LAVENDER PINOCCHIO—"’A Color Remembered out of a Dream.” 
MARYTJE CAZANT. (Mar-ee-ty Ka-sa(n)) or just Mary,” if you say so. 
Bears profusely in large clusters of unfading coral-pink, globular, waxy 
blossoms, whose color does not conflict with the soft-pinks. One of the 
medium growers, especially fine for edging .. . happy in all environ- 
ments. Is a great favorite for long-lasting, dainty corsages and miniature 
arrangements. Another which has a quality in roses we like to call 
“personality.” SB. 1OFes.O0., edch. 35 
MASQUERADE. Floribunda. Patent 975. ARS 85%. 36 inches. 
If I had to play the game of naming ‘'six favorites” in the Floribunda class, 
certainly the catalog-writer would include Masquerade, out of all the 
varieties listed herein. Two of my fellow-sufferers (the catalog-writers) 
have called it, ‘The Chamelon of Roses” and "Joseph's Coat.” I'll add 
my bit—originator '’Gene Boerner’s Raman Holiday.” 
Flower is semi-double, about 2% inches, starts yellow in bud and in first 
opening, then proceeds to dance thru a series of pinks, rose-pinks and dark 
reds—never the same, always entertaining. 
Comes a high compliment from a leading English authority, N. P. Har- 
vey, writing in the NRS Annual—"No praise would be too high for Masquerade, 
the first really multicolored Floribunda.” And St. Claire Garwood of Xenia, 
Ohio, has one of his apt comments—"My friends have renamed Masquerade— 
we now call it ‘Wizard of Abs.’ ” 3 for 5:25. each, 2.00 
MRS. JOSEPH HIESS. Poly. ARS 84%. 2 feet. 
Roy Shepherd, with this one, has made a real contribution to the large 
family of Floribundas. The 2 inch, double, clear-pink blooms of H.T. form 
come profusely all season, and hold their color in summer heat. Has a 
special individuality about it, which we like. 3-for 4.00 each 1.50
