Patented Everblooming 
Hybrid Tea Roses 
COMMANDO. Plant Pat. 702. A two-tone rose with 
huge flowers of the most delicate salmon-pink 
with brilliant yellow toward the base of the 
petals. 
ECLIPSE. Plant Pat. 172. Long streamlined buds, 
enhanced by ornamental sepals, are rich gold 
petals large and tough, but not numerous, aver- 
aging 20 to 25 with more in the Autumn. 
HEART’S DESIRE. Plant Pat. 501. In this Gold 
Medal variety your heart’s desire for a red rose 
bordering on perfection will be attained. Large 
_and double, with a wonderful fragrance. One of 
the best red roses. 
PEACE. Plant Pat. 591. An All-America Rose. 
Here is the unusual and beautiful in roses. The 
large gardenia like bloom opens from long yellow 
buds. A most interesting fact about this rose is 
the variance of color shown. It starts from a sun 
gold bud-opening to a pale yellow on through a 
soft rose and finally bursts forth with an ala- 
baster white bloom ruffled with pink scallons. 
The foliage is a dark glossy green. This rose 
is recommended for all sections of the country. 
SANTA ANITA, Plant Pat. 834. A perfectly formed 
bud of deep pink. The plant blooms plentifully 
all during the hot weather. 
SLEIGH BELLS. Plant Pat. 1004. The large, ovoid 
buds are borne singly on exceedingly long stems, 
and are produced so freely that you can gather 
quantities for the table. The flowers open gradu- 
ally into blooms of great size, with 40 or more 
petals of heavy substance, and are lovely in all 
stages. A trace of primrose at the base of the 
petals adds life to the flower. Unusual for white 
roses, the stems are clothed with thick, leathery, 
glossy foliage that is exceptionally disease re- 
sistant. Best of all this white rose is really frag- 
rant. Sleigh Bells is the better white rose you 
have been looking for.

Hardy Climbing Roses 
Climbing Roses are popular everywhere and much ~ 
in demand to beautify every garden. They are used 
for arbors, fences, pergolas, Summer houses, ter- © 
races, screening unsightly views; in fact, they are 
a source of comfort to the home owner. Fragrant, 
hardy, quick-growing, permanent and easily pruned, — 
they will find a place in every garden. In the Spring, 
cut out old or dead wood and shorten the laterals 
and long shoots to make the growth conform to the © 
space to be covered. A severe pruning in July, after — 
they have finished blooming, is beneficial. This will 
encourage a vigorous growth which will give an — 
abundance of flowers the next season. 
GOLD RUSH. A vigorous climber, producing mass- — 
es of handsome yellow flowers; has nice foliage 
and unlike most hardy climbers, it will produce — 
flowers on its new growth for the season. 
NEW DAWN. Apple-blossom-pink. Everblooming. 
The first hardy everblooming climber. It is a 
sport of the well-known Dr. W. Van Fleet which — 
only blooms in June; New Dawn is destined to 
take its place because of strong everblooming — 
characteristics . and equally as vigorous and 
healthy growth habit. ; 
PAUL SCARLET CLIMBER. An intensely red 
flower, borne in loose clusters. Best used as a 
pillar because of. its restricted height. Unques- 
tionably hardy and reliable. The most popular 
of all climbers. ;
