FRED EDMUNDS (1943) 
This fine rosarian from Portland, Oregon, 
may well be pleased with this beautiful 
new rose which bears his name. Bril- 
liant orange buds open to a sort of burnt 
copper bloom, attracting surpriséd atten- 
tion wherever it is grown. The foliage 
is shining and clean. There is much 
enthusiastic comment from all over the 
U.S.A. in the Rose Annual. The only ad- 
verse comment is that the plant does not 
grow tall enough. It is especially beau- 
tiful when grown as a Tree Rose.

GIRONA (1939) 
Multicolored. Long buds of bright red 
and yellow, open to exquisite blooms of

ous, tall and spreading. But Girona is 
best known for its lovely fragrance, quite 
reminiscent of the old fashioned rose- 
geranium. Especially brilliant in the au-

GRANDE DUCHESS CHARLOTTE (1942) 
All American winner in 1942. Another 
striking colored rose, and we have never 
been pleased with a description of it. 
The bud has been called a chestnut 
shade, and the open bloom tomato-red, 
shaded geranium-red. That doesn’t mean 
a thing to us, but we can’t do a better one. 
At any rate it is a very beautiful rose and 
attracts constant attention in our test- 
garden. Fine strong plant. Glossy foli- 
age. Upright.

HINRICH GAEDE (1931) 
Now here is a rose with such a combina- 
tion of brilliant colors that we find it well 
nigh impossible to describe. The general 
color effect might be called orange-scarlet 
or copper-orange, or even vermilion- 
copper. Does that help you any? We 
thought not, and are sorry, but you will 
just have to see a Hinrich Gaede and 
smell its honey sweet fragrance to know 
what we mean, when we say this is the 
best of the multi-colors. A triple-centered 
bloom with 47 petals. Each.....0...0.... $1.00
