Show. 1949 Gold Medal Winner, Bagatelle Competition, Paris. An entirely 
new color for your garden. Definitely the finest Floribunda Rose ever 
created. Fashion far outshines all others with its gay new, exquisite color

around performance. Thrcughout the entire Rose season the warm, 
Oriental rose-red buds appear freely, gradually opening to their 
sparkling new coral-pink suffused with gold color.

flowers are always in production. The blooms last well under all 
conditions and make an outstanding display in floral arrangements as 
well as an everlasting glory in the garden. Enchanting, delicate fra- 
grance and a rich display of golden yellow stamens add interest and 
promise to the full blown blossoms. This enchanting color blends well 
with any of its garden neighbors, creating a new, exciting center of 
interest. Handsome as a group planting in front of evergreens or 
shrubs. Delightful as a small informal hedge or planted at intervals 
along a Rose walk. With its large, 3'’2-inch blossoms it will hold its 
own with any of the older favorites, even blending well in the beds 
of Hybrid Teas. 
In test gardens all over the country, experts have been unanimous
