786—Mary Margaret McBride 
' (Plant Patent No. 537.) Inspiring color, superb form and 
stout hardiness have made this Rose an All-America selec- 
tion. Named in honor of the famous radio commentator, 
= Mary Margaret McBride. The graceful, long, pointed buds 
are a deep salmon-pink, almost reddish in the fall and the 
suffusion of ,yellow becomes a rich gold 
at the base of the petals. As the flower 
slowly unfurls, the color lightens, but 
always retains its warm glow, and fin- 
ishes a lovely dawn-pink, almost too 
beautiful to describe. It has an interest- 
ing Rose fragrance which increases as 
the flower opens.

. 4790—Rex Anderson 
(Plant Patent No. 335.) The aristocrat of 
white Roses. A lovely, ivory-white exhibition 
Rose—unusually perfect in form—with 
ee fully double flowers which reach 
ae enormous size. Rex Anderson 
is considered by rosarians 
as the standard of com- 
parison for large white 
Roses. 

780—Countess Vandal 
(Plant Patent No. 38.) Perfect artistry in a Rose. One of the finest for floral 
arrangements. Outstanding favorite in the two-tone pinks, high in the popular- 
ity vote of ten leading Roses of America. Lovely, long, slender buds slowly open 
to high-centered flowers of infinite charm. Long, straight, sturdy stems are 
perfect for cutting and exhibition. 
785——Mandalay 
(Plant Patent applied for.) Molten gold forged into appealing, artistic grace. 
Flowers as large as 6 inches across. Long, pointed buds untold into a very 
large, high-centered bloom of clear, pure gold which remains gallantly un- 
dimmed throughout the life of the flower. With its heavy, very dark green 
foliage it is ideal either planted singly or in groups. Very hardy, always in bloom.
