“The Commander’s Rose” (Patented) 
A grand new Rose has come into being—a very vigorous, hardy, 
free blooming Rose. The name was not chosen at random. The 
new variety ‘’Douglas MacArthur’’ was chosen among many 
new Roses as an outstanding leader. Henceforth, this fine new 
variety shall be known as the ‘‘Douglas MacArthur Rose,”’ in 
honor of our leading American soldier. 
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. 
The strong bushes send up numerous shoots clothed with dark 
green, healthy foliage. As a flag unfurls, the long, graceful, 
Tulip-shaped buds open slowly into glorious flowers of fine pro- 
portion. 
To specify the color of this Rose in definite terms taken from 
color charts is impossible. Rose, gold and salmon are all ex- 
quisitely blended into a flower of regal beauty. 
When you pass in review of the Douglas MacArthur Roses in 
bloom in your garden and catch the beauty of their unfurling 
buds, you will surely snap to attention and give Douglas Mac- 
Arthur a most merited salute. Each $2.00 Doz. $20.00
