THE CHIEF (Dr. Lammerts 1940) $1.25; 3 for $3.40- 
We are very enthusiastic about this rose for several reasons. The very long 
pointed buds almost always come singly on a strong stem. The color in bud 
form is from deep rose to flame, opening to a very large flower of flame, coral 
and copper. Quite fragrant. The plant is a vigorous spreading grower and 
very disease resistant. Patent applied for.

A climbing sport of the ever popular bush variety. Pat. applied for. 
RLTH ALEXANDER (Rena Wilber 1936) $1.25; 3 for $3.15- 
The color of the beautiful buds is all we said of it before, but we did find the 
buds open quickly. The buds are long and pointed and of cadmium orange, 
topped with peach red. The sepals hold tightlj^ to the petals, which adds 
greatly to its beauty. In the open flower the color is a soft orange with brick 
red stamens. The foliage is just as lovely as the flower, a deep green and as 
glossy as though it had been varnished. A very strong grower. An excellent cut 
hower. Patent No. 178. Blooms usually twice. Recommended for cool climate.
