HORTULANUS BUDDE—That deep fiery red. 
HORTULANUS BUDDE. 2 - 3 feet. 
One of those big, lush, deep fiery-red roses, with rare fragrance, far too 
good to be elbowed out of most rose catalogues, by less worthy new- 
comers. And besides, a name like that, has the right to survive! 
“Hortulanus Budde was my greatest surprise . . . magnificent! Like a light 
shining thru deep red velvet.’ Thelma Bloomstrand, Cincinnati, Ohio.

HELEN TRAUBEL. Patent 1028. ARS 84% Tall. 
Another of Charlotte Armstrong's progeny was the All-America winner 
of 1952, and won the Roman Gold Medal in 1951. Inherited the long- 
pointed bud which has made Charlotte famous, also the tall vigorous 
growth, and long cutting stems. Just the right petallage to open well in 
coast districts where its pink and apricot shadings are at their best. Here 
in our field, Helen Traubel stood the mid-summer sun better than most. 
All-America winners have to be good under all conditions.

HIGH NOON. Patent 704. 10 feet. 
Absent with us in catalog 1954, but far too good to be omitted. Not a ramp- 
ant climber, but a striking pillar rose to ten feet, for all but sub-zero 
climates. 
The clear, unfading yellow, double blooms ‘sing of sunshine,” from 
spring to frost. Makes a super bouquet. , 2.50 
Spring is the natural frame of mind of heaven; 
Autumn is one of its changing moods.
