Hybrid Tea. (Meyer.) This utterly lovely 
*pink rose puts on a great show. Even 
one plant is a spectacle, and several together 
steal the scene. 
Masses of urn-shaped, rich pink buds burst 
into large blooms edged with a deep satiny 
blush. Sometimes light gold tones 
wash over the open bloom, while 
the outside of the petals is an 
even pink. Flowers are beauti- 
fully high centered, opening to : 
a diameter of 4 inches and 
more, with plenty of petals 
rolled back to form a delicate 
silhouette. Delicious tea fra- 
rance envelops the bloom. 
Cutting stems of 
medium length on a 
tall, robust plant. 
Very vigorous, producing quantities of flow- 
ers all season. Perfect to cut. Hardy and prac- 
tically disease-free. Delicious perfume. A 
“carefree” rose. 
Mrs. S. A. M. of Missouri writes us these 
words of praise: “Portrait was always full of 
lovely pink flowers—once there were 17 at 
one time—and a lot more buds yet to open.”

open well even in unfavorable weather. 
Moderately tall, upright and strong. Foliage is glossy green, darker 
on the underside. 
King’s Ransom has established itself in the select group of fine 
yellow roses. Recommended for every garden. Plant Pat. 2103.

dusky maroon petals, shaded even darker. Beautifully shaped, long 
lasting, and with a mysterious air that lends special allure.
