luscious, delicate blending of peach, cream, buff, salmon, apricot and pink in a beautifully

VELVET MANTLE (Mrs. Fred H. Clutton) Midseason-Late. 48 Inches. (Cheerio x E. B. Wil- 
liamson) Soft but warm red bi-color. Standards remain closed. Falls semi-flaring, velvety 
and devoid of haft markings. Good size, three or four branches. Color according to 
Dictionary of Color: Standards: Ambrosia (plate 6); Falls: Peony Red (Plate 7.) Here is 
a red with an unusual quality in that it harmonizes with almost every color in the garden: 
Yellows, blues, whites, blends and pinks. We feel it is going to be a very important parent 
in the red class for it has height, branching and a smooth quality without the purple seen 
in many so-called reds. | have used it extensively in my work with reds the past two years.
