PINK PEACE 



Hybrid Tea. (The House of Meil- 

 land.) Plant Pat. 1759. In habit of 

 growth, size and strength of foHage, and general air 

 of command, this fine Hybrid Tea shows its relation- 

 ship to the Peace rose. The plant is very strong and 

 bushy, with large, rather dark, abundant leaves and 

 thick flower stems. Most of the very large blooms are 

 borne one to a stem. Buds are firm and pointed. The 

 color is a beautiful rich pink with a shimmering 

 quality that gives a soft highlight to the flower. The 

 fully double blooms have a high pointed center sur- 

 rounded by large petals of excellent substance and 

 long-lasting ability. Fragrance is strong and pleas- 

 ing. Very vigorous, upright and bushy with good 

 strong canes, this is an excellent choice for the back 

 row or for an accent.

///7///^/>CC Hybrid Tea. (Swim & Weeks.) 

 f'f//f/fOr),) pi^^^ p^^ 2032. Royal indeed 



is this exquisite pastel pink Hybrid Tea with a 

 pronounced tea fragrance that is a surprise to 

 find in such a delicately tinted flower. Buds are very 

 long and pointed, and as they slowly roll open, the 

 5 to 53^2-inch blooms retain this high-centered form. 

 The flowers have 40 to 45 thick, soft petals of such 

 glossiness that you want to toucli them gently to make 

 sure they are real. Look down into the heart of the 

 flowers and you will see a warmer pink coloring. They 

 open well, even in bad weather, and have an un- 

 usually long life. Long, stiff stems bear tlie blooms 

 upright . . . and who can resist them for cutting? 

 They are exquisite in arrangements. The well-round- 

 ed plant is a beautiful ornamental, with rich dark 

 leaves.
