JAY AND ELLEN HERRING’S FAVORITE DOZEN ROSES FOR 1954 
We talked this over a long time before we decided that it would work out best with two plants each of these favorites to make the dozen. 
2 CHRYSLER IMPERIAL 2 TALLYHO 2 CHARLOTE ARMSTRONG 
2 LOWELL THOMAS 2 MARK SULLIVAN 
There they are, two plants each of these six 
varieties, value $26.50, for 
HAPPINESS 
(Pat. 911) Brilliant, flaming red blooms with amazing substance and 
texture in the petals. The introducer says, ‘Firm and heavy, like 
highly polished, dark red leather.'’ You'll like the vivid color, and 
the fact that while it changes to carmine-crimson as it matures it does 
not blue. The fully open flower is a@ unique sight, with roiled and 
pointed petals surrounding the high center. Fine for cutting, with 
long stems. $2.50 each; 3 for $6.60 
SIERRA GLOW 
(Pat. 521) We strongly urge you to plant this rose. It has rece:ved only 
moderate publicity in the country as a whole, so many gardeners have 
missed seeing it, but in southern gardens it reaches a perfection which 
is absolutely marvelous. In the center of the bloom and at the base of 
the petals is a most unusual tan shade, while the outer petals are a 
beautiful silvery pink. High-centered and lovely at every stage; long- 
lasting on the plant or when cut. Spicy old rose frogrance. 
$1.75 each; 3 for $4.65 
KATHERINE T. MARSHALL 
@ (Pat. 607) Chosen by experts as one of the 10 best roses of all
