Cverblooming Hybrid Cea Roses 
Here we list only the very choicest and most popular varieties of 
Tea Roses, with the majority of which every lover of the Rose is 
familiar. Duplicates as well as inferior varieties have been discon- 
tinued. All are good growers and free flowering and will provide you 
with an ample supply of blooms throughout the summer. There is not 
one individual sort which we cannot endorse as possessing superior 
merit. All are two-year-old No. 1 grade. 
Apricot Queen (Plant Patent No. 464) 
Each $1.50. Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
(Award All-America Rose Selections, 1940.) A lovely combination of 
colors is to be noted in this glorious new Rose. Orange and apricot at 
the base of the petals, merging to salmony rose and phlox-pink in the 
fully developed bloom is descriptive. The bud is long-pointed. The fully 
developed flower shows a regular, well-placed petal arrangement. 
A good strong grower, with handsome, leathery foliage which serves as 
a splendid foil to the perfectly formed buds and open bloom. 
Blanche Mallerin (Plant Patent No. 594) 
Each $1.75, Three $4.65. Doz. $18.60 
This is that rare beauty, a pure white, fragrant Hybrid Tea Rose. The 
petals of the beautifully modeled blooms are as white as alabaster, with 
a live, satiny sheen. 
(Plant Patent No. 922) 
Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) Capistrano in bud as well 
as when fully open is noted for its beautiful, translucent, glowing rose- 
pink color. It retains this sparkling brilliance throughout the entire 
life of the flower, never fading or changing. It is one of the most vig- 
orous Roses ever introduced. Large buds, large flowers and extra long 
stems; delightfully fragrant. Here is a Rose with a great future.

Capistrano 
“Babe Ruth” (Plant Patent No. 996) 
Each $2.90, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
It’s a big hit. This fine new Rose performs like the American sports 
hero for whom it was named. Through the entire Rose season, this Rose 
never lets you down; it can be depended upon for a top performance. 
The plants are strong and vigorous. The leathery foliage is green, clean 
and flawless. The buds tell you beforehand that when the flowers open 
something is going to happen, and it does. The heavy petaled, copper- 
salmon buds develop into large, ovoid flowers, the color changing to 
rose-pink as the petals fold back and the flower reaches its zenith. 
The stems are long, unbending and support the flowers in perfect bal- 
ance. Score your bushes for flowers. You will find at the end of the 
season that the new variety ‘Babe Ruth” is always well up among the 
top flight producers in the league of Roses. 
(Plant Patent No. 613) 
Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
Nothing like the color of Butterscotch has so far been seen in Roses and 
very few Roses have as beautifully shaped flowers. The length and 
grace of the flower petals of this new variety are outstanding. The out- 
side of the handsome petals is a soft, pale orange-yellow; the imside 
lemon-chrome at the base, changing to pale yellow-orange, penciled very 
lightly with orange-buff. The general color effect is a soft pastel 
capucine-buff. Visitors last year picked Butterscotch as one of the finest 
and most outstanding Roses in our fields. This variety is an origination 
of the Hill Greenhouses of Richmond, Indiana. We are sure you will 
find Butterscetch one of the choicest Roses you ever grew.
