BRANDYWINE (ss: 5" 
The Rose of the Patriots

banks of the historic Brandywine, soil made hallowed by the sac- 
rifice of our soldiers of the Revolution. The handsome large 
pointed buds are the answer to a flower arranger’s prayer, lovely 
for all kinds of bouquets, also exquisite in boutonniere or corsage.

4 ft., blooming heartily right through till late fall. Ina delightful
