Introduced by 
THE CONARD-PyLE CO., 
West Grove, Pa. 
The Duke of Windsor expressed 
it when he said of Peace, "Really, 
I have never seen such a marvelous 
Rose in my life." There has never 
been another Rose anything like it. 
Peace can best be appreciated and 
enjoyed where you can watch its 
buds unfold — see with your own 
eyes how its color changes as it 
slowly, slowly unfolds. Its tints of 
yellow, pale gold, cream and ivory 
show a varying blush of pink on the 
petal edges, the clear colors blended 
to rare beauty. Peace plants are as 
outstanding as the blooms; long, 
straight, magnificently strong stems 
with handsome, rich green foliage. 
Peace is a Rose to plant in quantity. 
A bed of them is a sight never to be 
forgotten. (See front cover.) $2 ea. ; 
3 for $5.

1947: Queen of the Rose Shows! 
Peace won 30 highest honors in

your own delight and to show your visitors, as well as for 
exhibition.
