CALIFORNIA ROSES, 
INC. 
NATIONAL FLOWER GUILD. (3) Long pointed large buds 
which open to extremely lasting and fragrant scarlet- 
crimson flowers. A vigorous grower and continuous 
bloomer. 75 cts. each. 
POINSETTIA. (3) (Patent rights reserved.) A fine color, 
one that is truly new among roses. The plants are 
erect in growth, producing blooms freely all season on 
fine cutting stems. $1.00 each, 3 for $2.50. 
RED RADIANCE. (3) Large, dull red flower of Radiance 
form and fragrance. A reliable Rose which is easy to 
grow and is still in great demand. 
RED TALISMAN. (3) ' We are offering our own red sport 
from the Talisman Rose. In comparing it we have 
thought it to be somewhat darker and of a much clean¬ 
er color in the fading flowers. In all other ways it is 
identical with the red sports of Talisman now on the 
market. In propagating we are using only the most 
vigorous wood from the strongest plants and we note 
considerable improvement in this variety because of 
this. We have added this rose to our selection of ex¬ 
cellent cutting roses. 75 cts. each. 
ROUGE MALLERIN. (2) Pointed brilliant-red buds open¬ 
ing to rich scarlet-velvet flowers which do not blue. 
Old damask perfume. Strong upright plants. Con¬ 
tinuous bloomer. 
SOUTHPORT. (3-4) An illuminated scarlet in a perfectly 
formed bud, opening to a loose flower which holds its 
color. Always full of perfumed flowers. 
TEXAS CENTENNIAL. (4) Patent No. 162. A worth¬ 
while sport of the rose. Pres. Herbert Hoover, differing 
only in color—blood-red, toning to cerise-red in the 
center of the flower. This rose has increased in 
popularity by leaps and bounds the past two years 
and we are very enthusiastic about it, recommending 
it almost everywhere. Do not fail to give it a trial. 
75 cts. each, 3 for $1.90. 
VICTORIA HARRINGTON. (3-4) We believe this novelty 
to be the finest of all red Roses. Pointed buds of black¬ 
ish red slowly open to finely formed flowers of non¬ 
fading velvety dark red, warmed with a golden flush 
in the heart of the flower. As the bud opens, the petals 
form distinct triangles, and as the bloom matures they 
reflex until the fully open flower resembles a cactus 
■dahlia. The rich red color holds until the petals fall; 
instead of fading with age, the golden luster in the 
-heart of the flower increases and suggests a warm 
brownish red instead of the blue tint of most red Roses. 
It has intense spicy fragrance. The strong plants are 
free and constant producers of specimen blooms under 
all weather conditions. Our opinion of this Rose is 
confirmed by country-wide reports which commend it 
for production of specimen blooms in both heat and 
cold. 75 cts. each. 
WILL ROGERS. (3) Medium sized blooms of blackish 
velvety crimson. The blooms have a wonderful 
fragrance. Patent No. 256. $1.00 each. 
WM. ORR. (3) Large full, very fragrant flower of deep 
velvety-crimson with delightful sheen. Vigorous; free 
flowering under all weather conditions.
