An 
PeACE 
ONCE IN AWHILE a new rose is produced that is so outstanding 
it marks a definite period in rose history. Such roses as Radiance 
(1908), Los Angeles (1916), Talisman (1929), still among the most 
popular in our gardens, are examples. Not since the rose President 
Herbert Hoover was introduced in 1930, has there been a milestone 
in hybridizing like the creation in France, of the variety PEACE. 
For more than three years in our trial gardens at CALIFOR- 
NIA FLOWERLAND, the bushes and blooms of PEACE have been 
a sensation. We and visitors alike marvel at its nearly indescribable 
color. Rich yellow buds change to soft yellow, half-open blooms of 
beautiful form. Each petal has a cerise pink edge. As they open into 
PEACE also makes a magnificent tree 
CALEDONIA. Popular white 
very large and double, on 
ANZAC. A new rose of great vigor 
that will be a pleasure to have in 
your garden. Buds of fifty waxen 
petals, steeped in coral and 
washed with gold, that expand CHARLOTTE ARMSTRONG.

All America Rose Selection, 1945 
gorgeous five-inch flowers, the yellow blooms soften and the pink 
edge seems to deepen. Individual petals are large and of good sub- 
stance, gradually opening around a high center until the fully open 
flower, very double, shows a great center of tawny yellow. Although 
the bloom is unusually large, long lasting, and continuously fresh 
looking, its effect is always that of a delicate and almost ethereal 
loveliness. 
Not only is PEACE a decidedly different rose, but it also is 
superior in growth and blooming habit. Flowers are borne on long 
stems and are freely produced on vigorous bushes with shiny, almost 
holly-like foliage. Price . . . $2.50 
rose, which we furnish at $6.00 each.
