A Rose of entirely new color—SYMPHONY 
(Plant Patent No. 79) 
Refreshing indeed is the soft flesh pink tone, deepening 
to Venetian pink at the center of this marvellous rose of huge 
size and substance. The flowers average five inches in diam¬ 
eter under good garden and weather conditions and the form of 
the bloom is perfect, resembling that of Frau Karl Druschki, 
which is one of its parents. The flower has ample petallage 
which are full and rounded, appearing cut from the finest silk 
of soft pink glow. The buds are of great length and are pro¬ 
duced on extremely long, straight shoots. The plant is vigor¬ 
ous and upright, with rich, dark green leathery foliage. While 
in habit and formation Symphony resembles its parent plant, 
it blooms throughout the season. So magnificent are the blooms 
in perfect condition that a single flower alone is a sensation 
and a bouquet of the long stemmed beauties is priceless. One 
authority says about Symphony—“Undoubtedly this is one of 
the finest exhibition roses in commerce today”.
