“Break O’ Day” Rose 
A New Type of Rose to Revolutionize the Rose Industry. 
“Break O’ Day”’ is the direct result of 35 years of Rose Breed- 
ing for the purpose of producing certain definite improvements 
in the rose family. The result is an entirely new type of rose 
never before produced. The flowers are very large, with 60 
petals, exquisitely fragrant and superior to anything in com- 
merce in Hybrid Tea Roses. The bush produces many times 
the number of flowers produced by the most vigorous Hybrid 
Tea Rose, being loaded with flowers all summer and fall. But § 
one of the greatest achievements in ‘““Break O’ Day” Rose is 
its life expectancy of 40 to 50 years. Instead of planting a 
hybrid tea rose to enjoy a few years of blossoms, you will now jj 
plant this new type of rose for a life-time of flowers. 
AND IT IS SUB-ZERO HARDY and will make 4 to 5 foot | 
specimens, three feet in diameter, constantly covered with — 
blossoms; or you may keep them trimmed back as desired. 
To reproduce this rose in color in the illustration at the left # 
was the despair of the artist, with its many changing salmon, 
apricot and pink tints, all blended together in a delightful 
harmony. The color leans more towards the pink tone and is 
much more handsome than the illustration. Extra Strong |

Lily Pons Rose 
“Lily Pons’ is the result of the same 35 years of cross 
breeding as ““Break O’ Day,” with all of its good qualities 
as described above. “Lily Pons”’ is the second of this new 
group of Sub-Zero Hardy Improved Hybrid Tea Roses. 
It is undoubtedly the greatest achievement in roses today. 
Such perfection was never seen in a rose before. 
It is a huge flower, as fine as the finest hothouse grown 
N rose as charming and brilliant as the voice of the singer for 
& whom it was named. The flowers are five and one-half inches 
across and freely produced all summer. The centre is yellow, 
shading to white outer petals.
