New Rose CAVALIER (Plant Patent No. 402) 
CAVALIER is a Sport from Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, originated 
with SAMTMANN BROTHERS, Wyndmoor, Penna. 
The growing habits of this variety are similar to that of the parent, vigorous upright 
grower, long strong stems, glossy dark green foliage, and very prolific bloomer. Medium 
size, 30 to 35 petals, well formed. 
CAVALIER possesses several outstanding features among them are the slow and 
even opening of the bud, the exceedingly good lasting qualities of the flower after being 
cut, and the dark, leathery foliage. These features combine to make the variety parti- 
cularly adapted for shipping over long distances. 
The Distinctive Color Is Extraordinarily Rich and Brilliant and is very difficult 
to describe accurately, because no color plates showing its true colors are available in the 
standard color guides. We believe the nearest description is ‘‘A beautiful shade of burnt 
orange’’. When in tight bud the color is a combination of Scarlet and Coral Red, the 
color is evenly spread, as it opens more of the yellow and orange tone is shown. There is 
no rose among the list of varieties under cultivation with which to compare CAVALIER 
in color. It is entirely distinctive. 
CAVALIER has been thoroughly tested by Samtmann Brothers and also by Myers & 
Samtmann and found most satisfactory. 
CAVALIER is exceptionally popular with Retailers and Wholesalers.

REVELATION—Patented—(Evans City)—Introduced 1939 
REVELATION—The dark Rose Pink sport of Briarcliff, was introduced in 1939 and is 
daily becoming more popular with the growers who are growing it in quantity. 
It is a large, showy flower, long pointed bud, with long, heavy stems, splendid dark green 
foliage, and really a classy Rose. 
Its growing habits are all that can be desired. 
It is fragrant and an extra good keeper and shipper. 
It is a better producer than Briarcliff or Better Times. 
This Rose is not in the same color class as Briarcliff, but would be classed under medium 
dark pinks rather than medium light pink, as is Briarcliff. 
It is very uniform in color and retains its color during dark weather.
