RAPTURE (1926)

Ophelia. The same lovely long bud, the

delightful perfume, but a little more in- 
tense coloring. Deeper pink. Each..$1.25 
RED RIPPLES (1942) 
Now here is another Floribunda that we 
should like to have you try. A clear joy- 
ous red that would make an intense color 
spot in any garden. Wavy petaled flow- 
ers come in great masses, opening a few 
at a time in the cluster, so that there seem 
to be constant bloom. Vigorous and 
healthy plants.

SHOW GIRL (1946) 
In our test-garden Show Girl has attracted 
much favorable comment. The huge ex- 
hibition blooms of deep pink, on long 
strong stems follow the long slender buds 
which often are shaded carmine. The 
petals are of heavy texture, so that the 
bloom is long lasting. The big bushy 
plant seems always to be in flower.

SIGNORA (1934) 
The finest rose of its type that we have 
ever seen. Tall, strong and robust, the 
plants stand out in our test garden, su- 
perior in growth to all the rest. Since 
April there has never been a time with- 
out bloom, and the autumn flowers are 
startling, in their vivid shades. It is a 
most intense combination of scarlet- 
orange and lighter shades of tangerine 
and cerise, and the many petaled flower 
is attractive from the bud stage until the 
open bloom drops its petals. Excellent 
for cutting. .

SLEIGH BELLS (1948) 
The originators say this is “At last a 
white rose that really grows, and blooms 
and blooms and blooms.'' We hope that 
it is as good as it seems to be, as white 
roses are a problem in this area. The 
large ovoid buds are borne singly on long 
strong stems, and open slowly to large 
40 petal blooms. The foliage is good, and 
the rose is fragrant. All of which sounds 
as though we have a better white rose, 
at last.

Our choice of all the white roses, and the 
one most easily grown, as it seems quite 
at home in any soil or climate. The buds 
are long and pointed, opening to a many 
petaled flat small to medium bloom. The 
plants are compact and bushy, making it 
unsurpassed for bedding. At the nursery
