 Rose." It is a wonderful rose, and one which we think will become very 

 popular because of its wonderful freedom of bloom and fascinating color.

 charming. In the bud it is coral-red shaded with yellow at the base, the 

 open flowers coral-red shaded with yellow and bright rosy-scarlet, passing 

 to shrimp-red; flowers of medium size, well formed and not too full. A

 green foliage.
