Crimson 
Glory 
California (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) We regard this 
sensational novelty as outstanding among the numerous va- 
rieties we have contributed 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 vigorous, with healthy, glossy green foliage. 
California Centennial (Plant Patent Rights Reserved) 
Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
A new, intensely fragrant, glowing crimson Rose of the most 
remarkable substance we have ever encountered in Roses. 
California Centennial is a vigorous grower with 3-foot canes 
on which thorns are so few they are negligible. The flower 
shoots break away well down on the parent canes, afford- 
ing strong stems 18 inches or more in length, which makes 
it a perfect variety for cutting. The long, spiral crimson buds 
are beautifluly formed, opening to a deep crimson-red which 
does not fade or turn blue. The texture of the petals as well 
as the color are two outstanding fine points. The flowers 
when fully open are the most brilliant crimson of any Rose 
in our test garden. Under close observation it has been noted 
that CALIFORNIA CENTENNIAL gives a wealth of beautiful 
Roses throughout the entire season.

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 a 
splendid foil to the perfectly formed buds and open bloom. 
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. 
Butterscotch (Patented) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Nothing like the color of Butterscotch has so far been seen in Roses and 
very few Roses have as beautifully shaped flowers. The length and 
grace of the flower petals of this new variety are outstanding. The out- 
side of the handsome petals is a soft, pale orange-yellow; the inside 
lemon-chrome at the base, changing to pale yellow-orange, penciled very 
lightly with orange-buff. The general color effect is a soft pastel 
capucine-buff. Visitors last year picked Butterscotch as one of the finest 
and most outstanding Roses in our fields. This variety is an origination 
of the Hill Greenhouses of Richmond, Indiana. We are sure you will 
find Butterscotch one of the choicest Roses you ever grew.

(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 florif- 
erousness and vigor of growth and large, luxurious foliage, make it a 
most satisfactory Rose in all respects. The bud is long and pointed; the
