STOCK EARLY COLONIAL BRANCHING 
“ROSE STANDISH” 
Since the introduction of our new branching type Stock last year, we have 
had many inquiries for a rose with this same flowering habit. It is now our 
pleasure to offer Rose Standish, a large flowered bright rose, in the Early Colo- 
nial type. 
This Early Colonial Stock does not produce a center spike, so therefore re- 
quires no pinching to make it branch. From the base of each plant, eight to ten 
heavy thirty-inch branches spread out and produce a plant twenty inches in 
diameter. Large two inch florets are typical of this new strain and they form 
clusters or spikes fifteen inches long. Doubles percentage will average better 
than 70%. 
Rose Standish is a fine color for cutting and one that shows off to ad- 
vantage under artificial light. We predict a brilliant future for this exclusive 
branching style of Stock.
