Plant Patent No. 131 
No bush Rose ever produced more blooms per plant, and a group 
of Rochester is a continuous mass of beautiful flowers. It is hardy, as it 
belongs to that new popular strain of bedding Roses—Floribunda- 
Hybrid Tea-Polyantha. The bloom is medium large and double, with 
the brilliant colors of an Oriental pearl mounted on p , 
gold, reminiscent of its pollen parent, Rev. F. Page- ac c s ’ 
Roberts. Blooms in clusters. S8.50 dozen 
Plant Patent No. 107 
A striking novelty from Holland. Its single flowers have received a 
permanent marcel and make conspicuous large clusters. The reverse of the 
petals is a peculiar cochineal-red, while the inside is a tint lighter. Vigorous 
grower. Its new foliage is similar to a purple-leaf beech and very orna¬ 
mental. The blooms make long-lasting table decorations of a handsome 
effect under electric lights. Permanent Wave is certain to p i 7 c f 
be talked about. Gold Medals: The Hague, 1932; Spain a ^ c s ‘
