(Plant Patent applied for) 
Utterly charming, distinctive in style and form, 
sweetly fragrant and of an alluring, ever-true deep 
rose-pink, this new 1943 Hybrid Tea is as lovely and 
unforgettable as its namesake. A glorious Rose! The 
large pointed buds open slowly to high-centered 
flowers fully 5 in. across, with the outer petals spread- 
ing gracefully and the inner ones unfolding even more 
slowly. Of deep, unfading rose-pink, the outside of 
the petals is clear and shimmering, the inside equally 
clear but satiny, lighted by a brilliant suffusion of 
yellow. The color holds through all seasons. At no 
time does the pink become hard and cold. Exception- 
ally effective as a hot-weather Rose. 
The bush is 
vigorous and firm, with abundant healthy waxy 
foliage. It grows lustily; frequently the long shoots, 
each with a perfect flower, are followed with a can- 
delabra of blooms, five or six to a stem.
