TAFFETA 
Pat. No. 716. Taffeta is outstanding for its ability 
to produce many long-stemmed, perfectly formed, 
fragrant buds in the rich pink and salmon shades 
which almost everyone likes. Generally it is a rich 
Carmine Rose in the bud, changing to Begonia Rose 
in the open flower, but it will also show intriguing 
combinations of rose-pink, salmon, and apricot. Frill- 
ed and delicately veined petals make up the perfect 
slender bud which opens to a semi-double flower with 
about 21 crisp petals and a very pronounced fra- 
grance. The plant is larger than average in size, 
vigorous and upright with big leaves of rich dark 
glossy green. A pleasing contrast in foliage is provid- 
ed by the new growth which is always an attractive 
mahogany red, .................2 $1.50 each, 3 for $3.75

TALLYHO 
Pat. Applied. Is a Hybrid Tea Rose resulting from a 
cross of Charlotte Armstrong and an unnamed red rose. 
It combines many of the finest characteristics found in 
the best roses on the market today with a color which 
is entirely new to roses. Inside of the petals is al- 
ways a delightful shade of pink, such as tyrian rose, 
china rose, phlox pink, or neyron rose, and the outside 
of the petals varies from crimson to cardinal red. Al- 
though it is a bi-color, the contrast is not great. The 
buds are not as long as those of Charlotte Armstrong 
but are ovoid in shape, opening to flowers with a few 
more petals than those of Charlotte Armstrong, and 
full of spicy fragrance. Robust growth one of the 
finest characteristics. ........ $1.75 each, 3 for $4.50
