 Stripe is a deep dusky-pink with stripes and streaks at 

 random in off-white and Hght pink running through 

 the inside of the petals. A sport of Pink Peace, this 

 rose produces great quantities of big colorful blooms. 

 The solid but well-pointed buds open to 6-inch blooms 

 containing 60 to 65 gaily striped petals. The plant 

 itself is quite tall, standing strongly upright, and has 

 fine growing ability. The foliage is very striking, 

 medium green with lighter green ribbing and covers 

 the sturdy canes right up to the base of the flower. 

 Clandy Stripe is more than a good rose ... its beauty 

 is uniquely different.
