RED SHADES 
AMERICAN FLAGSHIP. Deep red. The 15-20 petals are 
broad with a tendency to reflex at the tips. Urn-shaped 
buds. 2-2% ft. in height. Rather spreading habit. Its 
parents are Crimson Glory on both sides so you know it 
must be good. Pat. No. 676. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75. 
CALIFORNIA CENTENNIAL. We actually think that this 
new red will take it place along with Crimson Glory and 
New Yorker as one of the best red roses. Very fragrant 
with a substance we have never seen in any other red 
rose. Very nice buds that come on long stems of 18 inches 
or more, opening to deep crimson red flowers that do not 
fade. Our only fault with the rose is that we will not have 
enough to go around. PPR. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.00. 
(@\ CHARLOTTE ARMSTRONG. Unique color with long, 
AAYRS slender blood-red buds opening to magnificent, bril- 
liantly colored open flowers of spectrum red. Long stems.

GRAND DUCHESS CHARLOTTE. The perfect buds

red, which changes as the flower opens to a lovely begonia 
rose. Some people refer to this color as tomato red. 3-4 
ft. in height. Patent pending. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.

AAYRS luminous, deep red. Full blown roses do not fade, 
but retain their color until the petals fall. Very ideal for 
cutting. About 2% ft. in height. Patent pending. $1.50 
each; 3 for $3.75. 
@) MIRANDY. Big long pointed buds open to a bloom of 
ae glowing garnet-red. It has tendency to blue and 
ball for us, but most people swear by it. About 3-3% ft. 
in height. Pat. No. 632. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75. 
NEW YORKER. Said by the introducer to be the finest red 
rose of all time and well it might be. Clear large, sparkling 
red, red flowers that do not fade in any type of weather. 
All of the blooms that we have ever seen were at least 6 
inches across, and they were beautiful. The fragrance 
makes us think of raspberries. Mr. Gallaher of the Seattle 
Test Garden states that this is the finest red rose in the 
garden and it won the Gold Medal in the Portland Test 
Garden. If you are looking for an exceptional red rose, 
we thing you can’t go wrong on this one. Pat. No. 823.

beautiful flower and bud. Must be watched for mildew.

ROSE OF FREEDOM. Our largest selling red rose of 1949. 
We believe that we made a lot of people happy by selling 
them this rose. Because of the large demand for this 
rose last year our plants were not too large, but this year 
we will have an excellent lot of bushes to offer. The color 
is a rich cardinal red. Buds open to a rather flat flower 
that is very double and has a very penetrating fragrance. 
Excellent foliage that is so clustery that you can hardly 
see the canes. Pat. No. 791. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75. 
RUBAIYAT. A gorgeous new rose producing a glorious 
AAIRS riot of deep scintillating crimson in your garden.

to a crimson-rose-red color with elusive old rose fragrance.

Patent applied for. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75.

AA\RS reds in its class. Currant red, opening to glowing 
searlet. Pointed, well formed buds on very straight stems.

your entire house. About 3 ft. in height. Patent No. 785.
