cupped bloom. The foliage is dark and 
leathery, which is unusual in the deeper

OPHELIA (1912) 
As far back as we can remember roses, 
Ophelia has been known as the best of 
its type. Soft shell-pink, shading in hot 
sunshine to creamy white. Perfectly 
formed. Sweetly perfumed. No other 
rose can quite take the place of Ophelia.

PEACE (1945) 
An amazingly beautiful rose, but seldom 
photogenic. You have never seen a pic- 
ture of Peace that does it justice. A fine 
long golden yellow bud opens to a pale 
yellow many petalled bloom with faint 
pink picotee edges. Gradually, day by 
day, this bloom opens to a huge alabaster 
white, which turns to a pure soft pink 
before it drops. The ‘'Proof of the Pud- 
ding’ in the American Rose Annual de- 
votes three and a half pages to this 
glorious rose, with enthusiastic apprecia- 
tion from all over the United States and 
British Columbia. The only disappointed 
comment is from one man, who wishes 
it were a red rose! It develops a perfect 
plant, tall, spreading, shining foliage, and 
quite resistant to pests and disease. The 
plants in our test garden are a continuous 
joy.

PICTURE (1932) 
The most perfectly formed of the medium- 
sized blooms. The color is a warm shade 
of pink, with a faint undertone of salmon, 
the general effect being cheerful and 
glowing. A sweet tea fragrance. Well- 
balanced growth with one continuous 
burst of bloom after another, all through 
the season. There are several Picture 
Tree Roses in our test garden and they 
attract much favorable comment.

PINK ROSETTE 
A delightful tiny rose, many petalled, 
clear soft pink, flowering in clusters. A 
beautiful plant for bedding, but is espe- 
cially desired by the flower arrangers, 
as it will last for days when cut. It pro- 
duces a constant succession of blooms on 
vigorous plants. Deep green foliage.

with deeper flutings. Will last for days in

24 inches high, bushy and makes a per- 
fect hedge or base planting.

PRESIDENT HERBERT HOOVER (1930) 
It is a little hard to imagine a rose planting 
without at least one Hoover rose.. How- 
ever, the plant does grow so large, and 
the stems are so long on each flower that 
we suggest that you plant it with that in 
mind. Huge buds of flaming scarlet and 
yellow, open to soft creamy pink with 
golden shadings. Sparse and sometimes 
unattractive foliage is Hoover's only fault. 
Free flowering. Each..0....4.. ee $1.00

fragrance. Each: 0... $1.25 
RAMON BACH (1937) 
A truly wonderful rose! A new type of 
petalage gives this rose distinction, and 
it has attracted continuous attention in our 
test garden. Apricot-buff on reverse of 
petals and a touch of salmon-pink on the 
inside, which combine in a soft amber 
yellow, with a luminous glow. The open 
bloom has a fluted effect much like a 
cactus dahlia. Excellent for cutting.
