The Cream of the Crop 
SUTTER’S GOLD (Patent Applied For.) As did the yellow metal 
come to us from California in 1849, so does 
Sutter’s Gold in 1950. Buds are elongated nuggets of gold delicately made and etched with 
rich, tawny carmine. Plants are upstanding and vigorous with healthy, dark green foliage. 
This Rose has been tried and tested and found to do well in all parts of the country. It is 
truly an outstanding addition to rosedom. $2.50 each; $6.25 for 3; $25.00 for 12. 
ad N e (Plant Patent No. 792.) This is probably the most brilliant 
Zo Y = tHE bi-colored Rose ever introduced. Inside face of the petals is 
vivid Oriental red fading to cherry-red with age. The outside 
of the petals is a rich chrome-yellow, sometimes overlaid with pink, changing to straw color 
as the bloom opens. The yellow color is quite evident in the bud, while the red predominates 
when the flower is fully open. These glowing shades contrast so vividly, yet blend together 
so beautifully, that it draws constant attention and admiration. Long pointed buds open to 
unusually well shaped flowers with 25 to 40 petals. Their fragrance is mild and pleasing. 
Plants are tall and upright, branching moderately. Highly resistant to disease and tested and 
found successful everywhere that Hybrid Teas grow. $2.00 each; $5.00 for 3; $20.00 for 12.
