Ning Coy - 1947 Introduction 
Beauty of detail brings forth all the fine qualities and loveli- 
ness centered in the new Polyantha-like shrub Rose, ““Ming 
Toy.’ The dainty petals are so precisely placed in Ming Toy 
that the high centered, brilliant rose-colored flowers may be 
fairly compared with a miniature Camellia in form, However, 
for all its smooth porcelain finish and dainty refinement, both 
in texture and color, Ming Toy is far from being a delicate 
Rose. The rugged plants abound with health, which accounts 
for the tremendous energy displayed in the constant produc- 
tion of flowers. This energy is manifested in the cut sprays 
as well as the plants, the flowers lasting from five to six days 
or more. Close observation of its habits and character lead 
us to believe that Ming Toy will be found paramount among 
Polyantha-like shrub Roses.

PERPETUAL FLOWERING DOORYARD ROSE 
A ROSA SETIGERA HYBRID by HORVATH 
THE ROSE THAT NEVER FAILS! 
Color of Flower: Peach-blossom-pink with silvery reflexed, sharply recurving 
imbricated petals, center showing a lovely orange undertone. Flowers in panicles. 
Persistent grower and bloomer. Flowering period starting in June, lasting until 
frost; starts blooming about two weeks later than Hybrid Tea Roses, but is 
never without flowers the entire summer and fall. Flowers excellent for cutting 
and decorative work, are fully double, having from 50 to 60 petals, and are 
delightfully fragrant, lasting a week to ten days in water when cut. 
Foliage: Bottle-green, rich and clean. Not troubled with black spot, mildew 
or other Rose maladies. 
Hardiness: Hardy without protection in the Temperate Zone. Can be suc- 
cessfully grown with little protection in the colder regions where growing Roses 
heretofore has not been possible or exceedingly difficult. 
Use and Size of Plant: Ultimate height about 2 feet, spreading from 5 to 6 
feet or more if permitted. It is a decumbent, spreading, matlike plant, making 
it pre-eminently fit for ground covering,- hiding rocky and ugly spots, or as 
edging to Rose beds as well as planting in solid beds or covering slopes. Single 
specimens are very effective in the flower border or low shrub plantings.

Che CNew Cluster Rose, — “Glorious” 

The extremely vigorous bushes 
of ‘’Glorious’’ are well branched, 
producing strong canes that di- 
vide into many open sprays, bear- 
ing informal clusters of deep ver- 
milion buds, expanding into semi- 
double flowers of Tyrian rose. It 
can be truthfully said, the flowers 
cover the plants. Taking the lib- 
erty to choose from the entire Rose 
family, it would be impossible to 
surpass the new Rose ‘’Glorious”’ 
for the purpose of bordering 
drives or walks, for mass planting 
Or grouping, in fact, for any sit- 
uation where a wealth of color is 
desired. Its name was given by 
the many visitors to the nursery. 
From all who beheld this fine new 
Rose in bloom, came the excla- 
mation: “It is glorious!’’—and 
so the Rose was named.
