Rochester 
Both Rochester and Carillon were orig- 
inated by Dr. J. H. Nicolas in the 
Jackson & Perkins Co. Dept. of Plant 
Research. 

ROCHESTER 
(Plant Patent No. 131) 
One of the finest of all Floribundas, created in our own Department of Plant Research. Un- 
fortunately, printer’s ink cannot do justice to the very soft light yellow tones of this flower— 
you will like it even better than the shades shown in the picture. All season long, Rochester 
will give you enchanting blooms—'‘stardust refined to gold.’’ No other double Rose ever 
produced more blooms per plant, and a group of Rochesters is a continuous display of 
flowers, from early June till heavy frost. The bloom is medium large and double, with the 
breath-taking sensation of an oriental pearl mounted on gold—perfect in Hybrid Tea form. 
Rochester is remarkably hardy, sturdy and vigorous, with the cluster formation and free- 
blooming habit of Floribundas. 
Bloom.......00 bush Rose more prolific. Flowers..... exquisite very soft yellow contrast- 
Grows 2 ft. tall, often higher. ing with orange-carmine blush on

CARILLON 
(Plant Patent No. 136) 
Carillon is one of the best-loved Roses 
of all time. Like the symphonic thrill 
from the group of bells in a cathedral 
carillon, the fullest enjoyment of 
Carillon is made possible by planting 
in groups of 6 to 12 or more, for a 
magic carpet of lustrous coral-flame 
resting on glossy green foliage. Car- 
illon was so named because it is a 
singing Rose, cheerful yet restful 
with its entrancing flame and coral 
hues. This outstanding Floribunda, 
created by Dr. Nicolas, has a special © 
destiny in the gardens of a wat- — 
troubled world—where every possible 
note of cheer is so much eee: Most 
generous in bloom; grows best in 
North. The graceful semi-double 
blooms are large and fragrant, and the 
exquisite buds make handsome table 
arrangements and boutonnieres. 
Variety.....Floribunda par excel- 
lence; 24 to 30 in. tall. 
Blooms.....large, pleasingly fra- 
grant till frost.
