New Everblooming Roses 
MME. CHIANG KAI-SHEK (Page 83) 
Highest point winner in the 1943 All-America Rose 
trials. A lovely light clear canary-yellow Rose with per- 
fectly chiseled petals clasped in long, spiral buds that 
unfurl slowly into large, perfectly proportioned flowers. 
A true patrician with a haunting perfume like the China 
Tea Roses of long, long ago. 
DOUGLAS MacARTHUR (Page 84) 
This vigorous American Rose requires no coddling, asks 
no favors. It has grown well and proven its value and 
worth in all sections of our country. As a flag unfurls, 
the long, graceful, tulip-shaped buds open slowly into 
glorious flowers of fine proportion. To specify the color 
of this Rose in definite terms taken from color charts 
is impossible. Rose, gold and salmon are exquisitely 
blended into a flower of regal beauty. 
PEARL HARBOR (Page 85) 
Some of the remarkable features of this Rose are em- 
bodied in a plant of tremendous vigor, possibly un- 
equaled by any other Rose in commerce today. It will: 
grow and bloom freely under most adverse conditions 
and there is scarcely a period during the season when 
magnificent buds and flowers are not available for 
garden ornamentation or for cutting purposes. The 
flowers are borne on vigorous canes and the bud is ex- 
ceptionally long and pointed. The upper surface of the 
petals is a delicate shade of shell-pink, with golden- 
bronze shadings at the base. The outer, or reverse 
side of the petals, are vivid Tyrian rose. Last, but 
not least, Pearl Harbor is distinct from most other Hy- 
brid Tea Roses in the fact that the plant is practically 
thornless. 
ANZAC (Page 82) 
The vigorous growth of Anzac foretells the advent of 
many shapely buds and beautiful flowers. Buds of fifty 
waxen petals steeped in coral and washed with gold un- 
fold into perfectly formed camellia-like flowers. As these 
flowers expand, the original colors lighten, the golden 
flush at the base of the petals passes to yellow and coral 
changes to rosy Iake. The merging of these colors might 
well be compared with the ’’Rose”’ in the sky at dawn, 
just before the sun climbs over the eastern horizon. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Apricot Queen (Page 82) 
Selected by the All-America Rose Selections, Inc., as 
one of the two finest Roses introduced in 1941. Or- 
ange 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. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, California (Page 82) 
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 petals 
overlaid with Saturn-rose—a dual tone effect of in- 
describable richness and beauty. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Heart’s Desire (Page 82) 
Selected by the All-America Rose Selections, Inc., as 
the finest new Rose to be introduced in 1942. A 
magnificent red Rose with the constitution of Radiance. 
It’s the favorite of 1942. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Santa Anita (Page 82) 
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, Sterling (Page 89) 
Still holds a place of honor as one of the finest, if not 
the finest, pink Tea Roses. 
Climbing Roses 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Meda (Page 100) 
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. 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Thor (Page 101) 
{6} 
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 magnificent red 
Roses like you get from Hybrid Teas.
