attention near the coast. $2.50. 

LOWELL THOMAS. R37. Plant Pat. 595. Of vi- 
brant chrome color, the vigorous growth and 
general dir of optimism about this glorious 
new Rose make it suitable to bear the name 
Lowell Thomas. Blooms open from beautiful 
buds, have a high center, the petals rolling 
ee making magnificent, glowing flowers.

PEACE. R.52. (Mme. A. Meilland.) Plant 
Patent No. 591. Offered this fall for the 
first time, this is the only rose to win the 
1946 All-America Rose Selections Award. 
One marvel of this rose is the range of 
colors through which it passes, from open- 
ing yellow buds, with edges picoted 
cerise, to glorious five-inch blooms of ala- 
baster-white. Each petal is edged with 
pink that seems to deepen as the flowers 
slowly open. Though the bloom is un- 
usually large, its effect is that of a deli- 
cate and almost ethereal loveliness. The 
large individual petals gradually open, a 
few at a time, around a high-pointed cen- 
ter heart of tawny yellow. 
The vigorous plant is as superior as the 
bloom, with clean, holly-like glossy foli- 
age. Flowers, borne singly on strong 
straight stems, are unusually long lasting. 
For best results, the partially-opened buds 
should be cut when pink begins to show 
in the margin of the petals. Blooms are 
produced in succession throughout the 
season. A single plant shows, at one time, 
bloom in various stages of opening and 
changing colors—canary yellow, pale 
gold, cream, ivory and alabaster-white; 
cerise, soft rose, apple-blossom pink and 
finally, a soft pink-lavender. We recom- 
mend this rose for all sections without 
reservation. Price $2.50 each.
