FIESTA—Co tor ILLustraTIon NEEDED HERE! 
First Love. Patent 921. ARS 81%—Av. Ht. 38”. I read the rather prosaic 
publicity for this new Swim-Armstrong creation and wonder if he or she who 
wrote it, has forgotten ‘“‘first love.’’ Say the originators—‘‘all the heat does is 
provide a little variation in color . . . the double form is graceful and distinctive 
.. . Color delicate, pale dawn-pink . . . blooms in long stemmed singles. Its fine 
California performance appears to be equalled throughout the country.’’ We can 
Say no more, except it costs this season 3 for 6.00 €ach 2.25 
P.S. Do you suppose this is only the beginning? Is Swim going on producing 
Second, Third, Fourth Love and so on ad infinitum until he reaches Casanova!?! 
“Just now in the light of a beautiful full moon my ‘First Love,’ with nine perfect buds 
held upright to the stars, is a picture of enthralling loveliness.’’—Mrs. C. Leslie Isham, 
Encino, California. 
Flash. Patent 396. Let all the bicolors stand to attention! Here comes the 
captain of them all! Not a rampant climber but vigorous growth to 6-8 feet, with 
glossy almost rugose foliage. What color! As brilliant in effect as Austrian Cop- 
per . . . the cupped double flowers are velvety scarlet-red, with old-gold reverse 
.. . profuse spring and early summer bloom, occasionally recurrent. If it bloomed 
only for one week, you should have this one! 
Rated by Neville Miller, Palmerton, Pennsylvania, where the winters are 
tough and rough,—'‘satisfactory hardiness without protection, very little die-back.”’
