(The Christmas Rose)

pear untouched. 
The color is white, suffused with pink, and if 
sheltered in a glass cold frame they will turn 
almost pure white; on stems from 6 to 12 inches 
in length, flowers from 2 to 3 inches across. Extra 
strong clumps, $10.00 for 10. Delivered in Sep¬ 
tember and October.
