President Herbert Hoover. (Coddington 1930). Has all of 
the qualities necessary to a good rose; large well formed 
buds and flowers, strong color, some fragrance, strong erect 
stems. And besides this it is the strongest growing good 
rose of our acquaintance. The buds are a vivid orange scarlet, 
opening into lively shades of orange and pink. Before the 
flower falls the orange changes to a creamy pink. Each, 50c. 
Radiance. (Cook 1908). This rose was introduced over 30 
years ago. We would not be at all surprised to hear that 
bushes from the first plantings were still in existence. For 
it is an almost unbelievably hardy and long lived variety. 
The round tight buds and cup-shaped flowers, rosy pink 
without and soft pink within, are borne perfectly on strong 
stems even in intensely hot weather. Each, 50c. 
Red Radiance. (Gude 1916). A cerise red sport of the fore- 
going variety that boasts the same excellent characteristics. 
Bach 50c: 
_ Rosa Hugonis. An excellent rose for the shrub border as 
it grows to 6 feet, forming a thicket of splendid foliage and 
in early spring is covered with single, clear yellow flowers 
about 2 inches across. Requires practically no attention ex- 
cept thinning out of old canes once in a while. Each, 65c. 
Rosa Rouletti. Tiny deep pink buds and small blush pink 
roses (less than ™%-in. across)—the sweetest little double 
flowers imaginable. Compact round 6-in. bush. Thoroughly 
effective in pots or to border beds as they bloom from spring 
until winter. Each, 60c. 
Rose Marie. (Dorner 1918). Bears profuse quantities of 
long true rose pink buds that open slowly into double cup- 
shaped flowers. Good stems, vigorous growth and remark- 
able fragrance. Each, 50c. 
Signora. (Aicardi 1936). Long dazzling orange scarlet buds 
of perfect shape and substance. The open flowers, of velvety 
texture, are orange scarlet and gold. Extremely vigorous, 
varnished foliage. Blooms heavily. Patent 201. Each, $1.00. 
Sir Henry Segrave. (Dickson 1932). A pale lemon yellow 
rose remarkable for long shapely buds and the full form of 
high centered flowers. Exceedingly hardy and free blooming. 
Lush foliage. Delicious fragrance. Each, 50c. 
Sister Therese. (Gillot 1930). Perfect chrome yellow, 
tinged with carmine and clean golden yellow flowers on a 
vigorous free branching bush. Much stronger growing and 
heavier blooming than most yellow roses. Good leathery 
bright green foliage. Intriguing fragrance. Each, 50c. 
Southport. (McGredy 1933). While this variety does not 
have as many petals (20) as some other roses, the superb 
scarlet buds, more brilliant than we know how to tell you, 
are long and perfect in form and borne on good strong stems. 
Grows upright and luxuriantly. Mild, sweet fragrance. Each, 
50c. 
Susan Louise. (Adams 1929). A vigorous small flowered 
edition of the long popular Belle of Portugal. Streamlined 
flesh pink buds of great value for cutting. Each, 50c. 
Talisman. (Montgomery Co. 1929). A glorious riot of red 
burnt orange and gold. It is hard to imagine so much color 
and symmetry in one rose bud and such charming fragrance, 
too. It has a pleasing habit of upright growth and long 
stiff bright green stems. Each, 50c. 
Texas Centennial. (Dixie Rose 1935). A popular sport of 
Pres. Hoover that changes with the seasons but is spectac- 
ular at all times. During cool weather the buds are blood- 
red, changing to carmine in warmer weather. Tight buds 
and bright high centered fowers on stiff stems that will 
charm you with their loveliness. Has all of the remarkably 
strong growing characteristics of Hoover. Each, 75c. 
The Chief. (Lammerts 1940.) Buds of deep rose open to 
full flowers of copper, coral and flame, which change to lovely 
shades of orange-pink before the petals fall. Rich fragrance. 
A spreading plant. Vigorous and mildew resistant. Patent 
rights reserved. Each $1.25. 
Treasure Island. (Raffel 1938). One of the most remark- 
able roses of recent introduction. Crisp velvety textured 
petals of coppery salmon form long buds of perfect form. 
The open salmon pink flowers are of ideal shape, high cen- 
tered and indispensable for cutting. Grows more vigorously 
and blooms more freely than Countess Vandal which it re- 
sembles in both color and form. Each, 75c. 
Ulrich Brunner. (Levet 1882). Enormous double cherry 
red flowers possessed of a sweet lasting fragrance. It is not 
at all unusual to cut flowers with 2 to 3 ft. stems. Vigorous 
and long lived. Each, 50c. 
Victoria Harrington. (Thomas 1931). A magnificent dark 
red rose that holds its warm color until the last petals have 
fallen. The bush is apt to be a little lazy the first season, but 
thereafter grows vigorously and blooms heavily. Buds are 
long and perfectly formed and the glowing flowers are 
spicily fragrant. We consider it one of the very finest reds. 
Each, 50c. 
Ville de Paris. (Pernet-Ducher 1926). There is hardly a 
time during the season that you cannot cut a charming 
bouquet of unfading sunflower yellow roses from this va- 
riety. The buds and flowers borne on a husky branching 
bush, are substantial and well formed. Each, 50c. 
World’s Fair. (Kordes 1938). From spring until winter, 
furnishes a continuous display of rich velvety scarlet blooms 
which at times almost hide the bush. We are surprised at 
the way the flowers hold their rich scarlet color in rather 
discouraging weather. Each, $1.00.

dark, glossy green.
