TRITOMA, Springtime (Page 72) 
A fascinating new hardy Tritoma which flowers in late 
June and July. The upper part of the flower is rich 
coral-red, the lower half ivory-yellow. These sparkling 
and clear contrasting colors hold one’s attention in a 
pleasing manner. It is hardy and will winter most any- 
where. Then there is Primrose Beauty, a beautiful prim- 
rose-yellow flower, Golden Scepter, a deeper yellow, and 
last but not least, Goldmine with many spikes of burn- 
ished coppery gold; ali of them hardy. 
VIOLA ODORATA, Semperflorens (Page 77) 
Sweet scented perpetual flowering. Semperflorens, or 
the perpetual flowering sweet-scented Viola blooms 
spring summer, and fall. While the flowers are not 
large, they are deliciously fragrant. 
VIOLA, Catherine Sharp (Page 77) 
The flowers are rich violet-blue with lots of character 
and style, grow on stiff stems long enough to permit 
their picking and use for cut flowers. Fine for winter 
flowering in cold frame. Maggie Mott is still the pale 
blue favorite. 
,  Everblooming Roses 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Heart’s Desire (Page 85) 
Selected by the All-America Rose Selections, Inc., as 
the Finest New Rose to Be Introduced in 1942. A mag- 
nificent red Rose with the constitution of Radiance. 
It’s the favorite for 1942. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Santa Anita (Page 85) 
Perfectly formed long pointed buds unfold into glorious 
flowers of crystal clear peach-blossom pink. A mag- 
nificent variety and strong grower as well as a tireless 
bloomer. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, California (Page 85) 
Selected by the All-America Rose Selections, Inc., as 
One of the Two Finest Roses Introduced in 1941. The 
color is a glorious shade of ruddy orange toned with 
saffron-yellow, with the exterior of the broad peta's 
overlaid with Saturn-rose—a dual tone effect of inde- 
scribable richness and beauty. 

Dianthus, Old Spice 
‘ 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Sterling (Page 92) 
Still holds a place of honor as one of the finest, if not 
the finest, pink Tea Roses. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Apricot Queen (Page 85) 
Selected by the All-America Rose Selections, Inc., as 
One of the Two Finest Roses Introduced in 1941. 
Orange and apricot at the base of the petals, merging 
to salmony rose and Phlox-pink in the fully developed 
bloom is descriptive as to color. The bud is long pointed. 
Climbing Roses 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Meda (Page 102) 
The outer petals are pale buff-shrimp-pink, increasing 
in intensity to a deeper and richer shading towards the 
center, until a beautiful tone of carmine-pink has been 
reached. The petals are stiff and shaped like sea shells. 
The buds are perfectly formed and open into Hybrid 
Tea-like flowers with high centers. The size of the 
flowers when fully open measures 3/2 to 4 inches across. 
The substance of the flower petals is astounding, it 
seems impossible to crush them. They withstand adverse 
weather, high winds without any damage. Last, but not 
least, the fragrance of this variety is delightful, almost 
spicy and very intense. 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Thor (Page 103) 
Thor might be called the climbing Crimson Glory. A 
superb climbing Rose, perfect bottle-green foliage, 
never any black spot or mildew, and in June magnifi- 
cent red Roses like you get from Hybrid Teas. 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Mercurius (Page 104) 
Mercurius is a large, cup-shaped, double flower, a 
mixture of shrimp-pink and pure pink with delicate 
undertones of yellow. Pillar Rose habit, very free flow- 
ering; unquestionably the outstanding kind of this color. 
Hercules, Federation, Polaris, Buff King, and Doubloons 
are all great favorites. Mabelle Stearns is being planted 
in greater quantities, and we now offer it in standard 
or Tree Rose form. You'll like it. 
Flowering Shrubs 
BUDDLEIA, Flaming Violet (Page 171) 
The most brilliant of the Butterfly Bushes. The flowers 
are colored an intense imperial purple or doge-violet, 
magnificent under electric light, and makes a big show 
in the garden. 
BUDDLEIA, Fascinating (Page 171) 
A soft orchid shaded variety, the best in this color, 
superb for cutting, and a beautiful garden plant. 
BUDDLEIA, Fortune (Page 171) 
Though introduced in 1939, it still is the best of the 
lilac-blue Buddleias. 
DAPHNE, Somerset (Page 6) 
During May and early June the plants are covered with 
delightfully scented blush-pink, star-shaped flowers. 
The fragrance is not unlike that of Daphne Cneorum. 
The foliage is rich dark green, giving the plants the 
effect of Boxwood, and it remains green until the be- 
ginning of March when the new leaves push the old 
ones off the branches. 
NEW CRIMSON WEIGELA, Bristol Ruby 
(Page 7) 
Makes a shapely plant with attractive rich green foli- 
age. Color is a soft ruby-red shading to garnet-crimson, 
extremely pleasing in effect and without harsh tone. 
Attaining a height of 6 to 7 feet at maturity, it makes 
a perfectly formed, well rounded specimen. 
OTHER NEW SHRUBS 
There are the new French Hybrid Lilacs. Also four of 
the best hardy, beautifully fruited Cotoneasters. The 
white- and red-fruited Tree Euonymus. Viburnum Burk- 
weodi in bloom at Tulip time with delightfully sweet 
scented, snowball-like flowers. Robinia Monument, 
offered for the first time, is a new upright growing 
pink-flowered Rose-Acacia. There is a new Mountain 
Ash, a new Weeping Birch, in fact, most of the Trees 
and Shrubs offered are new, or little known,
