*Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria 
this superb Rose, which 
for over 40 years has 
been considered one of the best white varieties for form 
and also for fragrance. The plants are moderate in 
growth. Its blooms come erect on firm stems and as the 
petals are heavy textured this Rose 1s remarkable for its 
keeping qualities when cut. It has just a touch of lemon- 
color in the center, which we think adds to its beauty.
