plants are well over 31% ft. high, covered generously with beautiful foliage 
and plenty of young new growth the glistening bronze color of red barberry. 
Even late in September, there will be many flowers and because of the cool 
weather, their color and form are lovely beyond description. Plant Char- 
lotte Armstrong in your own garden with confidence that it will give you 
a profuse display of very beautiful rich red blooms from early spring right 
through July, August, and September to frost.

EASY IME. MARIE CURIE (Left)

EXSY = PEACE (Below) 
All-America Rose for 1946 
(Plant Patent No. 591) 
Another great new Rose which has become increasingly popular. 
The ovoid buds are golden yellow, etched with pink. As they 
open, they change from canary-yellow to pale gold to iridescent 
cream. The petals are edged with apple-blossom-pink that deepens 
as the flower slowly opens to glorious 5-in. blooms. 
As the flower matures, the petals roll gracefully outward to form 
a very double bloom, attractively cupped and with a high-centered 
golden heart. Individual petals are large, numbering from 40 to 
45. The bloom is firm-textured and never balls in any weather. 
Its fragrance is delicate. 
The plant is hardy . . . vigorous . . . disease-resistant. Flowers 
are unusually large, on heavy stems that lift them proudly above 
the foliage. Needs no disbudding. 
$2.00 each; 3 for $5.00; 12 for $20.00
