PATENTED ROSES — the Cream of the Crop 
One of the thrills of modern gardening is to grow some of the newer varieties of roses. It is 
hard to realize the strides made in rose culture toward richer colors, more vigorous plants, 
until you have tried them. All rose lovers owe a debt of gratitude to these pioneers who are 
ever pushing the rose on to new heights. 
We have always considered the newer varieties the “dessert” of rose growing. The older va- 
rieties, we consider the “entree.” We all know exactly what a Talisman or Hoover will do in our 
garden, but a great thrill it is to watch a new rose come into bloom. Add at least one or two of 
these newer roses to your garden this year. Remember they are all No. 1 plants of the finest quality.
