PORT STOCKTON NURSERY Reses 1941-1942 CATALOG 
THE FINEST YELLOW CLIMBING ROSE 
Maid of Gold—(Frank C. Raffel, 1936. Plant patent No. 246.)—A yellow rose which 
gives you roses every month of the rose season. This new hybrid-tea climber is 
our origination, a seedling of Climbing Golden Emblem, but grows much more grace- 
ful, blooms freer and more continually than the parent variety. Has glossy mildew- 
resistant foliage. The buds are golden yellow, splashed with red, opening to large, 
very double, golden yellow flowers with 70 to 80 petals that lighten in color very 
little in the hottest sun. There is no other yellow rose we know of that keeps its 
color like this one. 
A row of plants of this variety growing on a long trellis at our nursery is a glittering 
mass of gold in both Spring and Fall, with some flowers during the Summer months. 
The plant seldom produces seed, therefore it is not necessary to cut the old flowers 
off. 
We recommend it as the finest of all yellow climbing roses. Heavy No. 1 grade bushes, 
75c each; 3 for $2.00; $7.50 per dozen. Postage same as on page 4. Read page 1 
before ordering.

SOIL TEST SERVICE 
The members of the American Rose Society are familiar with the soil test service of 
Harry L. Daunoy, 26 Farnham Place Metairie, New Orleans, La. Through this service 
roses have been made to succeed in many sections of the Country where they had 
previously failed. Daunoy has tested soil samples and made suggestions of soil treat- 
ment for members of the American Rose Society in 40 of our 48 states and in most 
cases improvement has followed. Rose lovers who have not been able to succeed 
growing good roses are recommended to try this service. Mr. Daunoy has agreed 
to give Port Stockton Nursery customers the same rate as members of the American 
Rose Society. Those wishing this service send 1 lb. of soil and $2.00 which is the 
charge direct to Mr. Daunoy.
