8570 A. V FOR VICTORY. Large, 
very double perfect, clear yellow 
roses with a lovely fragrance. Con- 
tinues to bloom throughout hottest, 
dryest summers without any fading 
in coloring. To many experts, no 
other rose has such long lasting 
loveliness. One famous garden ex- 
pert, on a sweltering July day, 
found Sub-Zero roses of this type 
not only in bloom, but putting out 
new branches from the leaf buds— 
with the temperature reaching 96 
degrees and no rain for the previ- 
ous five weeks. This variety de- 
serves a place in your garden.

8366 A. DELIGHTFUL. Variable colors on

flower—sometimes a_ glistening yellow 
ochre—all splashed and sketched with

Blooms abundantly even in hottest, driest 
weather. 
8382 A. RED DUCHESS. Here's one of our 
favorites which we predict will be one of 
yours if you try it. Just imagine! Large well- 
formed bushes, literally covered with lovely 
iridescent rosy red flowers. PLUS the fact 
that this is the most fragrant variety of Sub- 
Zero Rose. 
Unlike other roses which are usually at 
their peak the first year, Stern’s Sub-Zero 
Roses, being bred back to the hardy, 
vigorous Rose Wichuriana, increase in size 
and beauty with each year, reaching their 
peak during the fourth or fifth season and 
will continue their spectacular display for 
a lifetime. 
Since Sub-Zero Roses do increase in size 
year after year, it is advisable to plant them 
further apart than regular hybrid teas. At 
least 3 ft. is best.
