7. SILVER FLESH TO PEARL SALMON PINK CENTER 

 MME LEON PAIN. GUILLOT; 1904. (CAROLINE TESTOUT X 

 Soxrv. DE CATHARINE GUILLOT) 



Hybrid Tea. Of medium to large growth, very hardy; foliage per- 

 fect leathery green to reddish tea; long, erect stem; medium to large 

 bud, opening into a bloom of substance, full, double, and of good 

 lasting qualities; blooms very well in spring, summer and autumn. 

 This is the best of the lightest salmon pinks and a fine, reliable, 

 all-round rose. Mme. Segond Weber is a more brilliant salmon 

 than Mme. Leon Pain and of more perfect form, but not as reliable 

 a bloomer in the summer and autumn. Plant 18 inches center to 

 center. Prune to 5 eyes (buds). 



[The rose at the left is La Detroit, a fair rose but inferior to 

 the newer pinks.]
