All-America Bush Roses for 1955 
QUEEN ELIZABETH TIFFANY 
1955 All-America Winner 1955 All-America Winner 
(Pat. No. 1259) (Pat. No. 1304) 
A lovely new rose in the Grandiflora class, 
combining the beauty, size and lasting qualities 
of the Hybrid Tea roses with the freedom of 
bloom of the Floribundas. The broad petalled 
buds and blooms of soft carmine rose blended 
with dawn pink, are delightfully fragrant and 
borne singly and in clusters on long, strong stems, 
nearly thornless. Foliage is exceptionally disease- 
resistant and covers the tall vigorous plants al- 
most to the ground. Queen Elizabeth is a won- 
derful garden rose, and equally fine as a cut 
flower. Shown in color on front cover. $3.00 
Prize winning Hybrid Tea Rose of exceptional 
beauty and outstanding quality. The long pointed 
buds are deep pink with golden yellow shading 
at base of petals, and open to perfectly formed 
double roses with petals of heavy texture, rich 
phlox-pink in color. The flowers are intensely 
fragrant, long lasting, and are produced singly 
on long, strong stems. Plant grows 3 to 4 ft. 
high, vigorous, with handsome deep green foli- 
age. Shown in color on back cover. $3.00 
CHARLIE McCARTHY 
(Patent Applied For) 
A lovely novelty, and one of the most charm- 
ing little roses. The plants are dwarf and bushy, 
globular in shape and not more than 18 inches 
high, with sparkling shiny bright green foliage, 
and resemble neatly clipped boxwood. Miniature 
creamy white buds and pure white roses com- 
pletely cover the plants from spring until fall. 
Plant Charlie McCarthy as a low hedge around 
your rose beds, or use it for massing, and in pots 
for patio decoration. (Shown at left.) $2.00
