FASHION. One of the top floribundas being planted 
today. We do not know of anybody that is not en- 
thralled by its fascination. Oriental red buds that are 
just waiting to burst out into exquisitely formed 
blooms in a sparkling new coral-pink that is suffused 
with gold. Very fragrant and a nice growth of about 
3 ft. If you have one, you will want more. No illus- 
tration of this rose can do it justice. Plant three 
Fashion this spring and if you can honestly tell us 
that you don’t like it, we will be glad to refund your 
money—that’s the way we feel about this rose. Pat.

FRENSHAM. English Gold Medal award winner. We 
like this outstanding new crimson red floribunda as 
our idea of what a rose in this class should be. Very 
bushy plants of about 3 ft. $1.50 each. 
MASQUERADE. A sensational riot of every color in 
the rainbow on one plant at the same time. Each bud 
is golden yellow with tiny vermillion marks. As the 
flowers open, each one changes from yellow to silver 
PINKIE. Dainty little pink buds that open to a flower 
of about 2 inches across. Very nice for cutting and 
use in arrangements. 1-2 ft. Pat. 712. $1.75 each. 
ROSE ELFE. Miniature-like hybrid tea flowers that 
are silvery rose pink in color. The gardenia-shaped 
flowers are on this plant continually. Too bad that 
this dainty little rose is not planted more, it could 
easily become a favorite of everybody. 2% ft. $1.50 
each. 
VALENTINE. A _ new floribunda that we listed for 
the first time this past year. Valentine was easily 
one of the “most commented about” roses in our own 
field this past summer. Never without bloom, this 
18 inch high, rich dazzling red, semi-double flori- 
bunda, really took the ‘Ohs”’ and ‘‘Ahs”’. To give 
your garden a splash of color, Valentine will do it. 
Pat. 1029. $2.00 each. 
TAPIS. Another fine new rose from the originator of 
Peace. Pink that we like to call a deep, soft Tyrian- 
rose. The double miniature-like hybrid tea blooms 
hold their shape very well. A gem for corsages. 3 ft. 
Pat. 960. $1.50 each.

Guetaae 2 omt-imelato9/ Ome b2.00neach, WORLD’S FAIR. Still very much a favorite in the 
red floribundas. Clusters of velvety rich scarlet that 
are fairly double. The ideal type of plant to make 
your garden the envy of your neighbors. Pat. 362.
