E.A. Smith.  Outstanding Colours in Roses.
Again, let me behold a richer colour in any flower than of the beautiful golden red streaks in Sunstar. I have a climber of this variety which at times (and most times, too) is just a riot of glorious colourings. True, it is not an exhibition box variety, but who wants one's garden full of large, heavy, exhibition type Roses? Catch Sunstar halfway between a bud and the full flower and you have the most perfect colouring imaginable.

Everblooming Roses
The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals.
Sunstar. Hybrid Tea. (A. Dickson & Sons, 1921.) The flowers are deep orange and yellow, edged, veined, and splashed crimson and vermilion. Blooms in great profusion continuously throughout the season.
Rosarians of long experience, appreciative of the odd and different, will enjoy this dainty little flower. It is very frail and fleeting. $1.50 each.
