Marvelous new Floribunda with an iridescent, brilliantly glowing color of 
begonia-rose flushed with salmon. The individual flowers, 3 to 4 inches in

Hybrid Tea Rose, Fred Howard (Page 84) 
_One of the last creations of the dean of American rosarians and one of 
his best, this Rose was named to honor its producer, Fred Howard. The long, 
rich yellow buds are tipped with a delicate penciling of light pink and 
when the buds open you see a full double, high centered, beautifuily form- 
ed flower. 
Hybrid Tea Rose, Helen Traubel (Page 85) 
The color is distinctive—clear pastel tones of pink to apricot even ap- 
Proaching orange at times. It has an unusually long, graceful bud, a very 
large open flower with good form, fine substance and a pleasing fragrance. 
The plant has preven to be exceedingly vigorous with us. One of those 
easy to grow kinds which grades up without any trouble.

plants grow 21% to 3 ft. tall or better when established. All-America Rose

Certificate, Bagatelle, Paris, 1950. 
Floribunda Rose, Ma Perkins (Page 98) 
Although the Ophelia-shaped buds start a translucent Fashion color, 
fortified by shades of red in the outer petals, the flowers burst open to 
coral-shell. The suffusion of yellow is present in all of the early stages 
until at the very end of bloom, it finishes a soft shell-pink. 
The flowers appear in clusters and singly throughout the season. The 
color is sparkling from start to finish and the rich fragrance is unusual. 
All-America Award Winner for 1953. 
Hybrid Tea Rose, Mojave (Page 85) 
Glowing radiant orange is the dominant color, highlighted by flame-like 
tones of scarlet and vermilion. Next to color, the outstanding feature of 
Mojave is the amazing number of long-stemmed buds it produces. 
Outstanding New Roses 
Peace (Page 92) 
Perhaps the most popular Rose today. One marvel of it is the dawnlike range of colors 
through which it passes from opening yellow buds, each petal edged with pink that seems to 
deepen as the flower slowly opens. The shades of color vary, too, from flower to flower and 
through the changing seasons. Though the bloom is unusually large, long lasting and con- 
stantly fresh looking, its effect is always delicate and lovely. The individual petals are long 
and of great substance, gradually opening, a few at a time, around a high-pointed center, 
to a great, golden hearted, very double, fully open flower. 
Floribunda Rose, Connie Mack (Page 99) 
The flowers are a dark, velvety crimson growing in graceful clusters which have aptly 
been called ‘florists’ spray’’ Roses. The foliage represents a marked advance in Rose breed- 
ing, being almost immune to attacks of mildew. Many clusters of bloom with long stems 
and long lasting qualities are produced from spring through fall. You will find the Rose 
“Connie Mack’’ to be one of the choice Floribunda Roses. The sturdiness and vigor of this 
variety make it a superb garden plant as well as one of the best for cutting, not to mention 
as a flowering Rose hedge. 
Hybrid Tea Rose, Hedda Hopper (Page 88) 
A rare combination of delicacy and sturdiness is the Rose ‘‘Hedda Hopper.’’ The delicate 
pink of the flowers in all stages of opening is unusual in itself but together with such a 
sweet perfume, it is rare indeed. The buds of ‘’Hedda Hopper’’ slowly open to a full cen- 
tered, well formed, long lasting flower. Undulations of the petals add a unique feature 
while the characteristic of retaining its form until the petals drop will continually amaze 
the proud growers of this new Rose.

Hybrid Tea Rose, Remembrance (Page 83) 
Remembrance produces gorgeous Roses on long erect stems. The deep canary-yellow buds. 
are borne singly at the tips or terminals of the stems. When fully expanded, a beautiful 
dawn-pink flushes the tips of the laminated petals. During its development, there emanates 
from the flowers a sheen and a glow that transforms it into Gardenia-like perfection and 
beauty. Its lovely form, beautiful tints and delicate coloring as well as its strong and vig- 
orous growth make it a Rose you wil! long remember. 
When this new Rose is sent to a friend or planted in your garden all will say no 
finer Rose could have been chosen to bear the significant name ‘7REMEMBRANCE.”

Fascinating new Floribunda of coral-pink overlaid with gold. Rich Orien- 
Butterscotch (Page 84) 
Introduced three years ago, Butterscotch is making a name for itself and 
continues to delight gardeners everywhere with its warm, glowing color and 
artistic shape. For outstanding performance and beauty, this superb Tea 
Rose cannot be equalled nor can its rare color be matched by any other 
variety. 
tal red buds open into 34-inch blooms of clear coral that later deepen 
to red tones. Bushy 3-ft. plants produce large clusters of delighfully fra- 
grant flowers from early summer till frost. 
Cwo Remarkably ine Perpetual lowering Climbers 
Climbing Rose, Inspiration (Page 107) 
Inspiration is an appropriate companion Rose for the new Dream Girl 
with similar growth habit. It is not too rampant or tall growing and so 
has many uses on trellises, arbors, and pillars of medium size and height. 
Successive crops follow from June on through October and show the same 
sparkling pink tones as found in that fine old Hybrid Tea, Pink Radiance, 
and the once-blooming Mary Wallace Climber. It is very hardy, reliabte 
and free-blooming in all sections, same as Dream Girl Climber. 
Climbing Rose, Dream Girl (Page 107) 
The new everblooming Hardy Climber and Pillar Rose. This variety fills 
a long-felt need for a real coral-pink, full-petaled, hardy Climbing Rose. 
Another most appealing quality is its pleasant spicy and penetrating fra- 
grance. The blooms last for days after cutting. Beginning in June when 
older Climbers like Mary Wallace, Dr. Van Fleet and others in this class. 
finish blooming, Dream Girl produces successive crops of flowers through- 
out the summer, ending with a gorgeous display in late fall. It has neat, 
compact habit which allows for easy training on a 6- to 8-foot trellis or 
arbor; also does well when trained as a ‘’Pillar’’ Rose. 
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, TWO GRAND FLORIBUNDA ROSES 
Rosenelfe (Page 96) 
Graceful clusters of dainty La-France-pink flowers superbly suited for 
cutting and table decoration. The handsomely shaped small buds or 
open blooms lend themselves perfectly to any kind of decoration. In the 
garden they never fail to draw attention.

Glorious (Page 97) 
Extremely vigorous bushes, well branched, producing strong canes that 
divide into many open sprays, bearing informal clusters of deep ver- 
milion buds, expanding into semi-double flowers’ of Tyrian rose. It can be 
truthfully said, the flowers cover the plants. For mass planting or group- 
ing; a fact, for any situation where a wealth of color is desired, it is 
superb.
