EVERBLOOMING ROSES 
AARS MEANS All-America Rose Selections. This is a non-profit committee, nationally and interna- 
tionally recognized as the most important rose testing organization. Each year, AARS scientifically tests and 
selects the best of each year’s rose introductions for national awards. All rose entries are planted in 18 test 
gardens distributed throughout America. Competent judges score the entries over a period of two years, and 
at the end of the two year period, the top scoring entry is given the All-America Award. You can be certain 
that any AARS winner is one of AMERICA’S FINEST ROSES.

SUTTER’S GOLD—-(Patent No. 885.) 
TAFFETA—(Patent No. 716.) 
(SEE PICTURE ON 
OPPOSITE PAGE.) Here is the red, red Rose you’ve been 
waiting for! Dark, clear and sparkling in color, the de- 
lightfully fragrant flowers are enormous... often measur- 
ing more than 6 inches across. The color is long lasting 
and very sun resistant, an important quality because as a 
rule red Roses take on a bluish cast in hot weather. New 
Yorker is a welcome exception because it remains clear 
and sparkling throughout a long season. The perfectly 
formed, high-centered blooms are scarlet with rose-red un- 
dertones and each petal is overlaid with a rich sheen of 
velvet. These plants bloom heavily in June on luxurious, 
vigorous, 3 ft. plants with a breath-taking succession of 
flowers from then until cold weather. POSTPAID: Each, 
$2.00; 3 for $5.25.

of this new variety is the changing panorama of colors 
from bud to full flower. Large ovoid buds of yellow open 
slowly into large, fully double, fragrant flowers which are 
at first a cream yellow with a picotee edging of warm 
watermelon pink around the edge of the petals, then grad- 
ually change to a delicate overall flush of pink suffused 
with softening yellow as the blooms open. Each stage of 
development shows different color combinations in perfect 
harmony. POSTPAID: Each, $2.50; 3 for $6.60.

3 for $6.00. 
SEE PICTURE ON OPPO- 
SITE PAGE.) AARS AWARD FOR 1948.) This beautiful

als is yellow. Semi-double and richly fragrant, it is a vig- 
orous grower that will make your garden more beautiful.
