TWO Exclusive Introductions 
RED JACKET (Plant Patent 968) 
Cclor: a brand-new Rose and a brand-new shade of red. Size: the clus- 
ters of 3 to 5 plump, ovoid buds open to medium-large, 4-inch blooms 
with unusual refleved petals. Fragrance: slight but pleasingly sweet. 
Average Mature Height: Zones 2-3, 2 to 2% ft.; Zones 4-5, 2% to 3 
ft.; Zones 6-7-8, 2% to 4 ft. 
So unique is this new Rose introduction that it deserves the honor 
of commemorating the name of that beloved Chief of the Senecas, Red 
Jacket. Chief Red Jacket was a great leader of his people—an Indian 
Chief who became nationally and internationally famous as an orator, 
a man beloved by his white brothers. 
The new RED JACKET, likewise a leader, is the outstanding red 
Floribunda of the 20th century. 
Red Jacket combines many of the finest characteristics of America’s 
greatest Rose favorites. We have to call it a red, but it is unlike any 
other Floribunda red ever introduced. It’s a red beyond all descrip- 
tion—a red that speaks loudly for itself. 
The robust growth of the plant is another of its finest assets. The 
beautifully branching plant throws out long, straight flower stems, 
crowned with magnificent flowers of an exquisite shape, so different, 
so rare and unusual that it stands in a class by itself. 
The healthy, large, leathery foliage is a rich dark green, very disease 
resistant. 
CAVALCADE (Plant Patent 991) 
(Teucrium in foreground) 
Color: blending of carmine-crimson, orange-yellow and_ silvery pink 
shades. Size: Hybrid-Tea-like buds, open to double, 2%- to 3-inch 
blooms. Average Mature Height: Zones 2-3, 2 to 2% ft.; Zones 4-5, 
27% to 3 ft.: Zones 6-7-8, 2% to 4 ft. Fragrance: rich fruity Rasp- 
berry-like. 
Cavaleade is probably the most spectacular hi-colored Floribunda. 
Its glowing shades contrast vividly yet blend together beautifully. It 
must be seen to be appreciated. It is a Boskoop, Holland, creation. 
It was brought to America by L. P. Akenhead, our Managing Director 
of Plant Production. Exclusive propagation rights were purchased from 
the creator in Holland.
