DIAMOND JUBILEE 
PAG rs 

The loveliness and perfection of this handsome new J. & P. 
Rose will thrill you when its enormous flowers appear 
in your garden next June. You will join the experts 
who voted this top honors in the All-America Trials for 
1948. The blooms, of surpassing loveliness on a plant 
which is most attractive in itself, give you undeniable 
proof that here indeed is the “Queen of Flowers.” 
The color is warm glowing buff-orange, deeper in cooler 
weather with a radiant sparkle from a touch of orange- 
yellow at the base of each petal. Often 5 to 6 in. across, 
the many stately flowers on every plant are fully double 
and high-centered. They open slowly, providing 
many thrilling hours as you watch the buds 
gradually unfold Diamond Jubilee lasts 
exceptionally well either on the bush or as cut- 
flowers. The many heavy-textured petals do not fade 
or burn even in warm weather, but rather 
intensify in color as the flowers open. 













You will enjoy a rich soft old Rose 
fragrance as you bring this captivating 
beauty to your face. Warmth of color, 
perfection of form and rugged vigor com- 
bined with delightful scent are yours in 
greater measure from Diamond Jubilee 
than from any other Rose we know of. 
The plant is sturdy and full, well clothed 
with rich dark green foliage, and the 
constant succession of flowers is held erect 
on long green stems. 
Named Diamond Jubilee in honor of the 75th 
anniversary of Jackson & Perkins, it is a fitting 
Rose for this occasion.
