Mission Bells 
Mission Bells (Plant Patent No. 923) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) Mission Bells is a deep, 
glowing salmon opening to a brilliant clear shrimp-pink. The flow- 
ers are full centered and when fully open measure as much as 51/4 
inches across. It is unusually vigorous and free branching, producing 
flowers in abundance. This variety will do well for all Rose growers 
and surely deserves the award it was given. 
Sutter’s Gold (Plant Patent No. 885) 
Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
(Winner All-America Rose Selections, 1950.) The most outstanding 
feature of Sutter’s Gold is its beautiful, long, pointed, yellow bud richly 
shaded with coppery red. When fully open it is a superb yellow Rose 
with coppery veins through its flower petals. It is an unusually strong 
grower, free branching and exceedingly free blooming for a yellow 
Rose. The fragrance is excellent, foliage very good; all in all a fine 
addition to the selection of yellow Roses. 
Texas Centennial Each $1.35, Three $3.75, Doz. $13.50 
A sport of Pres. Hoover, having the same wonderful qualities. The 
color is blood-red to cerise-red in the center. 
Sleigh Bells (Plant Patent No. 1004) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
The large, ovoid buds are borne singly on exceedingly long stems, and 
are produced so freely that you can gather quantities for the table. 
The flowers open gradually into blooms of great size, with 40 or more 
petals of heavy substance, and are lovely in all stages. A trace of 
primrose at the base of the petals adds life to the flower. Unusual for 
white Roses, the stems are clothed with thick leathery, glossy foliage 
that is exceptionally disease resistant. Best of all, this white Rose is 
really fragrant. Sleigh Bells is the better white Rose you have been 
looking for.

Nocturne (Plant Pat. No. 713) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
(All-America Selection for 1946.) This new red Rose has one of the 
longest, most perfect, streamlined buds displayed by any Rose of its 
color. The color is bright cardinal-red with dark, deep intriguing 
shadings of chrysanthemum-crimson. The large petals have good 
substance, are richly textured, and there are plenty of them so that 
the flower lasts a long time. In hot weather the color becomes some- 
what lighter. The blooms of NOCTURNE are pleasantly fragrant, 
although not approaching Mirandy in this respect. The stems are 
long, the foliage large, abundant and semi-glossy.

Show Girl (Plant Patent No. 646) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
“The Rose with Magnificent Buds.’’ If you want to enjoy the most 
beautiful, the most perfect, and the longest deep pink Rosebuds you 
can imagine, be sure to plant this variety. The sensational buds are 
deep pink, almost carmine in the spring, opening to a softer tone but 
always deep pink. We think it is one of the finest pink Roses of all 
for cutting because of the magnificence of the buds and the lasting 
quality of the flower with its big heavy textured petals. Tall, rather 
slender, with big heavy canes and plenty of lovely flowers borne on 
long, sturdy stems.
