Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.09 my We 1 IG 
The perfectly formed, high-centered blooms are scarlet with rose-red 
| undertones and each petal is overlaid with a rich sheen of velvet. 
Plants bloom heavily in. June on luxurious, vigorous, 3-foot plants with 
a breath-taking succession of flowers from then until cold weather. 
Nocturne (U.S. Plant Patent No. 713) 
| Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
| All-America Selection for 1946. This new red Rose has one of the 
' longest, most perfect, streamlined buds displayed by any Rose in its 
color. The color is bright cardinal-red with dark, deep intriguing shad- 
ings of chrysanthemum-crimson. The large petals have good substance, 
are richly textured, and there are plenty of them so that the flowers 
last a long time. In hot weather the color becomes somewhat lighter. 
\ The blooms of NOCTURNE are pleasantly fragrant although not ap- 
‘ proaching Mirandy in this respect. The stems are long, the foliage 
large, abundant, and semi-glossy. The plant displays plenty of vigor 
and quickly grows into a big sturdy bush in the garden. Reports from 
the official All-America test gardens throughout the country were uni- 
formly good, and other test plantings have aroused much enthusiasm. 
Poinsettia Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
We have no hesitancy in stating that this Rose is the most brilliant red 
Rose ever produced. ‘’Crimson Glory’”’ is admittedly a magnificent piece 
of color, but the color is dull by comparison. The name of this Rose is 
a descriptive one, and was suggested by Dr. J. Horace McFarland of the 
American Rose Society. It is close to a poinsettia-scarlet. The buds 
are ideal in form, long and pointed; fairly full petalage, a good grower 
and fine as a cut flower. This Rose was awarded a Certificate of Merit 
by American Rose Society, 1938. 
Nocturne 
Santa Anita (Plant Patent No. 539) 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.90 
Santa Anita is an outstanding Rose. The perfectly formed, long, pointed 
buds unfold into beautifully shaped flowers of pure peach-blossom-pink. 
No matter how hot or how brilliant the sun may be, the color of Santa 
Anita remains pure. There is no bleaching or discoloration from bud 
to faded flower. The color is ‘’sunfast.’’ Santa Anita is the first Rose 
to bloom and it flowers bountifully from beginning to the end of the 
season. The plants are rugged and not too tall. A lovely pink variety 
which, because of its merits, belongs among the best of the pink Roses. 
Shangri-la (Plant Patent No. 665) 
Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
The long, pointed buds of Shangri-la are perfect, and upon opening 
show a rare combination of tints and shades; blush, salmon and rose 
delicately blended yet clear and sparkling like dawn itself. The bushes 
are vigorous with ample dark rich green foliage as well as fine stems 
for cutting. It is our firm belief that the color and freshness of 
Shangri-la will brighten your Rose horizon for many a year. 
Souer Therese (Sister Therese) Hach $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
Long, pointed buds are chrome-yellow, heavily marked with carmine; 
the open flower is rich daffodil-yellow and holds its color well. Sweet- 
brier fragrance. The blooms come freely on splendid cutting stems. 
You can always recognize this Rose from its habit of forming sturdy, 
3-foot, upright canes, which are topped by a “‘lighted’’ candelabra of 
five or more burning yellow blooms. 
Sterling Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
A magnificent flaming pink flower of superb form in bud as well as 
open. The base of the bloom is yellow, giving it a richness as well as 
clarity of color seldom observed. It has excellent foliage, grows strongly 
and blooms very freely in summer as well as in autumn. A sterling 
novelty. Winner of the Hubbard Medal. 
San Fernando 
New Yorker 
Radiance Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
An ideal bedding Rose that continues to produce its long flowers through- 
out the most unfavorable hot weather when frequently many other varie- 
ties fail. A brilliant carmine-pink, with salmon-pink and yellow shading 
at base of the petals. 
Red Radiance Each $1.35, Three, $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
A counterpart of Radiance from which it is a ‘sport,’ possessing all the 
good ais of that valuable variety but differing in color which is a bright 
cerise-red. 
Rubaiyat (Plant Patent No. 758) Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
Long, shapely buds of delicate crimson-pink; large blooms, opening slowly, 
rich crimson to red-rose. Delightful fragrance. Extra tall, vigorous. 
San Fernando (U. S. Plant Patent No. 785) 
Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 “a 
The introduction of this grand Rose is an important milestone in 
the production of better red Roses. Competent judges who have 
seen the elegant red Rose in bloom, rank it high among the best 
of its color. The bright vermilion buds are long and pointed, 
opening into fully double flowers of vermilion-scarlet. In addi- 
tion to the elegant form and brilliant color, SAN FERNANDO has another out- 
standing quality—intense and lasting fragrance. The vigorous growth, fine foliage, 
brilliant color and pointed form are sufficient qualities to recommend any Rose, 
but when you add the spicy old rose fragrance to these qualities, it can be truth- 
fully said that San Fernando, the new red Rose, will be among the leading varieties 
for a long time to come.
