W. A. MANDA, INC., SOUTH ORANGE, N. J. 
Gardenia (Manda). 
(Wichuraiana x Perle des Jardins.) 
Strong- grower, with large green foliage. Flowers produced singly on stems % to 1 
foot long. When in bud, hardly distinguishable from Perle, bright yellow, and when open 
cream color, 3 to 3% inches in diameter, incurving toward evening to perfect imitation of 
Gardenia as to shape and color, hence its name. Flowers are delightfully fragrant and 
produce freely. A grand rose for any purpose.
