Like the person it is named for, this Rose will endear itself perma¬ 
nently to the American people. It was actually grown by Will Rogers 
in his own garden. He preferred it to all other Roses. Its color is a 
fine, velvety red, deepening to black crimson-maroon. It is vigorous, 
prefers slight shade, blooms steadily, and is intensely fragrant “in 
the good old-fashioned way.” Potted plants only. $1.25 each

Cecil. Its clear yellow color and its perfect form combine to make this 
little Rose a veritable gem. A dependable variety of outstanding merit, 
and useful beyond words in competitive flower arrangements. 
Dainty Bess. The name of this charming Rose is indeed most appropriate. 
Its Clematis-like flowers measure 2J^ to 3 inches across. The flesh pink 
petals, with an odd old-rose tone on the backs, contrast charmingly with 
the large, flat clusters of dull crimson filaments that make up the centers. 
Very quaint and very lovely. 
Innocence. Wine red stamens, tipped with golden anthers, give great 
character to the enormous 12-petaled pure white flowers that curiously 
resemble Japanese Anemones. Plants are strongly branching and free- 
flowering. 
Irish Fireflame. The ruddy bronze foliage is an outstanding feature of this 
“best of all single Roses.” The brilliant orange and crimson buds open 
to flowers of soft golden apricot. A notable addition to any garden.
