DARK PINK VIRGINIA. A beautiful rose pink sport of Virginia which is identical to Virginia in 
every respect except color. This lively rose shade is proving more popular than the light pink 
of Virginia or the deep pink Ward shades. The color is slightly deeper and more uniform than is 
the case with Pink Treasure or Peter Fisher. If Virginia does well with you, you cannot afford 
to pass up Dark Pink, or Rose Virginia.

keeper. Stems are long and strong, and splitting is very slight.

Love or Ward. It resembles Patrician in form and substance, but has a longer stem and a firmer 
calyx. The blooms are full and rounded with fringed petals. While not as heavy a producer as 
Peter Fisher or Dark Pink Virginia, the flowers are much larger. It is a good keeper, and a prof- 
itable variety.
