really regal in exquisite form, from the long, tapering bud to full- 
petaled, opening bloom. Buds are cadmium-yellow at the base which 
gradually shades to shrimp-pink at the edges of the petals. As the large, 
beautifully modeled, exhibition blooms unfold, the inside of the outer 
petals is an artistic China-pink, which deepens toward the center of the 
flower to shining coppery rose. The reverse of the petals is cadmium- 
yellow lightly veiled with pink.

for cut flowers for it keeps when well cut. This hardy Rose will provide 
you with quantities of bloom every year for years to come.
