ORANGE AND TWO-TONED SHADES 
BABE RUTH. As stated before, we have never seen 
this rose in bloom. Our quantities are limited and 
we are only listing it because some of you will be 
reading about it and want it. We can only tell you 
what the introducer has described it to be. Copper 
salmon buds that develop into large, ovoid flowers, 
color changing to rose pink as the petals fold back 
and the flower reaches its zenith. The stems are 
long, unbending, that support the flowers perfectly. 
Note: Five per cent of all moneys received from the 
distribution of this rose will be donated to the Babe 
Ruth Foundation for the fight against cancer in 
children. We think this is a nice way to have a rose 
bush and at the same time help a worthy cause. PAF. 
$2.50 each; 3 for $6.25.

(4-4% in.) of golden yellow overlaid dusty rose-pink. 
Fruity fragrance. We had considerable calls for this rose

2 {t. in height. Pat. No. 738. $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75. 
Q SUTTER’S GOLD. Top scoring hybrid tea in the 
AAIRS All-America trials. Also winner of the famous 
Bagatelle Rose Trials in Paris. Our first interna- 
tional winner. The outstanding feature of Sutter’s 
Goid is its beautiful, long-pointed yellow bud, richly 
shaded with orange and red. Because the plant is so 
strong and vigorous, it produces great quantities of 
these fine buds, each one borne on a long, straight 
stem just right for cutting. The flower has a rich 
Tea fragrance that you will find in no other yellow 
rose. We don’t believe that any other rose was so 
beautiful in the Seattle Rose Garden. We wish that 
all of you could see their bed of this variety. PAF. 
$2.50 each; 3 for $5.00.
