weg Pat. 730. Deep apricot-colored buds open rich 
LAS buff-salmon, which changes slowly to a pleasing 
coral-pink. Buds open slowly and tend to come in con- 
stant succession, each one a gem. The flowers are large, 
with 40 to 45 petals that are also large, firm and long 
lasting. Strong stems hold the long, tapered buds firmly 
upright, well above the leathery foliage, making it an 
excellent variety for cutting. Flowers spicily fragrant. 
Rather Iow, upright, compact plants. A “front-row” 
Rose, unsurpassed for beautiful exhibition form and 
glorious color. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $4.

to the renowned Radiance and the beautiful blooms
