Forty- Niner 
Orient red and yellow Medium, erect plant 
Brightest bi-color Long, sturdy stems 
Large, lasting blooms Grows well everywhere 
The face of the petals is vivid red while the reverse 
is chrome to straw yellow! The glowing combina- 
tion is startling and novel enough to demand every- 
one’s attention, and yet it is gay and pleasing, too. 
Even as the flowers age, the contrasting colors, in 
lighter shades, remain attractive until the last petal 
falls. Plant Pat. No. 792. 
$2.25 each; 3 or more, $2.00 each. 
Sutter’s Gold 
Yellow—red veining Tall, vigorous plant 
Most fragrant yellow Mildew-resistant foliage 
Perfect, long buds Grows well everywhere 
This was the first American rose to make a clean 
sweep of the top national and international awards 
in a single year (1950)—All-America, Bagatelle 
(France), Geneva (Switzerland). The beautiful ta- 
pering buds on long stout stems and the lovely high- 
centered opening blooms (with more fragrance 
than those of any other yellow rose) are truly gar- 
den treasures. Plant Pat. No. 885. 
$2.25 each; 3 or more. $2.00 each. 
Nocturne 
Deep, dark red Large, husky plant 
Long, slender buds Long, stout stems 
Big, colorfast blooms Good in all areas 
Nocturne would deserve its high rating in every 
national popularity poll if only for the beautiful 
form in both bud and flowers and the richness of 
its velvety deep red color. But Nocturne outdoes 
most others in that it is one of the few red roses 
which does well in all regions. Plant Pat. No. 713. 
$2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.75 each.
