Las Vegas (Pat. 1486)
America's Most Fabulous Hybrid Tea Rose Symbolizing America's Most Fabulous City
All the Warmth and Glow of a Desert Sunrise for the First Time Captured in a Rose
The Las Vegas, Germain's 1957 rose introductio, is a radiant, warm, salmon-pink with a golden sheen at the base of each petal. The large, long, pointed buds open into high-centered blooms revealing the warm glowing color of the rose. As the blooms further develop, the petals cup and the spectacular color becomes more intense, giving an even deeper radiance to the flower. The blooms, measuring up to 6 inches across, are produced freely on exceptionally long cutting stems. Las Vegas is a truly long lasting cut flower, whose petals have a satiny lustre that imparts a depth and warmth to the bloom, such as that seen in a desert sunrise.
The plants bearing these gorgeous flowers are vigorous and well branched. The foliage covers the plant well, with semi-glossy dark green leaves.
$2.50 each, 3 for $6.60

Germain's Exciting 1956 Rose Introduction
Rose Marie Reid
NEW Dawn Pink Color—NEVER CAPTURED IN A ROSE BEFORE
Rose Marie Reid is an exceptionally tall, vigorous growing Hybrid Tea Rose which bears large quantities of very double flowers.
The beautifully shaped buds—long and full—open to a breathtaking dawn-pink never captured in a rose before. These long lasting flowers measure five to six inches across, and have 45 to 50 petals softly rolled back at the edges to give a rich effect.
Its exquisite blooms are set off majestically by deep green, heavily textured, leathery foliage. The bush has exceptional vigor and remarkable disease resistance, insuring an earlier blooming and a healthier, more luxuriant growth all season long. The blooms make gorgeous cut flowers because of exceptionally long stems.
Rose Marie Reid is another triumph of the gifted Milton Whisler, head of Germain's Rose Research Department. Among former outstanding Whisler creations are Easter Parade, Sun Valley, Candleglow, Amigo, and the climbing San Fernando.
Rose Marie Reid can boast of two of the most illustrious parents in rose history—Charlotte Armstrong and Katherine T. Marshall—both being of All America Vintage.
