ROSES by TUTTLE BROS. 
Growers of the Best in Roses Since 1920! 
BUY PROVEN VARIETIES 
Again we present you our list of representative roses suitable for growing in Southern California. 
\Ve know these roses as we know our own children—our daughter suggests we may know them better, 
and she may be right at that. We do not handle all of the good varieties—neither can any other grower— 
there are far too many. However, the sorts we do list, with two exceptions, have been grown here success- 
fully for several seasons at least, most of them for many seasons. 
There will be a number of new roses on the market again this year. We have had the opportunity to 
observe some of those that will be widely advertised. With most of them we are quite disappointed. 
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.

are blended into a brilliant rose of medium size and ex- 
quisite form. A constant succession of flowers are borne on 
long sturdy stems. Each, 60c.

ing salmon pink flowers. The bushy, mildew-resistant plant -

Cecile Brunner. Lovely miniature blush pink buds of per- 
fect form. Each. 75c. 
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, $1.25. 
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. 
Each, 75c. 
Condesa de Sastago. (Dot 1933). A fiery combination of 
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, 75c. 
Countess Vandal. (Leenders 1932). Has been continually 
increasing in popularity. Last year we were unable to supply 
the demand. Long salmon rose buds of ideal form open into 
full high centered flowers of the same color. The plant is 
upright and robust and will supply surprising quantities of 
perfect cut flowers. Patent 38. Each, $1.00. 
Crimson Glory. We grew this rose some time ago, but en- 
joying only indifferent success we discontinued it. We re- 
alize now we were too hasty. While the plant is spreading 
rather than upright, it grows thriftily and produces tight, 
perfect buds and exquisite roses, deep velvety crimson, shaded 
maroon. Sweet fragrance. Patent 105. Each, $1.00. 
Dainty Bess. (Archer 1925). Daintily ruffled petals of 
satiny pink form a single rose that everyone loves at first 
sight. Long narrow buds for cutting. Vigorous. Each, 75c. 
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, 75c. 
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, $1.25.
