Tree Roses For lending the garden a touch of formality, few plants can equal the colorful tree roses. Standard, or tree-shaped roses are grown by budding the desired variety into a tall straight stalk at a height of 36 inches. The bushy head usually produces more flow- ers and larger ones than the bush type of the same variety. Shipped Bare Roof at Our Expense During the months of January, February, and March, dormant, bare root tree roses may be safely shipped for immediate plant- ing to Pacific Coast areas, warmer sections of the Southern States, and portions of the East Coast. Tree roses ordered during that period can be held in cold storage for delivery to colder sections at later planting time. We do not recommend them for sub- zero climates unless proper winter protection can be given. Prices on all bare root, dormant Tree Roses, $4.50 each, $40.00 per 10. Ten assorted Tree Roses sold at the 10-rate. Charlotte Armstrong Long, blood-red buds and brilliant cerise flowers of astonishing size and beauty. Our finest rose. Christopher Stone Glowing, brilliant crimson-scarlet with deep, dusky shadings. Countess Vandal Salmon-pink shaded copper and gold. Vigorous and consistent. Debonair Beautiful, richly colored yellow buds against a background of glossy foliage. Eclipse Great quantities of long streamlined yellow buds. Forty-niner New 1949 All-America with contrasting petals of brilliant scarlet and yellow. See page 9. Heart's Desire Magnificent long red buds, extremely fragrant. Horace McFarland Orange-pink buds and fine big flowers of apricot-pink. K. A. Victoria Lovely buds and full high-centered flowers of snowy white. Mirandy Glowing, dark red buds and many-petaled flowers with a wealth of perfume. Magnificent warm weather rose. Mrs. E. P. Thorn Fragrant buds of clear shining canary-yellow. Nocturne New 1948 AARS Winner with amazing streamlined buds and glorious flowers of cardinal-red, with darker shades. Peace Huge, yet perfectly formed and delicately colored flowers of yel- low, pink, and cream. Picture Sparkling, warm pink buds and open flowers in great profusion. Miniature Tree Roses Here is something new and unusual for your garden. These many-flowered Floribundas, budded on 24-inch stalks, make splendid and unique all-season displays in your garden. They can be used to border your rose garden or as specimens. These little half standards can also be used as potted or tub plants for your patio or outdoor living room. As far as we know, you will find these distinctive little tree roses only at Armstrong Nurseries. $4.50 each, $40.00 per 10.
