Forty-niner (Plant Patent No. 792) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
This is probably the most brilliantly colored bi-colored Rose ever intro- 
duced. The rich contrasting bright color is its outstanding feature. 
The outside of the petals is rich chrome-yellow, sometimes overlaid 
with pink, changing to straw-yellow in the open bloom. This yellow 
color is most evident in the bud. The inside face of the petals is a 
vivid Orient-red, changing to cherry-red with age. These glowing 
colors contrast so vividly, yet harmonize so beautifully that the bloom 
draws attention and admiration at first glance. The buds are !ong- 
pointed, opening out into unusually well shaped flowers which possess 
a mild, pleasant fragrance. The plant is exceedingly vigorous, tall and 
upright, branching moderately. The stems are long, straight and 
sturdy, with few thorns. (Color illustration, page 82.)
