PEACE. (Pat. 591) 
Each $2.00, 3 for $5.00, doz. $20.00 
(All-America Rose Selections Award, 1946.) One of 
(GV ine best and most beautiful of roses. It is a vigorous, 
ANRS » calthy grower with shining dark green foliage. It 
has a dawn-like range of colors through which it passes, from 
opening yellow buds, with edges picoteed cerise, to the glo- 
rious alabaster blooms, each petal edged with pink that seems 
to deepen as the flower slowly opens. The shades of color 
vary, too, from flower to flower and through the changing 
season. Though the bloom is large and long lasting and con- 
stantly fresh looking, its effect is always delicate and lovely. 
The flowers are borne singly on heavy stems, strong and 
straight. They last a long time and are produced all season in 
endless succession. The petals are large and gradually open 
a few at a time around a high-pointed center, to a superior 
bloom. See illustration on page 4.

There just are not adequate adjectives nor color plates good 
enough to do justice to the perfect pink buds and flowers of

undertones so cheerful and glowing. Each flower is heavily 
petaled, substantial and long lasting, and the strong, vigor- 
ous plants produce continuously.
