SOUVENIR de CLAUDIUS PERNET— A new, clear yellow 

 Rose which has made a tremendous sensation because of its 

 practically unfading color and excellent habit of growth. The 

 outer petals sometimes bleach a trifle, but the flower is sun-flower 

 yellow until it drops. Bloom is of large size, and in its early 

 stages almost perfectly formed. (Cut early to avoid unsightly 

 center.) Foliage is extraordinarily dark, glossy, and fairly 

 resistant to disease. Growth vigorous and very thorny. Souv.
