'THE BEST IN ROSES 
15 
SOUVENIR DE MME. C. CHAMBARD 
(C. Chambard 1931) ^ .75 
After observing this rose we can readily understand 
why it was judged the finest rose of France. A long 
pointed bud opening to a high centered, beautifully 
formed fiower of coral pink with a satiny sheen. 
The fiower is usually borne singly on a very strong 
stem on which the foliage extends to within an inch 
of the rose. As fine a cut flower as Dame Edith 
Helen. Bush is a moderate grower; fragrant. 
SOUV. DE MME. JEAN SOUPERT $ .75 
This rose has long tapering, deep golden yellow buds 
which open to large semi-double cream colored 
blooms of heavy texture. Sweetly fragrant. Foliage 
glossy and resistant to disease. A medium grower. 
SUNSHINE $ .50 
A very lovely dwarf polyantha (l^/^ ft.) that is at its 
best in a cool climate. Flowers are small, double, 
of a golden orange, borne in clusters. Sunshine is a 
continuous bloomer, with foliage free from mildew. 
Moderately fragrant. 
SUNNY SOUTH ^ .60 
Another Australian rose that likes our country. A 
medium size ovoid bud that opens to a large, semi¬ 
double flower of pink flushed carmine on a yellow 
base. Moderately fragrant. A very vigorous up¬ 
right grower with rich green disease resistant 
foliage. A profuse, continuous bloomer. 
SUSAN LOUISE (Adams 1929) $ .60 
This lovely rose has proven satisfactory wherever 
grown. A seedling of the Belle of Portugal, but a 
bush rose and a continuous prolific bloomer. Bud 
is long and slender and of a deeper shade of pink 
than its parent; stems are long and firm. Growth 
is extremely vigorous and practically thornless. 
No garden is complete without Susan Louise. 
TALISMAN (Montgomery 1929) $ .60 
The color is a mixture of red, yellow and copper 
in varying proportions. The bud is long pointed 
and opens to a medium size flower of the same 
colors. Extremely fragrant. An excellent cut flower. 
Growth is vigorous and upright. Mildews slightly. 
TEXAS CENTENNIAL 
(Dixie Rose Co. 1935) ^1.00 
Texas Centennial is a sport of the popular rose 
President Hoover. Type of growth is the same 
although it appears to have more and better foliage. 
Quite prolific in bloom. Flowers are a brick red, 
having a faint tinge of gold, with a lighter center. 
This rose has shown up very well. A splendid ex¬ 
hibition rose. Plant Patent No. 162.
