which is in part responsible for the tremendous amount of flowers produced.

NWeda (U. S. Plant Patent No. 518) 
Color of Flower: The outer petals are a beautiful pale buff-shrimp-pink, 
increasing in intensity to a deeper and richer shading towards the center, 
until a beautiful tone of rose-pink has been reached. The petals are im- 
bricated and artistically formed, resembling dozens of shining seashells, 
shaping the flower into the perfect form of a Hybrid Tea Rose. The flowers 
occur singly or in clusters of three on side laterals which are 10 to 12 inches 
long, a perfect length for cutting. The buds are perfectly formed and open 
into flowers with high centers. The size of the flowers when fully open 
measures 314 to 4 inches across. 
Foliage: Leaves are of leathery texture, deep bottle-green and practically 
immune to black spot, mildew, or other Rose maladies.

gions.
