VESTAL’S EVERBLOOMING ROSES, continued 
The following varieties, except where noted, 2-yr. field-grown budded plants, 60c each, 12 for $5.90, 
postpaid. 50 or more at 40c each, by Express collect. 
We have only a few varieties of own-root plants. These will be found listed separately. 
Senator Joe T. Robinson. A Vestal seedling so 
good that we have named it for our late beloved 
Senator. The lovely flowers are dark red, of splen¬ 
did form, and deliciously fragrant. The plant is 
the type we have been breeding for—strong and 
bushy, with healthy foliage. $1.00 each. 
Sir Henry Segrave. Beautifully formed blooms of 
pale lemon which gradually change to almost 
white. Delightful lemon fragrance. An exquisite 
Rose. 
Soeur Therese. Beautiful chrome-yellow buds, 
marked with carmine, open to loose daffodil- 
yellow flowers. The plants are big and bushy, and 
keep on producing all season. See in color on 
front cover. 
Souv. d’Alexandre Bernaix. Large, very double 
flowers of crimson-red shaded velvety purple and 
splashed with fiery red. Very distinct and very 
fragrant. 
Souv. de Jean Soupert. Strong, bushy, healthy 
plants which bloom from spring until frost. The 
flowers are loosely double, of a nice shade of 
yellow, the outer petals slightly flushed pink. 
An extra-good yellow. 
Souv. de Mme. C. Chambard. An exquisite 
double flower of coral-pink with a satiny peach 
tint. It has wonderful fragrance. The plants are 
upright, with heavy canes. It is extra hardy. 
Sunny South. Extra-vigorous plants with long¬ 
stemmed, semi-double, brilliant shell-pink flowers. 
Too big to go with other Hybrid Teas but as an 
everblooming shrub is unsurpassed. 
Syracuse. The long-stemmed scarlet-crimson 
flowers, 4 inches across, hold their color until the 
petals fall, and are prize-winners at shows. Tall 
plants with leathery foliage. See in color on 
page 8. 
Talisman. A sensational Rose of brilliant scarlet 
and gold, softening to ivory, yellow, and rose. 
Fragrant. Free flowering and very dependable. 
Texas Centennial. Plant Pat. No. 162. This 
sport of President Herbert Hoover has Hoover’s 
strong growth, long stems, fine form and fragrance, 
but the color is Oriental red with a touch of gold 
at the base, and ages deep rich pink. 
Vestal's Coral Gem. The vigorous plants branch 
freely, developing a full rounded plant which 
naturally is a free bloomer. So far we have not 
noticed either black-spot or mildew. The large, 
slightly globular, cupped flowers are a rare com¬ 
bination of geranium-red flushed orange with 
orange bases to the petals. The fragrance is mild. 
The bicolor Roses are popular everywhere and this 
is one of the loveliest of all of them. We believe 
you will like it. $1.00 each. 
Vestal’s Red. This new Rose of ours has large, 
fragrant, clear red flowers on nice long stems. The 
vigorous plants have clean, healthy foliage. 
$1.00 each. 
Vestal’s Torchlight. This 1939 novelty has nice 
form, lovely color, and a fine bushy plant that 
produces lots of bloom. The color is opalescent 
pink with a golden base to the petals. A grand 
garden Rose, and because of its fine form, beauti¬ 
ful coloring and good stems it is one of the nicest 
pink Roses for cutting. A bed of Torchlight will 
rnake a lovely garden picture and furnish quanti¬ 
ties of splendid cut-flowers all summer and fall. 
$1.00 each. 
Victoria Harrington. Cactus flowers of non¬ 
fading velvety dark red warmed with a golden 
flush down in the heart of the flower. Fine free- 
blooming plants.
