(Plant Patent No. 586 
Longest-Blooming Hardy Yellow Climber 
So shimmering, so regal, so glorious are the lovely, large Hybrid-Tea-like blooms of King Midas 
that in fancy one can almost see the mythical Persian King touch each red-flushed bud, trans- 
forming it and all it touches into living, limpid, yellow gold. Truly, this blessing of cheer- 
giving yellow that almost completely covers the plant for from three to six weeks will bring a 
» blaze of golden glory to pillar, porch, pergola, trellis, fence, or brighten a corner of the yard, 
~ house or garage.

Hybrid-Tea-like flowers, in clusters of four to six. Another creation of Dr. Nicolas and our own
