A Rose to Revolutionize 
“Break O’ Day” is the direct result of 35 years of rose breeding 
for the purpose of producing certain definite improvements in 
the rose family. The result is an entirely new type of rose 
never before produced. Tbe flowers are very large, with 60 
petals, exquisitely fragrant and superior to anything in com¬ 
merce in Hybrid Tea roses. The bush produces many times 
the number of flowers produced by the most vigorous Hybrid 
Tea rose, being loaded with blossoms all summer and fall. 
But one of the greatest achievements produced in “Break O’ 
Day” Bose is its life expectancy of 40 to 50 years. Instead of 
planting a Hybrid Tea rose for a few years’ blooms, you will 
now plant this new type rose for a lifetime of flowers. 
AND IT IS SUB-ZEBO HABDY and will make 4 to 5 foot 
specimen shrubs three feet in diameter, constantly covered 
with blossoms; or you may keep them trimmed back as 
desired. To reproduce tbe color in the illustration at the right 
was the despair of the artist, with its many changing coral, 
orange, salmon, pink, and apricot tints all blended together 
in beautiful harmony. Extra strong, two year old, field grown 
“Cream Quality” plants $1..50 each. 
Mily Pons’’^ Rose 
(Patent Rights Reserved) 
“Lily Pons” is the result of the same 35 years of cross breeding 
as “Break O’ Day” with all of its good qualities as described 
above. “Lily Pons” is the second of this new group of Sub- 
Zero Hardy Improved Hybrida Tea Type Roses. It is un¬ 
doubtedly tbe greatest achievement in roses today. Such 
perfection was never seen in a rose before. It is a huge flower, 
finer than the finest hot-house grown rose, as charming and 
brilliant as the singer’s voice. The flowers are five and one-half 
inches across and are produced freely all summer. The center 
is yellow shading to white outer petals. $1.50 each.
