ROSES by TUTTLE BROS. 
Growers of the Best in Roses Since 1920! 
BUY PROVEN VARIETIES 
We wish to warn our friends against the many new varieties that are offered for sale each year with- 
out having been grown here long enough to prove their value. These roses are accompanied by glowing 
descriptions that are a strain not only upon one’s credulity, but his imagination as well. The most of 
these varieties are loudly proclaimed, sold at high prices and are forgotten tomorrow. If they aren't good 
we don't grow them. 
We retail only No. 1 stock graded according to the specifications set forth in the “Grades and Stan- 
dards Act” of the State of California. 
Since 1920 we have been growing roses in this locality. During this time we have acquired a fund of 
rose knowledge that has been quite valuable to us and which we will be most happy to pass along to you.

petals and pleasing fragrance combine to make a rose every- 
one should enjoy. The plant is bushy, vigorous and healthy.

Austrian Copper. One of the hardiest of the briar roses. 
The plants grow rapidly, are full and shrubby and require

early summer. An elegant specimen plant. Each, 75c.

quisite form. A constant succession of flowers are borne on 
long sturdy stems. Each, 50c.

Charlotte Armstrong. (Lammerts 1940). We agree with 
the originator that this is one of the most satisfactory roses 
introduced in years. The long deep red buds are of perfect 
form, the open bright pink flowers heavily double, the petals 
of surprising substance. The blooms borne on good cutting 
stems open slowly and last for days. Plant grows thriftily 
and is disease resistant. Patent rights reserved. Each, $1.50. 
Christopher Stone. (Robinson 1935). Most rose lovers are 
enthusiastic over this remarkable crimson scarlet»rose and 
well they may be for the sweetly fragrant flowers are large 
double and full petalled. The color darkens with age but 
does not “purple.” Lush deep green leaves and good stems 
for cutting. A most satisfactory rose for warm climates.

rich orange red and gold on the upper side of the petals and 
canary yellow on the reverse. Substantial buds on stout 
erect stems. Highly polished mildew proof foliage. Each, 50c.

increasing in popularity. Last year we were unable to supply

upright and robust and will supply surprising quantities of 
perfect cut flowers. Patent 38. Each, $1.00.

satiny pink form a single rose that everyone loves at first 
sight. Long narrow buds for cutting. Vigorous. Each, 50c. 
Dame Edith Helen. (Dickson 1926). While this variety has 
the disagreeable habit of dying back we simply cannot dis- 
card it for the long heavy pink buds and lustrous full petalled 
flowers borne on tall stiff stems, possess more character 
than any pink rose we know. Good fragrance. Each, 50c. 
Dickson’s Red. (Dickson, 1938). A glowing scarlet red rose 
that not only maintains its high color but blooms heavily and 
continuously through the hottest summer days. The flowers 
and buds are well shaped. Fragrant. Good stems with few 
thorns. Upright growth. Patent 376. Each, $1.00.

and gold, a riot of brilliant colors seen in but few good roses. 
The flowers and buds are borne on exceptionally strong 
maroon colored stems. Vigorous. Each, 50c. 
Duquesa de Peneranda. (Dot 1931). Our regard for this 
outstanding rose grows with each passing season. Either in 
bud or open flower it is almost perfection. Long pointed buds 
of apricot, tempered with yellow and pink, open into high 
centered flowers of astonishing form and substance. Brilliant 
glossy mildew proof foliage. Vigorous. Each, 50c. 
Eclipse. (Nicolas 1935). Slender buds of clear deep yellow 
that hold their brilliant color remarkably well. Strong stems 
and leathery foliage. Patent 172. Each, $1.00.

let that does not fade or turn purple. Long stems, delicious 
fragrance and abundant flowers. Its beauty increases with 
distance from the coast. Each, 50c. 
Etoile de Hollande. (Verschuren 1919). Ideal long deep red 
buds open into full high centered flowers of deep crimson. 
Dark leathery foliage is attractive at all times. Has been 
one of our best sellers for several seasons. Each, 50c. 
Feu Joseph Looymans. (lLooymans 1921). There is seldom 
a time from spring until fall that you cannot pick a bouquet 
of long yellow apricot and buff buds from this truly wonder- 
ful rose bush. As the petals open you will find them light on 
the tips, deepening gradually toward the base, making a 
rare combination of light and deeper shades. Bright green, 
mildew resistant foliage. Each, 60c.
