The following varieties, except where noted, 2-yr. field-grown budded plants, 65c each; 12 for $6.75, 
postpaid. 50 or more at 50c each, by Express collect 
Texas Centennial. Plant Pat. No. 162. This 
sport of President Herbert Hoover has Hoover’s 
strong growth, long stems, fine form and fragrance, 
but the color is Oriental red with a touch of gold 
at the base, and ages deep rich pink. 75c each. 
Vestal’s Coral Gem. The vigorous plants branch 
freely, developing a full rounded plant which 
naturally is a free bloomer. So far we have not 
noticed either black-spot or mildew. The large, 
slightly globular, cupped flowers are a rare com- 
bination of geranitum-red flushed orange with 
orange bases to the petals. The fragrance is mild. 
The bicolor Roses are popular everywhere and this 
is one of the loveliest of all of them. We believe 
you will like it. $1.00 each, postpaid. 
Vestal’s Red. We introduced this Rose just a year 
or two ago and it is making many friends among 
our customers. It is a large flower of conventional 
form, and the blooms are produced on nice long 
stems. The plants are vigorous and carry clean, 
healthy foliage. Flowers are fragrant, nice for 
cutting, and really good to Iook at in the garden. 
It is a nice Rose. $1.00 each, postpaid. 

Vestal’s Torchlight. This 1939 novelty has nice 
form, lovely color, and a fine bushy plant that 
produces lots of bloom. The color is opalescent 
pink with a golden base to the petals. A grand 
garden Rose, and because of its fme form, beauti- 
ful coloring and good stems it is one of the nicest 
pink Roses for cutting. A bed of Torchlight will 
make a lovely garden picture and furnish quanti- 
ties of splendid cut-flowers all summer and fall. 
$1.00 each, postpaid. See color illustration on 
page 13. 
Victoria Harrington. This starts out with black- 
ish red buds which open to informal blooms of 
velvety dark red, warmed with a golden flush in 
the heart of the flower. When fully developed 
the flower is very much of a cactus bloom and the 
red color is unfading. It has an intense spicy 
fragrance. Growth is good and it is a generous 
bloomer. See color illustration on page 8. 
Warrawee. Plant Pat. 140. Beautiful shell-pink 
flowers with the spicy fragrance of the old clove 
pinks. The plants are strong, bushy, and have 
profuse foliage. They are wonderful bloomers. 
25 petals, $1.00 each, postpaid. 
Wize Polyantha Roses 
Two-yr. field-grown budded plants, 65c each; 12 for $6.75, postpaid except Rosa Rouletti 
These are the true everbloomers, furnishing quantities of colorful bloom all season long. They require 
little care beyond keeping the faded flowers cut. Plant them in groups or solid beds for effect. 
Baby Doll (Tip-Top). Perfect little buds and 
blooms of bright golden yellow, tipped with 
sparkling crimson, borne in clusters. 
Cecile Brunner (Sweetheart Rose). Dainty, 
perfectly shaped buds of excellent rose-pink tinged 
with salmon, borne in graceful sprays continu- 
ously. Popular for cutting. See color illustration 
on page 13. 
Chatillon Rose. Brilliant pink, semi-double flow- 
ers in gigantic clusters which make a magnificent 
show on dwarf plants. A dependable, continuous 
bloomer. See in color on page 13. 
Ellen Poulsen. Small, double, brilliant pink 
flowers in huge clusters on bushy plants. One of 
the first of the large-flowered Polyanthas and still 
one of the best. 
Else Poulsen. This is one of the new tall-growing 
Polyanthas, 3 feet or more in height, with medium- 
sized, semi-double flowers of a lovely shade of 
bright rose-pink; slightly fragrant. Very hardy 
ane a continuous bloomer. 
George Elger. Daintiest, loveliest yellow Poly- 
antha. The bright yellow buds develop into pale 
creamy yellow flowers. 
Gloria Mundi. A striking new baby Rose of 
blazing orange-scarlet. Very showy and _spec- 
tacular in the garden. This is the brightest of the 
orange-scarlet Polyanthas and holds its color the 
best of all of them. 

Gruss an Aachen. Reddish pink and gold flowers 
of Hybrid Tea quality, borne on dwarf, compact 
plants. A splendid bedding Rose which can be 
used either as a Polyantha or a Hybrid Tea, and 
the flowers are nice for cutting. 
Ideal. The tiny dark glowing scarlet-crimson 
flowers are shaded with black and are borne in 
tremendous bunches on a_ vigorous branching 
plant. There are several dark red Polyanthas but 
we believe Ideal to be the best one. 
Improved Lafayette. Large, double flower of 
glowing red suffused with vivid crimson. Upright 
branching plants which bloom just about all the 
time. See in color on page 13. 
Katharina Zeimet. Small, double, fragrant flowers 
of pure white in large clusters. Dwarf, bushy 
plants. The best white Polyantha. 
Mrs. R. M. Finch. The finest Polyantha of its 
type. Rather large, semi-double flowers of bright 
pink, aging lighter. Grows 2 to 3 feet high. 
Perle d’Or. Perfectly formed little Roses of light 
orange, changing to cream. Dwarf plant. 
Rosa Rouletti. Little, double, pink flowers less than 
an inch across on a low, branchy plant. Put in 
poor soil in the rock-garden and it will stay 
small; in ordinary rich soil it will grow a foot tall, 
making a splendid Polyantha. 
Own-root plants, 50c each; 12 for $5.00, postpaid. 
1 plant each of the 14 Polyanthas ($8.95 value) for $7.50, postpaid
