“The Commander's Rose.’’ This vigorous American Rose requires 
no coddling, asks no favors. It has grown well and proven its 
value and worth in all sections of our country. The strong bushes 
send up numerous shoots which are loaded with an unbelievable 
number of buds. As a flag unfurls, the long, graceful, Tulip- 
shcped buds open slowly into glorious flowers of fine proportions. 
To specify the color of this Rose in definite terms taken from 
color cherts is impossible. Rose, gold and salmon are all ex- 
quisitely blenced into a flower of regal beauty. 
Duquesa de Penaranda Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
This glorious Rose produces two distinct types of flowers. During 
the summer the pointed buds are a blend of apricot-orange and 
dark pink, opening to splendid blooms of coppery apricot. In the 
autumn great brownish buds open slowly to finely formed flowers 
of a luscious cinnamon-peach color, truly enchanting to visitors 
to our gardens who delight in the new art shades. It is sweetly 
perfumed and one of the loveliest Roses for cutting. 
Eclipse (Plant Patent No. 172) Each $1.50, Doz. $15 00 
Golden yellow. An entirely new type, with ‘‘stream-lined’’ buds 
which often exceed 2 inches in length, ornamental with narrow, 
branching sepals which contrast Farmoniously with the gold of 
the petals. You can depend on “‘Eclipse’’ for almost continuous 
bloom on strong, upright plants with healthy, dark green foliage. 
The flower- 
are preduced on long, erect stems, suitable for | 
cutting. | 
Edel Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

free flowering. 
Grand Duchess Charlette (Patented) 
(Award All-America Rose Selection, 1942.) This Rose aristocrat provides a 
color unknown in any other Rose. The beautiful, long, streamlined buds are 
glowing morocco-red and open to 25 firm-petaled blooms of dusky coral-red 
which do not fade, and gradually merge to a soft coral-pink. When unfolding, 
the petals recurve and make a delightfully informal, artistic flower with a-hint 
of Carnation fragrance. 
Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Heart’s Desire Each $1.50, Doz $15.00 
(Plant Patent No. 501) 
First place winner of the All-America Rose 
Competition for 1941. A strong grower, 
owing to its parentage which is the well 
known never failing Radiance. Buds are 
ovoid, sometimes long and pointed, 
ceep red with dark crimson shading. Foli- 
age is rich green and growing habit is 
luxuriant. Flowers freely preduced through- 
out the entire season are delightfully fra- 
grant. One of the best red Roses.

Hill Top. (See page 84.) 
Sen Fernando Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
(Plant Patent App'ied For) 
The introduction of this grand Rose is an 
important milestone in the production of 
better red Roses. Competent judges who 
have seen the elegant red Rose in bloom, 
rank it high among the best of its color. 
The bright vermilion buds are long and 
pointed, opening into fully double flowers 
of vermilion-scarlet. In addition to the 
elegant form and brilliant color, SAN FER- 
NANDO has another outstanding quality— 
intense and lasting fragrance. The vigorous 
oy growth, fine foliage, brilliant color and 
4 pointed form are sufficient qualities to 
4 recommend any Rose, but when you add 
4 the spicy old rose fragrance to these qual- 
i ities, it can be truthfully said that San 
Fernando, the new red Rose, will be among 
the leading varieties for a long time to 
come.
