The Delightful and Dainty Single Roses 
MONTHLY BLOOMING HYBRID TEAS 
CECIL. (B. R. Cant, 1926.) Yellow. Large, 
single flowers of buttercup-yellow are pro- 
duced on bushy plants with healthy foliage. 
Undoubtedly the finest yellow single Rose. 5 
petals. $1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
DAINTY BESS. (Archer, 1925.) Pink. This 
already old favorite owes its popularity to its 
delightfully informal appearance. The silvery 
salmon-pink petals, surrounding a maroon- 
colored center, are notched and fluted. 6 petals. 
$1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
GROUP OFFER OF SINGLE ROSES 
One each of the seven varieties listed. Every one is charming. 
INNOCENCE. (Chaplin, 1921.) White. The 
large, flat flowers are of the purest crystalline 
white, and the wine-red stamens tipped with 
gold accentuate the freshness of this vigorous, 
hardy single. 12 petals. $1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
IRISH FIREFLAME. (A. Dickson, 1914.) 
Orange-crimson flowers shaded pink and gold; 
pleasingly fragrant. A profuse bloomer, fine for 
table decoration. 5 petals. $1.75 each; 3 for 
$4.75. 
Small-Flowered POLYANTHA ROSES 
The individual flowers in this class are smaller, though very often the clusters are as large 
as Floribundas; heights in general are lower so these make good edging plants or low mass 
plantings. All Polyanthas are as nearly everblooming as Roses can be. They live and bloom 
year after year with comparatively little attention. 
PLANTING DISTANCE: Average 15 inches. 
HEIGHT: Average 15 to 18 inches. 
PRUNING: Prune lightly to desired height, removing old cluster heads and thin out dead wood. 
CAMEO. (de Ruiter, 1932.) Salmon. A distinct 
shade of shell-pink and salmon, with a glow of 
gold. A compromise between the pink and the 
orange-salmon Roses. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
CAROL ANN. (A. Kluis, 1940.) Pat. 707. 
Salmon-orange. Globe-shaped flowers in large 
clusters. The plants seldom attain a height of 
over 1 foot. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
Hysrip PERPETUAL ROSES 
Perfection in size of flower, fragrance, disease resistance, and 
strength of growth predominate in this class, and while most varieties 
flower only in June and July, many will repeat throughout the summer 
and fall, a few even repeating heavily enough to rival some of the 
Hybrid Teas. Varieties which repeat are indicated by an (R). 
Their uses are varied. They can be grown as bedding Roses at a 
height of 3 to 4 feet, or allowed to grow into shrubs up to 6 feet in 
height. A few of the more vigorous growers can be trained as pillars, 
giving remarkable displays of bloom in June and July; also by peg- 
ging down the long canes they can be used as specimen plants on
