ALL TIME ALL AMERICAN ROSES | 
PEACE 
Ton winner at Rete Shaws 
all auer the world, 
Our best Rose of all time. 
Certainly this All-America Winner is one of the. 
@ most beautiful of all Roses. Perhaps its chief beauty 
is the great range of colors through which it passes. 
The full ovoid bud is deep yellow, with the edges of the 
petals picoted cerise. It slowly opens to a glorious 5-inch 
bloom with shades of canary-yellow, pale gold, cream, 
pearly white, and apple blossom. Although the bloom is 
unusually large, double and long-lasting, the dainty 
coloring gives it marvelous beauty. The plant is just 
as large and fine as the blooms, being above average 
in size, and the flowers are borne on long straight stems 
above the vigorous shining foliage. The fragrance is 
moderate. No such amazing combination of strong 
stems, fine lasting qualities, and huge, perfectly formed, 
delicately colored Roses, ever existed before. Plant Pat.

HELEN TRAUBEL 
A distinctively vew Rade 
of nare coler and growth 
Once in a while a new rose appears which from 
& the very first displays such superior qualities that 
there is never any doubt about its ultimate popular- 
ity. Such a rose is Helen Traubel which we think is 
probably the finest new variety that we have introduced 
since Charlotte Armstrong. The All-American judges 
have confirmed our opinion by honoring it with an AARS 
Award for 1952. In Italy the Gold Medal of Rome was 
conferred upon it in June 1951. The color varies with 
the weather — sometimes a light sparkling pink, more 
often a luminous apricot color (its most characteristic 
shade), sometimes verging into a ripe bronzy orange. Its 
unusually large, long slender buds are magnificent in 
themselves. The half-open flower maintains a delightful 
fullness of form, and even when fully blown, the big 
petaled flowers display the lovely color in a lavish way 
(about 27 petals). The flowers are often 6 inches across 
but always graceful. It has a mild pleasant fragrance.
