Here we list only the very choicest and most popular varieties of Tea 
Roses, with the majority of which every lover of the Rose is familiar. 
Duplicates as well as inferior varieties have been discontinued. All are 
good growers and free flowering and will provide you with an ample 
Anzac (Patent) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Has all the qualifications of a winner: vigor, ruggedness and depend- 
ability. Anzac, like the Douglas MacArthur, needs no coddling. Give 
Anzac the ordinary requisites that Roses require and you will be more 
than gratified with the successful results. The vigorous growth of Anzac 
foretells the advent of many shapely buds and beautiful flowers. Buds 
of coral washed with gold unfold into perfectly formed Camellia-like 
flowers. As these flowers expand, the original colors lighten, the golden 
flush at the base of the petals passes to yellow and the coral changes 
to rosy lake. 
Apricot Queen (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) A lovely combination of 
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 3 
splendid foil to the perfectly formed buds and open bloom. 
Butterscotch. (See page $8.) 
Blanche Mallerin (Plant Patent No. 594) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
This is that rare beauty, a pure white, fragrant Hybrid Tea Rose. The 
petals of the beautifully modeled blooms are as white as alabaster, with 
a live, satiny sheen. 
California (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) We regard this sensational 
novelty as outstanding among the numerous varieties we have con- 
tributed to the Rose world through our efforts in plant breeding. The 
color is a glorious ruddy orange toned with saffron-yellow, with the 
exterior of the broad petals overlaid with saturn-rose—a dual tone effect 
of indescribable richness and beauty. Buds long and pointed; flowers of 
enormous size, reaching a diameter of five to six inches. Growth vigor- 
ous, with healthy, glossy green foliage.

green foliage. 

Mirandy 







Charlotte Armstrong (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) A Rose of a most unusual 
color, blood-red in the bud, opening to cerise in hot weather and to 
spectrum-red in cool weather, while the beautiful shape and extreme 
length of the bud, with its long, clasping sepals and the extreme flori- 
ferousness and vigor of growth and large, luxurious foliage, make it a 
most satisfactory Rose in all respects. The bud is long and pointed; the 
flower is 3 or 4 inches in diameter, high-centered, never showing the 
center. The foliage is leathery, semi-glossy, deep green and highly 
resistant to mildew. 
Commando Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
The lovely flower is a marvel of delicacy. Huge flowers of the 
most delicate salmon-pink with brilliant yellow toward the 
base of the petals, lighting up the effect with incondescence. 
A fine new variety worthy of a place in every garden. 
Contrast Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
The combination of colors to be noted in this exauisite 
bi-colored Rose catches the eye at once; the reverse of the 
petals is milk-white with basal bronze shading, the upper 
face a superb shade of orange-rose. Flowers full petaled, 
fairly fragrant, produced in enormous quantity over the 
full Rose season, grand for cutting purposes. This novelty 
has elicited over the past two years numerous encomiums 
from all parts of the U. S. A., England, and even far oft 
Australia. 


Countess Vandal Each $1.50, Doz. $15.0c 
(Plant Patent No 38.) Long, pointed, orange-copper buds. 
The flowers are large, double, high-centered, and have a 
rich fragrance. Their color is brilliant pink lightened with 
salmon. The blooms are borne on long stems. 
Crimson Glory Each $1.50. Doz. $15.00 
(Plant Patent No. 150.) The plants branch freely, producing 
a well spread, yet compact bush of good symmetry. Following 
the large, urn-shaped buds are the well formed flowers of an 
intense deep vivid crimson shaded oxblood-red and mellowed 
by a soft velvety nap. 
Crown of Gold Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
Golden yellow flowers of very fine form, lasting exceptionally 
well under trying hot conditions. One of the best of the older 
yellows. Good grower and free blooming. 
Douglas MacArthur (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
“The Commander's Rose.’ This vigorous American Rose re- 
quires 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-shaped buds open slowly into glorious flowers 
of fine proportions. To specify the color of this Rose in 
definite terms taken from color charts is impossible. Rose, 
gold and salmon are all exquisitely blended into a flower of 
regal beauty.
