DEUCE. Its beautiful soft, yet lively color, a 
glowing rose-pink, together with its perfect shape, 
stout, stiff stems which hold the flowers well above 
the foliage, and the fact that when cut it retains

makes this one of the most valuable for cutting, 
and one of the most decorative sorts in the garden.
