“THE BEST IN ROSES” 
11 
COUNTESS OF SASTAGO (P. Dot 1932) $ .50 
A Spanish novelty carrying the vivid colors of the brilliant species rose, 
Austrian Copper. The flower is a deep reddish copper on the inside of the 
petals with a reverse of deep yellow; moderately large, double, fragrant rose 
and borne on long strong stems. The bush is an exceptionally strong upright 
grower with an abundance of thick, leathery, glossy foliage that is disease 
resistant. 
CYNTHIA (Verschuren-Pectold 1933) $ .50 
The bloom of Cynthia reminds one of an improved Chas. P. Kilham. The long 
pointed buds open to a splendid flower of rich Oriental red. Very fine as a 
cut flower and a prolific bloomer. The bush is a vigorous medium height 
grower (3 ft.) with heavy dark green foliage. 
DAINTY BESS $ .50 
Considered by many to be the best single rose. A medium size flower with 
crinkled and wavy petals of a soft rose pink. The bright crimson stamens 
make a very pleasing contrast. A good cut flower if cut in bud. A vigorous 
upright grower and prolific bloomer. 
DIANE DE BROGLIE (C. Chambard 1929) $ .50 
One of our most beautiful roses. A medium size, pointed bud opening to a 
double, moderately fragrant flower of a beautiful shade of coral apricot with 
no other shadings. A vigorous upright grower with large glossy disease re¬ 
sistant foliage. 
DICKSQN^S PERFECTION (Dickson 1937) $1.00 
In the two years we have had this rose, we have regarded it highly. The color 
is rather unusual and can best be described as a shrimp pink overlaid with 
orange madder and merging to an orange yellow. 
DUCHESS OF ATHOLL (Dobbie 1928) $ .50 
A most attractive rose in bud, but quickly opens. A medium size, ovoid bud of 
deep bronze opening to a large, cupped, fragrant flower of golden bronze 
flushed with pink. A vigorous spreading grower with clean, glossy, disease 
resistant foliage. 
DUCHESS OF PENARANDA (P. Dot 1931) $ .60 
Without a doubt, one of the finest roses in commerce today. Duchess of 
Penaranda offers two distinct shades to its admirers. In the spring and 
summer the large pointed buds open to a large, double flower of coppery 
apricot and sometimes showing a dark pink cast. In the fall, the color is 
deeper and shows more of the bronzy shades. Regardless of when you see it 
the bloom is exquisite and fades but little. Quite fragrant. Not alone is the 
flower beautiful, as the foliage is just as lovely and very free of disease. The 
bush is a very strong, upright grower and a prolific bloomer. Excellent in all 
localities. 
E. G. HILL (Hill 1929) $ .50 
A very large rose of dazzling scarlet shading to a deeper red. Very double and 
exceedingly fragrant. Excellent as a cut floAver. A moderate grower and free 
bloomer. One of the best reds. 
EMPRESS (Cbaplin 1933) $ .60 
A beautifully formed exhibition type double flower of bright rose pink, borne* 
singly on a long strong stem. A vigorous, upright grower (4 ft.) with dark 
leathery foliage. Foliage not abundant, which sometimes gives the plant a 
leggy appearance. Awarded Clay cup for fragrance. Excellent cut flower.
