NEW HARDY YELLOW ROSE 
SOLI EL D'OR 
This is a cross between Persian Yellow and 
Antoine Ducher. It retains a good deal of the 
character of Persian Yellow, the bark and wood 
being reddish, the thorns very fine, the foliage 
more ample, and the leaves, of a beautiful clear 
green, arc closer together. This magnificent vari¬ 
ety is perfectly hardy, robust, and vigorous, mak¬ 
ing a growth of about three feet in height. The 
buds are conical-shaped, of a lovely hue, the flower 
when expanded being well incurved. The origin¬ 
ator characterizes this variety as perpetual-flower¬ 
ing, and says that the blooms arc three and a half 
inches in diameter. 
Strong 2-year plants, each, $1.00.
