THE MRS. 
FRANKLIN D. 
ROOSEVELT 
ROSE 
“sport” of the great Talisman. In shape, the new 
rose resembles its parent. Instead of a color medley, 
it presents a chalice of purest gold suffused on the 
outside with a slight blush of delicate apricot. 
The plant is remarkable for the perfection of 
blooms produced. It promises to be a persistent 
bloomer. The fragrance is a faint perfume. 
This new rose was christened after its famous 
namesake in Mrs. Roosevelt’s private office in the 
Prudence Building, New York City, on Dec. 10th, 
1932. A huge bouquet of golden beauties was pre¬ 
sented to Mrs. Roosevelt by Mr. Stephen Reynolds. 
This new variety is now being propagated. A lim¬ 
ited number of field-grown plants will be available 
this coming autumn. 
Watch for our further announcements. 
Stephen Reynolds presents a big bouquet of Roses named in her honor 
to Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, at her private office in Neiv York City.
