Hybrid Cea Roses 
Here we list only the very choicest and most popular varieties of Tea Roses, with 
the majority of which every lover of the Rose is familiar. Duplicates as well as in- 
erior varieties have been discontinued. All are good growers and free flowering 
and will provide you with an ample supply of blooms throughout the summer. There 
is not one individual sort which we cannot endorse as possessing superior merit. 
All are two-year-old, XX No. 1 grade. The finest stock available. 


Apricot Queen (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Awarded All-America Rose Selection, 1940.) A lovely combination of 
colors is to be noted in this glorious new Rose. Orange and apricot 
at the base of the petals, merging to salmony rose and Phlox-pink 
in the fully developed bloom is descriptive. The bud is long-pointed. 
The fully developed flower shows a regular, well-placed petal ar- 
rangement. A good strong grower, with handsome, leathery foliage 
dea serves as a splendid foil to the perfectly formed buds and open 
oom. 

Anzac _ (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Has all the qualifications of a winner: vigor, ruggedness and de- 
pendabilty. When the season for action arrives, Anzac will go over 
the top, and wherever established, will hold its ground with the best 
of Roses in your garden. Anzac, like the Douglas MacArthur, needs 
no coddling. Give Anzac the ordinary requisites that Roses require: 
water, nourishing food and a clean soil—and you will be more than 
gratified with the successful results. Anzac, ‘The Soldier’s Rose,’’ 
will always do its duty in your garden. 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 unfold 
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 the coral changes to rosy lake. 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. 
Better Times (Plant Patent No. 23) Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
Beautiful long crimson buds open into large, double, brilliant cerise-red 
flowers with a delicate fragrance. Has exceptionally long stems. Blooms 
most profusely. 
Betty Uprichard Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
One of those delightfully contrastive types; the outside a blend of deep 
toned carmine with coppery orange, the interior being mostly a delicate 
salmon-pink. 
Caledonia Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
The most desirable white; exceptionally long, pointed bud opening to a 
very double, high-centered, long-lasting, very large, moderately fragrant 
flower. Continuous free bloomer. 

California (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Awarded All-America Rose Selection, 1940.) We regard this sensa- 
tional novelty as outstanding among the numerous varieties we have 
contributed to the Rose world through our efforts in plant breeding. 
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 indescribable richness and beauty. Buds long 
and pointed, flowers of enormous size, reaching a diameter of five to 
six inches. Growth vigorous, with healthy, glossy green foliage. 

Charlotte Armstrong (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Awarded All-America Rose Selection, 1940.) A Rose of a most unusual 
color, blood-red in the bud, opening to cerise in hot weather and to 
spectrum-red in cool weather, while the beautiful shape and extreme 
length of the buds, with its long, clasping sepals and the extreme florif- 
erousness and vigor of growth and large, luxurious foliage, make it a 
most satisfactory Rose in all respects. The bud is long and pointed; the 
flower is 3 or 4 inches in diameter, high-centered, never showing the 
center. The foliage is leathery, semi-glossy, deep green and highly re- 
sistant to mildew. 
Christopher Stone Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
Large, semi-double, vivid scarlet_ flowers overlaid with velvety crimson. 
Has a delicious old rose scent. Of vigorous, upright growth with bright 
green foliage. 
Commando Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
The lovely flower is a marvel of delicacy. Huge flowers of the most 
delicate EyIOREOIR with brilliant yellow toward the base of the petals, 
lighting up the effect with incandescence. A fine new variety worthy 
of a place in every garden. 
Condesa de Sastago Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

Condesa Vandal (Plant Patent No. 38) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00

ened with salmon. The blooms are borne on long stems. 
Crimson Glory (Plant Patent No. 150) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
The plants branch freely, producing a well-spread yet compact bush 
of good symmetry. Following the large, urn-shaped buds are the well- 
formed flowers of an intense deep vivid crimson shaded oxblood-red 
and mellowed by a soft velvety nap. 

Dame Edith Helen Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
Shapely buds and substantial, high-centered blooms of clear pink, 
sweetly scented and freely produced on long, strong stems. Vigorous.

Douglas MacArthur (Patented) 
Extra fine plants, No. 1 XX quality: Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
“The Commander’s Rose.’’ 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 which are loaded with an unbelievable number of 
buds. 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 all exquisitely blended into a flower of 
regal beauty. 

Duquesa de Penaranda Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
This glorious Rose produces two distinct types of flowers. During the 
summer the pointed buds are a blend of apricot-orange and dark pink, 
opening to splendid blooms of coppery apricot. In the autumn great 
brownish buds open slowly to finely formed flowers of a luscious cinna- 
mon-peach color, truly enchanting to visitors to our gardens who delight 
in the new art shades. It is sweetly perfumed and one of the loveliest 
Roses for cutting. 
Eclipse. (Plant Patent No. 172) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Golden yellow. An entirely new type, with ‘‘stream-lined’’ buds which 
often exceed 2 inches in length, ornamental with narrow, branching 
sepals which contrast harmoniously with the gold of the petals. You can 
depend on ‘’Eclipse’’ for almost continuous bloom on strong, upright 
plants with healthy, dork green foliage. The flowers are produced on 
long, erect stems, suitable for cutting. 
Edith Nellie Perkins Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

orous, free flowering habit. 
Etoile de Hollande Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

very fragrant. Free flowering. 
Faience Each $1.25, Doz. $12:50 
Two-tone soft peach and cadmium-yellow. Faience is the name of a 
famous pottery, noted for its iridescent colors. Exquisite form, from the 
long, tapering bud to full-petaled, opening bloom. Buds are cadmium- 
yellow at the base which gradually shades to shrimp-pink at the edges 
of the petals. As the blooms unfold, the inside of the outer petals is 
an artistic China-pink, which deepens toward the center of the flower 
to shining coppery rose. The reverse of the petals is cadmium-yellow 
lightly veined with pink. 
Golden Dawn Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
The ideal yellow garden Rose. The ovoid, lemon-yellow bud, heavily 
splashed with crimson, develops into a well-formed, sweetly scented, 
large, double sunflower-yellow flower that reminds of the old favorite 
Marechal "Niel. Vigorous, free flowering. 
Grand Duchess Charlotte (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selection, 1942.) This Rose aristocrat pro-. 
vides a color unknown in any other Rése. The beautiful, long, stream- 
lined buds are glowing morocco-red and epen to 25 firm-petaled 
blooms of dusky coral-red which do not fade, and gradually merge 
to a soft coral-pink. When unfolding, the petals recurve and make a 
delightfully informal, artistic flower with a-hint of Carnation fra- 
grance. rays
