A splendid Rose. $1.00 each.

silvery pink on the inner surface of the petals and deep shining 
rose on the outside; intensely fragrant. 
LEONARD BARRON. (J. H. Nicolas, 1931.) Extra-sturdy 
bushes and enormous blooms distinguish this Rose. An infusion 
of Rosa nutkana blood in the parentage has added a strain of 
ruggedness that is unique in Roses. Its blooms, 5 inches or 
more across, have myriads of petals making it one of the 
largest and fullest Roses ever produced. In color it is a blending 
of salmon, buff, and shell-pink, and its fragrance is decidedly 
different—some say red cedar 'and others red raspberry. 
Wonderful bloomer.
