New Everblooming Roses 
MME. CHIANG KAI-SHEK (Page 81) 
Highest point winner in the 1943 All-America Rose 
trials. A lovely light clear canary-yellow Rose with per- 
fectly chiseled petals clasped in long, spiral buds that 
unfurl slowly into large, perfectly proportioned flowers. 
A true patrician with a haunting perfume like the China 
Tea Roses of long, long ago. 
DOUGLAS MacARTHUR (Page 78) 
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. As a flag unfurls, 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Commando (Page 82) 
This lovely flower is a marvel of delicacy. Huge flowers 
of the most delicate salmon-pink with briliant yellow 
toward the base of the petals, lighting up the effect 
with incandescence. A fine new variety worthy of a 
place in every garden. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Mirandy (Page 84) 
The first place winner of the All-America Rose Com- 
petition for 1945. A gorgeous fragrant red Rose that 
takes its place with the finest red Roses of the world. 
_ The big, ovoid buds, often long-pointed, are deep, rich, 
dark red with black shadings, opening to a gorgeous 
Chrysanthemum-red. 

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 exquisitely 
blended into a flower of regal beauty. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Heart’s Desire (Page 80) 
Selected by the All-America.Rose Selections, Inc., as 
the finest new Rose to be introduced in 1942. A 
magnificent red Rose with the constitution of Radiance. 
It was the favorite of 1942. 
PEACE (Page 77) 
This Rose is almost unbelievable. One marvel of it is 
the dawnlike range of colors through which it passes, 
from opening yellow buds, with edges picoteed cerise, 
to the glorious 5-inch, alabaster blooms, each petal 
edged with pink that seems to deepen as the flower 
slowly opens. The shades of color vary, too, from flower 
to flower and through the changing seasons. Though 
the bloom is unusually large, long lasting and constantly 
fresh looking, its effect is always delicate and lovely. 
HYBRID TEA ROSE, Sterling (Page 81) 
Still holds a place of honor as one of the finest, if not 
the finest, pink Tea Roses. 
Climbing Roses 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Meda (Page 94) 
The outer petals are pale buff-shrimp-pink, increasing 
in intensity to a deeper and richer shading towards the 
center, until a beautiful tone of carmine-pink has been 
reached. The petals are stiff and shaped like sea shells. 
SHANGRI-LA (Page 80) 
The long pointed buds of Shangri-la are perfect and 
upon opening show a rare combination of tints and 
shades; blush, salmon and rose delicately blended yet 
clear and sparkling like dawn itself. The bushes are 
vigorous with ample dark rich green foliage as well as . 
fine stems for cutting. 
It is our firm belief that the color and freshness of 
Shangri-la will brighten your rose horizon for many a 
NEW HORVATH ROSE, Thor (Page 95) 
Thor might be called the climbing Crimson Glory. A 
superb climbing Rose, perfect bottle-green foliage, never 
any black spot or mildew, and in June magnificent red 
year. Roses like you get from Hybrid Teas.
