CHINA DOLL—Bloom Lavish. 
RED PINOCCHIO. Floribunda. Patent 812. ARS 87%. Average 
Height 30 inches. Donald Prior’s marriage into the Pinnocchio family 
resulted in this fine velvety-red, identical otherwise with original Pinocchio 
described herein. Came through the critical judgment of the ARS members 
with an 87% national rating! Is certainly maintaining the family reputa- 
tion in a big way! Thought by many to be the finest of all the Pinocchios.

ROSENELFE. Floribunda. ARS 89%. 2 feet. 
Once again, I cannot be merely factual, as this old friend dates back to 
my first real rose-garden in Redlands, where I can see it blooming now in 
happy memory. The LaFrance pink, double blooms are Hybrid Tea form, 
smaller, tighter and longer lasting, excellent for cutting. Rated by ARS, 
second only to Fashion and The Fairy among the pinks, but, of course, 
is entirely different in form and purpose. I shall always grow Rosenelfe, 
let all newcomers be, as they may be. 3 for 3.85 each 1.90 
SHEELAGH BAIRD. Poly. 2-3 feet. 
An Irish colleen of great beauty, exclusive to this catalog. “Shell-pink 
overlaid rich rose-pink,”’ . . . good-sized blooms in large trusses, all season. 
Different and intriguing, like all the Irish—bless‘em. 3 for 3.85 each 1.50 
SNOWBANK. Floribunda. Patent 279. 1¥2-2 feet. 
Was first attracted to Snowbank in Paul Howard's large display garden, 
Sawtelle, California, where its plant and bloom quality, stood out, at that 
viewing, from all the others. Rated among the low growers. The blossoms 
are large for its type, semi-double, starting palest of pale pinks, turning 
pure white when fully opened. Has a sort of ethereal beauty which needs 
a woman's word for it. S fone. ecenel ou 
SUMMER SNOW. Floribunda. Patent 416. ARS 84%. 3 feet. 
Tops the ARS ratings for the whites, after 5 years of national testing. Owes 
its popularity chiefly to its lavish bloom—the 3¥%2 inch flowers are a mass 
‘of pure white, contrasting and enhancing your reds, yellows and pinks. 
Can be kept to 2 feet with judicious pruning. 3 for 4.00 each 1.50
