 immense clusters; it is as free blooming as any Rose in 

 our collection. The color is creamy white, slightly tinged

 lovely flowers. The flowers are superbly beautiful, and 

 come in great abundance ; they are large, finely formed, 

 free and double. The color is creamy white, clouded

 fine Rose, particularly in the open ground. 20 cts. 

 each.
