to 4 inch blooms. The petals of this high centered flower

pink, with good fragrance. Capistrano grows about 5-6 
ft. in height and is well clothed in heavy, leathery foliage. 
PLANT PAT. 922 
CAPRICE $1.50 
A red blend with a reverse of yellow on a vigorous, glossy 
reddish-green bushy plant. A prolific bloomer for us and

Takes partial shade. 
CHARLES MALLERIN (Meilland ’51) $2.50 
A magnificent deep red rose whose petals have a blackish 
sheen and velvety texture. Extremely fragrant. It is a 
strong grower and may send out extremely vigorous 
ground canes which do not always make for a well bal- 
anced plant. PLANT PAT. 233 
(Lammerts °40) $2.00 
CHARLOTTE ARMSTRONG 
One of the finest roses ever introduced because of its 
abundance of excellent bloom and robust plant. The blood 
red buds are long, pointed and open to deep pink or red 
blooms depending on weather conditions. At its best in 
warmer areas. 
CHRISTOPHER STONE $1.50 
This large, vivid scarlet rose with a velvety crimson sheen 
PLANT PAT. 455 
ALL-AMERICA ROSE SELECTION 
in the open flower will be one of the most brilliant and 
colorful in your garden. The bud is long, pointed, and 
moderately fragrant. The foliage is a bronzy green that 
may mildew and rust in those areas where such diseases 
are a problem. 
CHRYSLER IMPERIAL $2.50 
Undoubtedly the best all ’round red rose. Flowers are 
large, very double, and have a fine fragrance. Plants are 
bushy, compact, and generous with their blooms. Foliage 
is a semi-glossy dark green that is disease resistant. 
PLANT PAT. 1167 
CRESTED PINK MOSS $1.50 
The favorite of the pink mosses and probably the one your 
grandmother had. The unopened buds are charming with 
their three crested or tufted sepals. The full blown rose 
is very double and pleasantly fragrant. It is best used in 
the background of your garden. 
CRIMSON GLORY (Kordes) $1.50 
In some sections of the country this rose has been ac- 
claimed the best red rose. Of perfect form, the large, 
double urn-shaped flowers are a deep velvety crimson 
and intensely fragrant. The plant is a vigorous, bushy 
grower and continuous bloomer. At best in warm 
climates. 
DAINTY BESS $1.25 
Dusky pink with crimson stamens. One of the loveliest 
and most popular of the singles. Good as a cut flower if 
cut in a tight bud. 
DUCHESS of PENARANDA $1.25 
Here is an appealing color. The buds are brilliant orange, 
opening to coppery apricot. However, this color does 
change at different times of the year and as the flower 
ages. The plant is a strong grower with plenty of glossy, 
light green foliage, and an abundance of fragrant blooms. 
ECLIPSE (Nicolas) $1.50 
This is unquestionably one of the best all-purpose yellow 
roses. The elegant streamlined buds are borne on long,
