S} he Ginest of the New Roses 
“Babe Ruth” (Patent Applied For) Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
It’s a big hit. This fine new Rose performs like the American sports 
hero for whom it was named. Through the entire Rose season, this Rose 
never lets you down; it can be depended upon for a top performance. 
The plants are strong and vigorous. The leathery foliage is green, clean 
and flawless. The buds tell you beforehand that when the flowers open 
something is going to happen, and it does. The heavy petaled, copper- 
salmon buds develop into large, ovoid flowers, the color changing to 
rose-pink as the petals fold back and the flower reaches its zenith. The 
stems are long, unbending and support the flowers in perfect balance. 
Score your bushes for flowers. You will find at the end of the season 
that the new variety ‘‘Babe Ruth’ is always well up among the top 
flight producers in the league of Roses. 
Note: Five per cent of all moneys received from the distribution of this 
Rose by the originator will be donated to the Babe Ruth Foundation, de- 
voted to the ‘’Kids of America’’, and for the fight against cancer among 
children, which the Foundation is promoting. 
Capistrano (Patent Applied For) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) Capistrano in bud as well 
as when fully open is noted for its beautiful translucent, glowing rose- 
pink color. It retains this sparkling brilliance throughout the entire 
life of the flower, never fading or changing. It is one of the most vig- 
. orous Roses ever introduced. Large buds, large flowers and extra long 
stems; delightfully fragrant. Here is a Rose with a great future. 
Fashion (Plant Patent No. 789) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) An exquisitely beautiful 
Floribunda. The color is luminous coral-pink overlaid with gold which 
softens to clear coral and then deepens into deeper tinted tones at the 
finishing stage. Pointed buds are Oriental red and siowly open into a 
lovely miniature-like Hybrid Tea form. The open flowers are about 31/4 
inches across and have a delightful old rose fragrance. Grows about 214 
to 3 feet tall; good foliage and prolific blooming. At the National Rose 
Society’s Show in London it received the Gold Medal and was the sen- 
sation of the Show. No wonder it won the All-America Award for 1949. 


“Tom Breneman” (Patent Applied For) Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
The glorious new Rose “Tom Breneman” was originated by the late 
Fred Howard, America’s leading rosarian. The happiness, laughter and 
gayety that Tom Breneman brought to the world over the radio could not 
be better exemplified thon in the new Rose that bears his name. From 
the time the bud unfurls until the last petals fall, you will find nothing 
flat or dull in this variety. Every bud and flower is full of vigor, happi- 
ness and color. The rugged plants give unstintingly throughout the en- 
tire season. Other fine Roses have qualities that delight the eye, in the 
sense of form and color, but in addition to these lovely attributes, the 
new Rose “Tom Breneman’”’ has a quality of sweetness that surpasses 
all Roses in its field of color. The long coral-rose buds expand slowly in- 
to beautiful, long lasting flowers. During the height of the season, 
when the bushes are covered with their coral-rose buds and flowers, 
that priceless ingredient, fragrance, is so intense that those standing 
close to the plant, inhaling the delicious fragrance, always remark— 
“Tom Breneman is the Rose we have been waiting for.’’ 
Mission Bells (Patent Applied For) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) Mission Bells is a deep, 
glowing salmon opening to a brilliant clear shrimp-pink. The flowers are 
full centered and when fully open measure as much as 51/4 inches 
across. It is unusually vigorous and free branching, producing flowers 
in abundance. This variety will do well for all Rose growers and surely 
deserves the award it was given. 
Sutter’s Gold (Patent Applied For) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) The most outstanding 
feature of Sutter’s Gold is its beautiful, long pointed, yellow bud, richly 
shaded with coppery red. When fully open it is a superb yellow Rose with 
coppery veins through its flower petals. It is an unusually strong grower, 
free branching and exceedingly free blooming for a yellow Rose. The 
fragrance is excellent, foliage very good; all in all a fine addition to the 
selection of yellow Roses. It also won the Foreign Gold Medal in Paris in 
June 1948 An international Winner.

colors is to be noted in this glorious new Rose. Orange and apricot at 
the base of the petals, merging to salmony rose and Phlox-pink in the 
fully developed bloom is descriptive. The bud is long-pointed. The fully 
developed flower shows a regular, well-placed petal arrangement. A 
good strong grower, with handsome, leathery foliage which serves as a 
splendid foil to the perfectly formed buds and open bloom. 
Blanche Mallerin (Plant Patent No. 594) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00

petals of the beautifully modeled blooms are as white as alabaster, with 
a live, satiny sheen. 
Butterscotch (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Nothing like the color of Butterscotch has so far been seen in Roses and 
very few Roses have as beautifully shaped flowers. The length and 
grace of the flower petals of this new variety are outstanding. The out- 
side of the handsome petals is a soft, pale orange-yellow; the inside 
lemon-chrome at the base, changing to pale yellow-orange, penciled very 
lightly with orange-buff. The general color effect is a soft pastel 
capucine-buff. Visitors last year picked Butterscotch as one of the finest

substance we have ever encountered in Roses. California Centennial is a 
vigorous grower with 3-foot cares on which thorns are so few:they are 
negligible. The flower shoots break away well down on the parent canes 
affording strong stems 18 inches or more in length, which makes it a 
perfect variety for cutting. The long, spiral crimson buds are beautifully 
formed, opening to a deep cromson-red which does not fade or turn blue 
The texture of the petals as well as the color are two outstanding fine 
points. The flowers when fully open are the most brilliant crimson of ar 
Rose in our test garden. Under close observation it has been
