placement and habit. It is the yellow we have 
been looking for and will unquestionably prove 
to be the most sensational introduction of recent 
years. Ten to twelve of the twenty-one to twenty- 
three florets are open at once. A deep rich 
golden yellow color with buds as yellow as the 
flower itself. Received highest awards wherever
