MRS. FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT 
1934 Introduction of V. R. DePetris 
An incurved variety of extremely large size and wonderful substance. In color it is a 
beautiful shade of Souvenir de Claudius Pernet yellow, shading to deep gold toward center. 
It matures about November 10 to 15. The plant is a tall, vigorous grower, and for this 
reason crown-buds should be reserved about August 25, to avoid tall stems.
