AMETHYST. (Rambler.) (1911.) 12 feet. 
Clean, disease resistant foliage on a plant which may be used as a 
climber or back-ground shrub. The great trusses of small, very double 
blooms are in rich tones of amethyst—nearer to being a true “blue rose” 
than the more advertised Veilchenblau. Blooms in the spring only, but 
then graces the garden with its shiny foliage on long arching branches.

ARRILLAGA. H. Perpetual. (1929.) 4-5 feet. 
This is a giant among pink roses, with Mrs. John Laing and Frau K. 
Druschki in its parentage. Bears in great, all-season profusion, fat buds, 
singly on long stems... so “fat’’ in bad weather, they may have difficulty 
in opening to perfection. Not recommended for the foggy seashore— 
elsewhere hard to beat. 310r ozo each 2.00 
AUSTRIAN COPPER. Brier. (1596.) 4-5 feet. 
Says Louise Beebe Wilder in 1916: “The Austrian Copper is a true brier, bear- 
ing its wonderful burnished blossoms, vermilion on the upper side and yellow 
on the lower surface in lavish profusion; it is the most brilliantly striking rose 
of my acquaintance.” It gives but once each season, but that once is splendid 
indeed! Grows big. . . dislikes pruning. 
“The fanfare announcing the opening of the rose season,” says Hortense Wild,

AUTUMN DELIGHT. Hybrid Musk. (1933.) 6 - 8 feet. 
We are indebted to the famous English old-rese authority, Mr. G. S. 
Thomas, for our start of this beautiful shrub rose, which ‘delights’ us not 
only in autumn but in spring and summer also... a steady and profuse 
succession of creamy-yellow buds opening to almost single large white 
flowers with red stamens. The foliage is dark and glossy . . . appears 
resistant to all pests and diseases. Among our most outstanding new 
varieties. IPAS 
BANKSIA. (R. Banksiae.) 20 - 30 feet. 
While we do not grow enough to justify the catalogue space required, we 
cannot resist quoting the delightful Dean Hole, whenever in such good 
form—‘Would that Burns had gazed and written upon the lovely little “Banksian 
Rose.” He would not have esteemed the wee modest daisy one iota the less—he 
was too true a florist for that—but he would have painted for us in musical words 
a charming portrait of this button-hole Venus, this petite mignonne, which, singly 
would make a glorious bouquet for Queen Mab’s coachman or engroupe, a charming 
wreath for a doll’s wedding ...The Yellow and White varieties—the latter 
having a sweet perfume, as though it had just returned from a visit to the violet 
—should be in every collection of Mural roses.” 
Please specify your color choice. White at 2.00, yellow at 2.25 
BARONNE PREVOST. H. Perpetual. (1852.) 4 - 5 feet. (Pray-voe.) 
Very husky, erect, vigorous plants producing profusely, double blooms in 
deep rose-pink, especially pretty in bud form—sweet, delicate fragrance. 
Among the best in our Hybrid Perpetual collection. 3 for 4.50 each 1.75
