Patent No. 191. 
SATURNIA (Aicardi 1934) $1.00; 3 for $2.50* 
For brilliancy of color, Saturnia should satisfy the critic. The large beautifully 
formed semi-double flowers are a brilliant cardinal red with a reverse of 
salmon, yellow and copper, a most striking combination. Plant is a vigorous 
grower with dark green leathery foliage. Plant Patent No. 349. 
SIGNORA (Aicardi 1934) $1.00; 3 for $2.50* 
This rose from Italy is a real masterpiece, in both plant and bloom. Long

TEXAS CENTENNIAL 
(Dixie Rose Co. 1935) $ .60; 3 for $1.50* 
Texas Centennial is a sport of the popular rose President Hoover. Type of 
growth is the same although it appears to have more and better foliage. Quite 
prolific in bloom. Flowers are a brick red, having a faint tinge of gold, with 
a lighter center. This rose has shown up very well. A splendid exhibition rose. 
Plant Patent No. 162. 
THE CHIEF (Dr. Lammerts 1940) $1.00; 3 for $2.50* 
We are very enthusiastic about this rose for several reasons. The very long 
pointed buds almost always come singly on a strong stem. The color in bud 
form is from deep rose to flame, opening to a very large flower of flame, coral 
and copper. Very fragrant. The plant is a vigorous spreading grower and 
very disease resistant. Patent No. 456. 
WARAWEE (Mrs. H. C. Fitzhardinge) $1.00; 3 for $2.50* 
A beautiful long pointed bud of flesh pink shaded rose. Flower is large and

WORLD’S FAIR (Kordes 1938) $1.00; 3 for $2.50* 
A large flowering semi-double deep crimson rose borne in medium size clusters. 
Makes a most impressive sight. Plant is upright in growth with large leathery 
foliage. Mildews in some locations. Plant Patent No. 262. 
ZULU QUEEN (Kordes 1939) $1.25 each; 3 for $3.15* 
When Zulu Queen is at its best, there are few red roses that compare with it. 
The color is a very deep red with black shadifigs. The rose has fine form and 
is fragrant. The plant, however, is nothing to shout about, only a medium 
grower with fair foliage.
