ductions. Color, old rose and old gold. The

Cameo—Introduced in 1933 by Fisher & Masson, 
on the Honor Roll the previous fall, it oc¬ 
cupied a prominent place in our gold medal 
display at A Century of Progress. Cameo 
makes a medium to tall plant with dark 
green insect-resisting foliage. According to 
Ridgeway’s chart it is a true coral rose with 
a golden sheen on face of petals and rose on 
reverse. Stems are good. Petals are broad 
and the flower is more formal than informal 
in appearance. In our garden, it fully sus¬ 
tained the originator’s claims. $7.50.

slight suffusion of lavender. $1.00.
