Blue Roses 



Few types of experiment appeal more strongly to Mr. 

 Burbank than those directed toward the bringing oat of some 

 obscure quality or submerged trait of a flower, such, for example, as 

 an unfamiliar or unusual color. No one needs to be told 

 that a blue rose is an anomaly. The color photo- 

 graph shows Mr. Burbank's success in caiu- 

 ing the rose to take on this un- 

 familiar color.
