Hybrid Sea Roses 
California Centennial (Plant Patent Rights Reserved) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.00, Doz. $20.00 
A new, intensely fragrant, glowing crimson Rose of the most remarkable 
substance we have aver encountered in Roses. California Centennial is 
a vigorous grower with 3-foot canes on which thorns are so few they 
are negligible. The flower shoots break away well down on the parent 
canes, affording strong stems 18 inches or more in length, which makes 
it a perfect variety for cutting. The long, spiral crimson buds are beau- 
tifully formed, opening to a deep crimson-red which does not fade or 
turn blue. The texture of the petals as well as the color are two out- | 
standing fine points. The flowers when fully open are the most brilliant 
crimson of any Rose in our test garden. Under close observation it has 
been noted that CALIFORNIA CENTENNIAL gives a wealth of beautiful 
Roses throughout the entire season.

Charlotte Armstrong (Patented) 
Each $1.50, Three $3.75, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) A Rose of a most unusual 
color, blood-red in the bud, opening to cerise in hot weather and to 
spectrum-red in cool weather, while the beautiful shape and extreme 
length of the bud, with its long, clasping sepals and the extreme florif- 
erousness and vigor of growth and large, luxurious foliage, make it a 
most satisfactory Rose in all respects. The bud is long and pointed; the 
flower is 3 or 4 inches in diameter, high-centered, never showing the 
center. The foliage is leathery, semi-glossy, deep green and highly 
resistant to mildew. 
Countess Vandal Each $1.50, Three $3.75, Doz. $15.00

Crimson Glory (Plant Patent No. 105) 
Each $1.50, Three $3.75, Doz. $15.00 
The plants branch freely, producing a well spread, yet compact bush 
of good symmetry. Following the large, urn-shaped buds are the well- 
formed flowers of an intense deep vivid crimson shaded oxblood-red 
and mellowed by a soft velvety nap.

“The Commander's Rose.’ This vigorous American Rose requires no 
coddling, asks no favors. It has grown well and proven its value and 
worth in all sections of our country. The strong bushes send up numer- 
ous shoots which are loaded with an unbelievable number of buds. As a 
flag unfurls, the long, graceful, Tulip-shaped buds open slowly into 
glorious flowers of fine proportions. To specify the color of this Rose 
in definite terms taken from color charts is impossible. Rose, gold and 
salmon are all exquisitely blended! into a flower of regal beauty. 
Eclipse (Plant Patent No. 172) Each $1.50, Three $3.75, Doz. $15.00 
Golden yellow. An entirely new type with ‘‘stream-lined’’ buds which

depend on “Eclipse’’ for almost continuous bloom on strong, upright 
plants with healthy, dark green foliage. The flowers are produced on 
lona, erect stems, suitable for cutting.
