AWRS 

 Fasliion blooms arc bright coral-pcacli, a most amazing color because it is 

 so brilliant and, at the same time, so soft and lovely. There is no other 

 Rose color like it. Add to this the exquisite form of both the bud and open 

 (lower, and you will see why this Rose is being hailed with such enthusiasm. 

 It has won the National Rose Society's Gold Medal in England and the 

 famous Bagatelle Gold Medal in France. 



Scores and comments of the All-America judges gave it high praise, also. 

 The open blooms are about 3 inches across, or larger. Buds open slowly to 

 a wide-open flower with gracefully waved petals and a rich display of golden 

 yellow stamens. Pleasing, old-Rose fragrance. Plants are good and vigorous, 

 bushy, with neat, small, glossy foliage. It reaches a height of 2J2 to 3 feet, 

 with few thorns. We consider it a gem, as it brings a brand-new, enchanting 

 color to Floribunda Roses. $2 ea. ; 3 for $5.
