<—eax Applause 
Plant Pat. Applied For 
The new rose, Applause, is an- 
other descendant of that fa- 
mous variety, Charlotte Arm- 
strong. It is a rose which is 
going to make its way in the 
world on its own merit. The 
big fragrant buds are a spark- 
ling, dazzling light red in col- 
or. The perfectly shaped 50- 
petaled open blooms are 
heavy with fragrance. And one 
feature that will put this va- 
riety over in any rose garden 
is the enormous quantity of 
blooms which it carries.
