 ance that everybody admires. Splendidly shaped long ovoid buds

 deep salmon pink. A vigorous grower that is always in bloom; 

 one of the best. $1.50 each. 



Mrs. Tom Smith (T. Smith & Sons, 1924). A splendid Gold Medal 

 variety of thorough distinctness and merit. The expanding buds

 deep salmon with a heavy flush of clear fawn, changing with age to deep 

 salmon pink. One of the most beautiful Roses of recent years; sweetly 

 scented. $2.50 each. 



Pink Pearl (Leenders & Co., 1924). A dainty variety destined to become 

 a universal favorite if it had nothing to reco mmend it but its delicious

 the half expanded bloom. The flowers are full double, of perfect form.
