*Mrs. Aaron Ward. h.t. 



In the gardens of Mrs. Aaron Ward 

 herself, as a gift from Pernet-Ducher, 

 the originator, appeared the first bed 

 of this beautiful Rose over twenty 

 years ago. Those of us who were 

 privileged to see that close planted 

 mass of Indian yellow buds, golden 

 fawn, semi-open blooms and older 

 flowers dropping creamy pink petals, 

 never forget the magic sight. Time 

 and again elsewhere has such a bed 

 been duplicated and in each place the 

 show is repeated year after year. (See 

 illustration.) The plant is of good 

 form, low-growing, admirably suited 

 to close planting in masses; the foliage, 

 small and close set on the stem, is deep 

 green and shiny; exceedingly healthy 

 and the plant of an unusual hardiness. 

 Does well in any location, but the 

 blooms retain their beauty longer if 

 partially shaded. $1 each; 12 for 

 $10.80; 100 for $80. 25 or more at 

 100 rate.
