Nocturne (U. S. Plant Patent No. 713) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
All-America Selection for 1946. This new red Rose has one of the 
ne longest, most perfect, streamlined buds displayed by any Rose in its 
3 color. The color is bright cardinal-red with dark, deep intriguing shad- 
ings of chrysanthemum-crimson. The large petals have good substance, 
are richly textured, and there are plenty of them so that the flowers 
§ last a long time. In hot weather the color becomes somewhat lighter. 
—o— The blooms of NOCTURNE are pleasantly fragrant although not ap- 
proaching Mirandy in this respect. The stems are long, the foliage 
large, abundant, and semi-glossy. The plant displays plenty of vigor 
and quickly grows into a big sturdy bush in the garden. Reports from 
the official All-America test gardens throughout the country were uni- 
formly good, and other test plantings have aroused much enthusiasm. 
Radiance Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
An ideal bedding Rose that continues to produce its long flowers throughout the 
most unfavorable not weather when frequently many other varieties fail. A bril- 
liant carmine-pink, with salmon-pink and yellow shadings at base of petals. 
Red Radiance Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
A counterpart of Radiance from which it is a “sport”, possessing all the good traits 
of that valuable variety but differing in color which is a bright cerise-red. 
Nocturne 
Mirandy (Plant Patent No. 632) _ Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
(Award All-America Selections, 1945.) The first place winner of the All- 
America Rose Competition for 1945. A gorgeous, fragrant, red Rose that 
takes its place with the finest red Roses of the world. The big, ovoid buds, 
often long-pointed, are deep, rich dark red with black shadings, opening 
to a gorgeous Chrysanthemum-red. The flower dis- 
plays new beauties of form as the petals unfold and 
eventually becomes a large full bloom, with excellent 
lasting qualities. Mirandy has a wonderful, pene- 
trating, Damask fragrance which many will say ts the 
finest Rose fragrance they have ever inhaled. The 
plant is strong, free branching, with heavy stout 
stems, and keeps producing its glorious flowers freely 
all season against a background of dark green, heavy 
textured foliage. 
Mission Bells (Plant Patent No. 923) 
Each $2.25, Three $6.06, Doz. $24.00 
: (Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) Mission Bells is 
a deep, glowing salmon opening to a brilliant clear shrimp-pink. The 
I flowers are ful! centered, and when fully open measure as much as 5 V2 
| inches across. It is unusually vigorous and free branching, producing 
| flowers in abundance. This variety will do well for all Rose growers and 
surely deserves the award it was given. 
Mrs. Erskine Pembroke Thom Each $1.35, Three $3.79, Doz. $13.50 
} Over the years gone by this Rose has performed beautifully and must 
| 1 not be forgotten. Yellow Roses are not plentiful and in our 
1 opinion this one is better than many other yellows of recent 
introduction. The flowers are many, of good form and rich 
golden yellow with somewhat deeper 
tone towards the center. It is a good 
grower and free bloomer with 
excellent foliage and habit. 
Not new but not surpassed.
