 varieties. The flowers are held erect and tliey keep well when cut.

EDITH NELLIE PERKINS 



In this magnificent Rose we have a distinct color effect very diffi- 

 cult to describe. The outside of the petals is cream and blush .shaded 

 with orange at the base; the inner face is salmon-pink with golden- 

 orange at the base. The flowers are moderately double, produced on 

 long stems and sweetly scented. Owing to its free blooming habit, it 

 must rank as one of the best garden Rcses yet raised.
