ARS Winner 
AARS MEANS i-america Rose Selections. This is a non-profit committee, nationally and interna- 
tionally recognized as the most important rose testing organization. Each year, AARS scientifically tests and 
selects the best of each year’s rose introductions for national awards. All rose entries are planted in 18 test 
gardens distributed throughout America. Competent judges score the entries over a period of two years, and 
at the end of the two year period, the top scoring entry is given the All-America Award. You can be certain 
that any AARS winner is one of AMERICA’S FINEST ROSES. 
CHARLOTTE ARMSTRONG—See Front Cover. NEW YORKER— (Patent No. 823). Here is the red, 
DIAMOND JUBILEE—(Patent No. 824). Winner of 
the top seore in the All-American Trials for 1948. 
Fully double, high centered flowers of a glowing 
buff-orange with a touch of orange-yellow at the 
base of the petals. Often 5 to 6 inches across. De- 
hghtful fragrance. Each, $2.00; 3 for $5.00. 
FORTY-NINER— (Patent No. 792). Brilliantly hued 
bi-color that justly secured an AARS AWARD FOR 
1949. Its contrasting colors are startling in their 
brilliance, yet they blend together beautifully. In- 
side of petals is a vivid Orient red, while the outside 
is a chrome-yellow. Colors are lasting and bright. 
The long buds open to well shaped blooms of 25 to 
red Rose you’ve been waiting for! Dark, clear and 
sparkling in color, the delightfully fragrant flowers 
are enormous... often measuring more than 6 inches 
across. The color is long-lasting and very sun-resist- 
ant, an important quality because as a rule red Roses 
take on a bluish cast in hot weather. New Yorker is 
a welcome exception because it remains clear and 
sparkling throughout a long season. The perfectly 
formed, high-centered blooms are scarlet with rose- 
red undertones and each petal is overlaid with a rich 
sheen of velvet. These plants bloom heavily in June 
on luxurious, vigorous, 3-ft. plants with a breath- 
taking succession of flowers from then until cold 
weather. Each, $2.00; 3 for $5.00. 
40 petals, mildly fragrant. Each, $1.75; 3 for $4.40. PRACE—(Patent No. 591). AARS AWARD FOR 
MIRANDY—(Patent No.-632). (See picture on page 
30.) The first-place All-America award winner for 
1945. This beautiful creation is a gorgeous rose, pro- 
ducing big, ovoid, long-pointed buds of deep, rich 
red’ with black shadings which open to lovely flow- 
ers of Chrysanthemum Red. Along with its deep, 
rich color, Mirandy possesses a most delicious, full- 
bodied fragrance. The flower displays new beauties 
of form as the petals unfold, and eventually becomes 
a huge, full bloom (50 petals) which last a long time. 
Mirandy reaches its magnificent best in sunshine 
1946. The greatest merit and charm of this new va- 
riety is the changing panorama of colors from bud to 
full flower. Large ovoid buds of yellow open slowly 
into large, fully double, fragrant flowers which are 
at first a cream yellow with a picotee edging of 
warm watermelon pink around the edge of the pet- 
als, then gradually change to a delicate overall flush 
of pink suffused with softening yellow as the blooms 
open. Each stage of development shows different 
color combinations in perfect harmony. Each, $2.00; 
3 for $5.00.
