That delicate pure pink shade, found 
only in the choicest Cattleya Orchids, 
has at last been reproduced in the new 
“Queen Elizabeth’ Rose. All-America

and new type as well, for this charming 
new ruler of rosedom is the first of a 
new class of ‘“‘Grandiflora’’ Roses. The 
: unusually clear, * glowing blooms of 
< Queen Ejizabeth are a blending of soft 
> carmine-rose and dawn-pink set off by 
fy deep green foliage.

Its exceptional vigor 
insures a_ healthier, more luxuriant 
blooming all season long. Queen Eliza- 
beth flowers are borne on long, almost 
thornless stems and because one of the 
All-America Parents is a Floribunda (Floradora) and 
Award Winner the other a Hybrid Tea (Charlotte Arm- 
for 1955 strong) the blooms are carried both

All-America Award winner 
for 1955. A new Floribunda 
with tangerine-red buds 
which open to coral-orange 
or vermilion and finish a 
pink-coral almost like Fash- 
ion. The unusual coloring 
is a result of a crossing of 
Geranium Red and Goldi- 
locks, the color has blended 
and softened the red to a 
very lovely new coral-rose 
shade. The color is inter- 
esting as it never blues or 
becomes unpleasant — and 
the Rose is intriguing 
whether in the garden or 
used as a cut flower in the 
house.

Each $2.00, Three $5.25, 
Doz. $21.00 
The flowers are a dark, velvety 
crimson in graceful clusters which 
have aptly been called ‘florists’ 
spray”’ Roses. The foliage repre- 
sents a marked advance in Rose 
breeding, being almost immune to 
attacks of mildew. Many clusters 
of blooms with long stems and 
long lasting qualities are produced 
from spring through fall. You will 
find the Rose ‘Connie Mack”? to 
be one of the choice Flori- 
bunda Roses. The sturdi- 
ness and vigor of this va- 
riety makes it a superb gar- 
den plant as well as one of 
the best for cutting.
