Sutter’s Gold 
The First American Rose to 
Win Top National and 
International Awards 
Tallyho 
Here is a color pleasingly different. Inside, the petals are a delightful shade of pink or old 
(GB rose, while on the reverse side they are brilliant crimson! The tall, robust plant has proved 
AA\RS quite hardy, even in areas like Minnesota. Each beautiful ovoid bud opens to a magnificent, 
large, high-centered, fully double flower of exquisite shape, having a spicy, full-bodied 
fragrance. In ‘Proof of the Pudding,’ the annual merit poll conducted by the American Rose 
Society, Tallyho has consistently scored among the top varieties. Originated in the Armstrong Research 
Department by H. C. Swim. Plant Pat. No. 828. $2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.75 each. 
Mirandy 
A huge full bloom (about 50 petals) of dark rich glowing red with the most delicious full- 
@r bodied fragrance you have ever sniffed. In cool foggy weather, the blooms do not always

§ open perfectly, but when it’s warm and the sun shines brightly, Mirandy will produce un- 
beatable red roses. The plant is medium in height, vigorous, and free-branching. Originated 
in the Armstrong Research Department by W. E. Lammerts. Plant Pat. No. 632. 
$2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.75 each. 
Sutter’s Gold 
In addition to an All-America Award for 1950, Sutter’s Gold was 
(GB awarded a Gold Medal at the famous Bagatelle Trials in Paris, 
AA\RS France, and then captured a Gold Medal at the Geneva Rose Trials 
in Switzerland. The long-pointed yellow buds, richly shaded with 
orange and red, are sheer perfection. And the big, high-centered, golden yel- 
low flowers have a tea fragrance richer than that of any other yellow rose. 
Their only fault is a tendency to open a bit quickly in adverse weather. 
Few roses can boast a plant so strong and vigorous. It is tall and upright and 
always covered with an abundance of large glossy leaves which are highly 
resistant to foliage trouble. Originated at Armstrong Nurseries by H. C. Swim. 
Plant Pat. No. 885. $2.25 each; 3 or more, $2.00 each. 
Nocturne 
Nocturne ' 
If you read the ‘Proof of the Pudding,” or any © 
(Gr of the other national rose polls, you'll find Noc- @ 
AA\RS turne rated among the three or four best reds § 
in the country today. It’s easy to see why, too. | 
The long slender buds are beautifully shaped as are the 
big, many-petaled, mildly fragrant flowers, and both have 
plenty of long-lasting substance. The color is a deep vel- 
vety crimson with darker pools of maroon becoming | : 
lighter and brighter in warm weather. The bush is big i 
and sturdy with the stems long and strong and the foliage z 
luxuriant. Unlike some of the popular older red kinds, 
Nocturne is a rose which seems to do well everywhere. 
Originated in the Armstrong Research Department by 
H. C. Swim. Plant Pat. No. 713. 
$2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.75 each.
