Sutter’s Gold (Plant Patent No. 885) Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) The most outstanding feature of 
Sutter’s Gold is its beautiful, long, pointed yellow bud, richly shaded with 
coppery red. When fully open it is a superb yellow Rose with coppery veins 
through its flower petals. It is an unusually strong grower, free branching and 
exceedingly free blooming for a yellow Rose. The fragrance is excellent, foliage 
very good; all in all a fine addition to the selection of yellow Roses. It also 
won the Foreign Gold Medal in Paris in June, 1948. An international winner. 
Talisman Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
Brilliant red and gold buds, opening to well-shaped blooms of scarlet-orange 
ond rich yellow. Constantly in bloom; the most vivid color yet produced in 
oses. 
The Doctor Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
This magnificent Howard & Smith Rose is internationally recognized as one 
of the outstanding new Roses. We regard this Rose as one of the best; a va- 
riety which will be greatly sought after when better known. The buds are 
long and pointed, expand to a simply enormous bloom in their fully developed 
state. The color is an exquisite silvery pink, uniform in color both in bud and 
open flower with a fragrance that can be detected many yards away.

Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
The glorious new Rose “Tom Breneman’’ was originated by the late Fred 
Howard, America’s leading rosarian. From the time the bud unfurls until the 
last petals fall, you will find nothing flat or dull in this 
variety. Every bud and flower is full of vigor, happiness and 
color. The rugged plants give unstintingly throughout the 
entire season. Other fine Roses have qualities that delight 
the eye, in the sense of form and color, but in addition to 
these lovely attributes, the new Rose ‘Tom Breneman’’ has 
a quality of sweetness that surpasses all Roses in its field 
of color. The long coral-red buds expand slowly into beau- 
tiful, long lasting flowers. During the height of the season, 
when the bushes are covered with their coral-rose buds and 
flowers, that priceless ingredient, fragrance, is so intense 
that those standing close to the plant, inhaling the delicious 
fragrance, always remark—’’Tom Breneman is the Rose we 
have been waiting for.’’

Will Rogers (Plant Patent No. 256) 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
The color is black velvety crimson-maroon, which holds its t 
color till the last petal falls. Its fragrance is so intense that ne 
a few will scent a room with ‘Attar of Roses’ fragrance. 
Strong and vigorous grower with dark green foliage retained 
throughout the season. The blooms are quite double, with 
a beautifully ruffled petal arrangement in the open flower. 
Marvelously free in bloom qualities, bearing lavish quan- 
tities of flowers from April to the advent of following winter 
frost. The Rose, cut in early morning and placed in water, 
will keep in fine condition for five or six days, and during 
this period dispels its most delightful fragrance.
