straight and strong yet not clumsy; monster blooms of glistening bronzy 
buff and salmon shades. Jane Cowl is held on the stem just as it should 
be—'looking at you and slightly up. The flowers are immense, of the full 
petaled decorative type, with just enough twist to the broad petals to add 
the touch of refinement. It has been called the world’s “most perfect

twist .......
