Lulu. Dainty streamlined buds of cheerful coral apricot 
that are perfect gems for cutting. The open salmon pink 
flowers while only semi-double are of perfect form and char- 
acter. Vigorous bush and extremely floriferous. It has been 
one of the most popular roses for over 20 years. Each, $1.00. 
Mark Sullivan. The plant seems to be filled with the joy 
of living and growing and expresses that joy in the amazing 
freshness of its mirror-like foliage, its long firm stems and 
in the symmetry of its big (about 50 petals) glowing, high- 
centered bloom. Each substantial petal is a work of art, 
golden yellow overlaid and heavily veined with cerise and 
rose. Grows tall, shapely and develops a constant succession 
of buds and bloom, the kind you like to cut. Pat. 599. Each, 
$1.50. 
Mary Hart. Being a sport of the popular Talisman this 
rose, at least during the cooler parts of the year, may be 
depended upon to supply a surfeit of trim shapely buds and 
bloom, identical to Talisman as to form, character, quantity 
and quality. Habits of growth and general appearance of the 
bush are the same. As with many red roses, flowers will 
burn during hot spells. A little afternoon shade will help.

McGredy’s Ivory. We would include this variety among 
the top three white roses. It possesses fragrance, substantial 
pointed buds, high-centered ivory white bloom on good cut- 
ting stems. Plenty of leathery foliage and excellent growing 
habits. Each, $1.00. 
McGredy’s Yellow. If you appreciate soft buttercup yel- 
low roses we know you'll enjoy this one. No other rose of 
our acquaintance equals it in substance (45 to 50 big, shapelv 
petals), solid buds are long and shapely, stems are perfect, 
leaves large and the bush really grows. Each, $1.00. 
Mirandy. All those who live in warm, dry areas have 
been overly enthusiastic over this variety. Garnet red 
bloom with black shading, exquisitely formed and heavily 
double are borne continuously on a sturdy and _ heavily 
branching bush. Here in Altadena, particularly during the 
hot summer days, we have enjoyed its lasting qualities and 
deep heavy perfume. During damp foggy weather the flow- 
ers do not open properly. Pat. 632. Each, $1.50. 
Miss Rowena Thom. Here is a rose that does everything 
in a generous way. The pink round-petaled roses are enor- 
mous, full and high centered. And the plant grows prodi- 
gously fast, sending up strong stems that are often two or 
three feet in length. Few thorns. Each, $1.00. 
reg Mme. Chiang Kai-shek. Since its introduction we 
have heard but one adverse criticism of this rose, that 
being the paleness of its yellow bloom. Especially during 
warm weather the color of both buds and bloom fades almost 
to white. In spite of this we believe the variety deserves a 
place in your gardens for each long, tight bud and spiral 
shaped bloom, borne on strong stems is a picture of grace 
and loveliness. And the bush seems to get a real thrill out of 
just growing. Lemon fragrance. Patent 664. Each, $1.50. 
Mme. Henri Guillot. A lively, lovable shade of warm rasp- 
berry pink in both bud and open flower. Attractive at every 
stage, the bloom becomes more lovely as it unfolds display- 
ing the rich even coloring of its big luxuriant petals (and 
there are about 25 of them). Dressed in clothing of glisten- 
ing green the tall spreading bush grows thriftily. The cut 
flowers have won many firsts in California Rose Shows.

We want to ask you again to read the information begin- 
ning on page 47 on When, Where and What to Plant. If 
you are not thoroughly familiar with care of plants you'll 
find the information of great value to you. Even if you are 
well versed in such matters, we still think you should read it. 

Mme. Jules Bouche. Although this rose made its debut 
back in 1911 it is still considered by many the finest white 
rose. Except for a faint blush in the center of the open bloom 
the flowers are porcelain white. Provides big, double, con- 
tinuous bloom. Grows vigorously. Each, $1.25. 
Mrs, E. P. Thom. Introduced in 1926, and a Southern 
California product, too, by the way, this variety is still among 
the top half dozen yellow roses in popularity. Tight buds, 
symmetrical of outline, clear canary yellow without shading 
and full high centered open flowers that lighten in color as 
they age. The stems are all that could be desired in sturdi- 
ness and are lined with dark disease resistant foliage. Strong 
growth. Plant a few and enjoy the happy consequences. 
Each, $1.00. 
Mrs. Pierre S. du Pont. Long, reddish gold buds. Fragrant 
semi-double golden yellow flowers. Probably the heaviest 
bloomer of the yellow roses. Each, $1.25. 
Mrs. Sam McGredy. A rose that changes color with the 
seasons but is lovely at all times. Extravagant buds of cop- 
pery orange unfold to form full perfect flowers of brilliant 
orange. During hot weather the flowers change to lively 
pink shades. Mild fragrance. Moderate growth. Each $1.25. 
Night. Of the so-called “black” roses we consider this 
variety far superior to any other. In both bud and flower 
the coloring is deep crimson brushed with black and maroon. 
During cooler weather the tight dusky buds are perfection, 
the half open blooms, on good stems, display an artistic ar- 
rangement of round shapely petals. Startling spicy fragrance. 
Good growing habits. Flowers will burn during hot spells, 
but you can’t have everything in one rose. Each, $1.00. 
MARS. Nocturne, A new bright cardinal red rose having the 
longest, most perfect of streamlined buds. The bloom 
is interestingly marked with deeper shading of crimson; in 
hot weather the color is somewhat lighter. The fragrance is 
pleasant, though not strong. Plenty of large, richly textured 
petals of good substance. The plant is vigorous and grows 
quickly into a good sized sturdy bush with large, abundant, 
semi-glossy foliage. Pat. 713. Each, $2.00. 
weed Peace. Through every stage of development from bud 
“~% to fully opened bloom this surprising rose is a perfect 
example of correct behavior. In the tight deep yellow bud 
each petal is outlined with cerise. As the many petaled bloom 
unfurls deep changes to soft yellow, and even to frosty white, 
but the pink shading of the petal tips remains in varying 
intensity throughout the life of the flower. The flower is 
enormous, 4 to 5 inches in diameter, and the artistic arrange- 
ment of the heavy petals beats anything we have ever seen 
in a rose. Vigorous disease resistant bush, strong stems, 
bright foliage. Lasting bloom. Pat. 591. Each, $2.00. 
Picture. You'll fall in love with this little sweetheart at 
first sight. The trim sturdy buds open to cheerful pink 
flowers of medium size. Double, high centered, mild tea fra- 
grance. Good foliage. Each, $1.00. 
Pres. Herbert Hoover. Through all seasons this marvelous 
rose perfects its tight orange scarlet buds and pink flowers in 
astonishing quantities. Strong stems for cutting. Prodigious 
upright grower. Each, $1.00. 
Radiance. A rose that has given satisfaction for over 30 
years. Ovoid buds, full cup-shaped flowers, rosy pink with- 
out and soft pink within. Good stems. Vigorous and long 
lived. Each, $1.00. 
Red Radiance. A cerise red sport of the foregoing that 
boasts the same excellent characteristics. Each, $1.00. 
Rose Marie. For many years this variety outsold all other 
pink roses. While some newer pink roses have stronger 
stems, where will you find a rose to equal it in long taper- 
ing rose pink buds, honey sweet fragrance and quantity of 
bloom? Each, $1.00.
