Price: $2.00 each, $20.00 per dozen, except where noted. 

Mission Bells 
Applause—Another descendent of that famous variety Charlotte 
Armstrong. Large fragrant buds are a sparkling dazzling light red 
in color. The perfectly shaped 50-petaled open blooms are heavy 
with fragrance. A very prolific bloomer. The first Rose to win the 
much-prized Gold Medal at the famous Bagatelle Gardens in Paris 
in the first post-war contest. 
Capistrano (Patent Applied For/—ls a rich shade of deep glowing 
rose pink, in the bud as well as in the open flower. It retains its 
brilliant color throughout the life of the flower without fading. One 
of the most vigorous growing Roses ever introduced, it produces 
large buds and flowers, on extra long, strong, heavy stems. Foliage 
is large and leathery. Growth is upright. Blooms have a rich, heavy, 
lasting fragrance. Price: $2.50 per plant, $25.00 per dozen. 
Colleen Moore (Patent 583)—This Rose was selected by Colleen 
Moore, the charming Hollywood personality, from a large number 
of seedlings to bear her name. It is a beautiful velvety carmine 
overlaid oxblood red and intensely fragrant. Price: $1.50 each, 
$15.00 per dozen. 
Copper Lustre (Potent 641)—Our exclusive introduction. Blooming 
habit free and perpetual and the large dark green leaves are most 
distinctive with veins and edging of deep red. Stem, strong and 
upright, oil green color with large red thorns. Extremely disease 
resistant. Buds are long and pointed. Color coppery between gera- 
nium pink and peach red with aigret of apricot yellow. Blooms 
large measuring 5 inches in diameter. On first opening outer surface 
petals vary between peach and jasper red, blending into a yellow 
base. When fully open much more delicate in color. 
Debonair (Patent 677)—Perfect yellow buds against one of the most 
handsomely foliaged of Roses in the hardy garden type. The high cen- 
tered opening flowers of substantial primrose yellow are very grace- 
ful and has a delightful old-fashioned fragrance. 
Twenty 
Diamond Jubilee (A.A.R.S.)—Color-glowing buff orange and when 
fully opened the flowers are easily 6 inches across. A variety that 
lasts very well either on a bush or as a cut flower. A nice old Rose 
fragrance is not the least of its many charming qualities. Foliage 
is a dark green and the constant succession of flowers are produced 
on long heavy stems. 
Forty-Niner (Patent 792)—Probably the most brilliant bi-colored Rose 
ever introduced. Outside of petals rich chrome yellow, sometimes 
overlaid pink, changing to straw yellow in the open bloom. This 
yellow color is most evident in the bud. Inside face of the petals 
vivid Orient red, changing to cherry red with age. These glowing 
colors contrast vividly yet blend together beautifully. Buds long- 
pointed and delightfully formed, opening into unusually well-shaped 
flowers with 25 to 40 or more petals, with a pleasant fragrance. 
Mediator—tThis is our exclusive introduction. The color is a delightful 
coral-pink shading to salmon-pink at the base of the petals. The 
reddish-green foliage is in charming contrast to the medium sized 
flowers containing about 45 petals; a most orderly plant of good 
clean growing habit. 
Mirandy (Patent 632)—The All America Rose selection of 1945 that 
has earned all the praise that has been given it throughout the 
country. Deep rich red buds of unusually brilliant color, the plant is 
very vigorous growing and free flowering with very lasting fragrance. 
Mission Bells (Patent Applied For/—ls a deep glowing salmon, which 
opens to a clear shrimp pink color. Vigorous, heavily branched plants 
are abundantly clothed with disease resisting coppery green foliage. 
The buds are pointed and open to high centered flowers which 
often measure 5Y% inches across. Due to its free branching habit, 
Mission Bells produces large quantities of blooms throughout the 
season. Blooms have a pleasing tea fragrance. All America Award 
winner for 1950, and the top scoring hybrid tea. Truly a Rose 
grower's Rose. Price: $2.50 each, $25.00 per dozen. 
Mrs. Paul Bosley (Patent 441)—One of the most exciting of the re- 
cent introductions in yellow Roses. The yellow form of the Mme. 
Joseph Perraud, one of the outstanding garden Roses for the past 
several years and this yellow form will prove more popular than 
the original Mme. Perraud, judging from the reports and repeat or- 
ders we receive from the customers who have purchased it in the 
past. Long pointed buds on fine strong stems with a delightful fra- 
grance are a decided asset in any garden. Price: $1.50 each, 
$15.00 per dozen. 
New Yorker (Patent 823)—The best red Rose of all times. This is 
truly a red, red Rose that does not change color until the last petals 
wither and fall. The clear sparkling flowers are tremendous in size; 
the foliage is disease resistant, and the habit of growth is sturdy 
and upright, attaining a height of about 3 ft. Extremely prolific in 
growth and flowers. 
Nocturne (Patent 713)—A brilliant cardinal red Rose with darker col- 
orings through the petals. The unusually large buds of this particular 
variety are very heavy in texture and have an exquisite fragrance. 
This variety is produced on long sturdy stems and when more gen- 
erally distributed will be one of our popular red Roses. 
Peace—The opening color is a bright Primrose yellow with the edges 
of the petals tinged cerise. As the flower advances from the bud state 
to the fully opened flower the yellow becomes lemon shade while the 
pink intensifies to a watermelon shade. This Rose has a delightful fra- 
grance and on account of its exceptional petalage is very long lasting 
as a cut flower. It is about; the strongest growing plant that has ever 
been introduced in an*outdoor Rose attaining a height of 4 feet or 
more with flowers: produced on long, strong stems on which the dark 
green, leathery, disease resistant foliage is just another added attrac- 
tion. If you can have only one new Rose in your garden this year, be 
sure this is the variety you select.
