PATENTED ROSES 
Most ci the newer varieties have been patented. That 
such patented plants are better than some of the older 
non-patn.s is not true. Some of them are; a few of them 
are not. Patent right simply give the introducer the right 
to license their growing by commercial growers and to 
collect a royalty on them. Many of them are outstanding. 
Some of those that we have listed have not been grown 
in this area as yet, but they have nearly all been awarded 
honors oi some kind in competition throughout the country 
and will probably work well. Many of our patents have 
been ALL AMERICAN ROSE SELECTIONS (AARS) which 
means that they have competed and won with all the 
introductions of that year all over the United States. Many 
of the older patents came out before the advent of the 
AARS but would certainly be tops for the year of their 
introduction. 
GRANDIFLORAS 
This brand new rose class just defined by All-America 
Rose Selections is going to do a lot to glamorize Rose gar- 
dens. The flowers have the same high-centered form, long 
stems, and even in some cases the fragrance of the hybrid 
tea roses. The blooms are usually borne in clusters so that 
you get many more of them, and the stems on the blooms 
are long enough for cutting and for effective arrangements. 
The plants are very vigorous and tall growing and can be 
used in many places in the garden design. 
BUCCANEER—is a bright shining butter-cup yellow from 
Armstrongs. It has a long slender tapering bud opening 
to a dazzling yellow. Thirty petalled flower of moderate 
fragrance and great weather resistance. It is very vigor- 
ous reaching five or six feet in a couple of years.

DEAN COLLINS—‘The Lazy Gardener’s Rose.” The first 
of a new class of rose: the Flora-Tea. A cross of Arm- 
strong and Floradora, both AARS winners. The spirea- 
red buds open to full, double, long-lasting blooms of 
luminous rose-opal and carmine. The plants are vigorous 
and upright with glossy dark green, disease- and mildew- 
resistant foliage. This rose is a “toughy” and will per- 
form beautifully with a minimum of care — truly a lazy 
gardener’s rose.
