
the petals are waved and fluted during 
the whole life of the blossom form the 
first opening of the bud until the petals 
begin to fall, producing a truly novel ef¬ 
fect. Blooms are rather large for this 
type, rosy pink with cerise edges, borne 
in great clusters. Good either singly or 
in low hedges and borders. (Plant Pat. 
107). Each, $1.00.
