Eclipse 
FIVE 
FAMOUS 
ROSES 
for 1940 
ECLIPSE (Patent No. 172) 
The international sensation, awarded prizes in Rome, Paris, and 
other test-gardens. The long, stream-lined bud, enhanced by 
ornamental sepals, is of rich gold without shading. Petals are 
large and tough, but not numerous, averaging 20 to 25, with more 
in the autumn. Speaking of this Rose, a connoisseur remarked, 
“Elegance is preferable to opulence.” The name “Eclipse came 
about because the seedling bloomed for the first time on the day 
of the total eclipse, August, 1932, and it was sent out with the 
slogan, “It Eclipses ’em all.” $1.25; 3 for $3.15. 
★CRIMSON GLORY (Patent No. 105) 
This beautiful, vigorous, and free flowering Rose has proved one 
of our very best Roses. The plants branch freely producing well- 
spread yet compact bushes of good symmetry. The large, urn- 
shaped buds open to flowers of an intense deep and vivid crimson 
shaded with deep red. $1.25; 3 for $3.15. 
SIGNORA (Patent No. 201) 
This Rose from the land of sunshine and Chianti wine is a real 
masterpiece in both plant and bloom. Long bud of a warm burnt 
sienna opening to lighter hue toward mandarine.. The plant is tall 
growing with every bloom on a long stem. Foliage is handsome. 
Indispensable to those who grow Roses mainly for cutting. (Colle 
Oppio Gold Medal). $1.25; 3 for $3.15.
