TALISMAN (1929) 
You probably have at least one Talisman 
in your garden. We would suggest that 
you plant several Talisman bushes, or 
one Climbing Talisman, so that you may 
enjoy a bow! of these lovely flowers all 
season. It is difficult to describe the col- 
ors, as they vary, probably more than 
in any other rose. An attempt might be, 
orange-scarlet and gold with some deep 
yellow, fading to soft apricot and pink. 
Exquisite buds. Long stems, upright

TEXAS CENTENNIAL (1935) 
This glorious rose is as big and fine and 
strong as President Hoover from which 
it sported. It has a much brighter color, in 
fact it is sometimes called the Red Hoov- 
er. In every other way, however, it is 
identical to the Hoover rose, than which 
there is no higher praise. There are blood- 
red tones in the fine red buds, toning to 
cerise red in the center of the flower. 
It is still a deep warm pink when it falls 
apart. Order yours early, as there never 
seem to be enough plants to supply the 
demand.
