*PINK PARFAIT. (Swim.) 

 ^g. Plant Pat. 1904. Some- 

 !i$P thing new and wonderful 

 has been added to our list 

 of Grandiflora roses this fall in 

 the stunning Pink Parfait. 

 Note the lovely blending of soft 

 pastel pink tints, the petite buds, 

 the fine form of the open flow- 

 er. The buds, which are per- 

 fectly formed, range in color 

 from pale dawn-pink to rich 

 apple-blossom-pink. The heart 

 of the opening flower often shows 

 a distinct ivory-pink. The 

 open flower changes with the 

 weather, its color varying 

 through a variety of delicate 

 pink shades to a rich rosy pink 

 at the petal tips. Every flower is a graceful, 

 high-centered bloom with 20 to 25 long-lasting 

 petals. It comes on a fine stem, and provides 

 a pleasant fragrance. In the marvelous 

 Grandiflora way, blooms are produced in 

 enormous quantities, one crop following an- 

 other. The mature plant will often have 100 

 or more buds on it at the same time. Pink 

 Parfait grows vigorously, is neat and com- 

 pact, and has handsome foliage. 

 A splendid new rose! §3.50 ea.;
