MARK SULLIVAN 
Now, here is a Rose! We are agreed in 
our decision that this is the best multi- 
color, both in appearance and perform- 
ance, of any of the new roses. Both at 
the Nursery in Oakland and in the San 
Joaquin Valley we have found Mark Sulli- 
van to be the first to bloom, and is literally 
covered with gorgeous flowers all rang- 
ing in shades of deep yellow, rose-pink 
and cerise. There are deep veins on the 
petals, so that the full open bloom is 
quite as striking as the bud. There is 
seldom a time during the season that you 
cannot cut a bouquet of the lovely frag- 
rant flowers. Glossy foliage. Sturdy, 
vigorous plant.

MARY MARGARET McBRIDE (1941) 
This attractive rose of coral pink and 
gold tints bids fair to become as popular 
as the gracious lady for whom it was 
named. Large double, high-centered 
blooms. Long strong stems. Received the 
All America award for 1943. We have 
not found the plant to be a heavy bloom- 
er, but the individual flowers are usually 
perfect in form.

McGREDY’S IVORY (1930) 
Still called the “best white rose’. White 
roses are a problem in Bay district gar- 
dens, but this Ivory beauty is worth a 
little extra care and attention, because 
it really can produce exquisite long slim 
buds, and many shapely open blooms.

McGREDY’S YELLOW (1933) 
Large soft yellow blooms, of perfect form 
and sweetly scented. The pure lemon 
tone without a trace of other color is 
especially attractive right through the sea- 
son. Glossy clean foliage. Deep reddish- 
green stems. Fine for cutting. Each..$1.00 
MME. CHIANG KAI SHEK (1944) 
All America winner for 1944. One of 
the finest of the pale yellow roses. Long 
strong stems. Bushes are very tall and 
slender. The flowers have a delicate 
lemon scent. When well grown the bud 
and flower are of unusual size and per- 
fect form. Fades to lemon white in open 
bloom.

MME. HENRI GUILLOT (1938) 
We are surprised that it has been ten 
years since we first met this lovely “new” 
rose. It is so different in texture, form and 
coloring that it still seems to be ‘‘new”. 
Large urn-shaped buds open to truly ca- 
mellia-like blooms, of glowing tones of 
reddish-orange, rose and pink. Clean 
glossy foliage, quite resistant to mildew. 
Whether at the Bay or in the hot valley 
we have found this to be one of the best 
of all roses that we know.

MRS. E. P. THOM (1926) 
Usually called the "yellowest yellow 
rose’. Nicely shaped buds, with well 
formed open blooms. Unfading. Whether 
in bush or climbing form, Mrs. Thom is 
a very satisfactory rose to grow.

MRS. PIERRE S. DU PONT (1929) 
For hot climates we unhesitatingly recom- 
mend this yellow rose to give you more 
blooms per plant than any rose in your 
garden. In the Bay area it is good, too, 
but seems especially suited to warmer 
areas. It stands like a huge golden bou- 
quet in your garden. Very dense rich 
foliage. Flowers are not large, but each 
one is perfectly formed. Each.......... $1.25 
MRS. SAM McGREDY (1929) 
This is truly a “must have’ in every rose 
garden. For years it has been at the top 
of the list of roses of its type. Long 
pointed buds of scarlet-orange, washed 
with copper and red. The open bloom is 
rich apricot, shaded with bronze. Very 
double. Long stems with few thorns. 
Reddish bronze foliage in the spring 
attracts much favorable attention. Low 
grower, of spreading habit, and flowers 
possess a sweet fragrance. Each......$1.25 
NEW YORKER (1947) 
A new velvety-scarlet that promises to be 
a fine addition to the few good red roses. 
It is a large open bloom, quite double, 
with a pleasant fruity fragtance. The 
plant is vigorous and bushy in growth. 
An abundance of bloom, which seemed 
quite unfading in the hot summer days.
