i GD, C€ The Most Beautiful Rose of the Century 
(U. S. Plant Patent No. 591) 
This Rose is almost unbelievable. One marvel of it is the dawnlike range large-scale way. The flowers are borne singly on heavy stems so strong 
of colors through which it passes, from opening yellow buds, each petal and straight. It needs no disbudding to produce exhibition blooms which 
| edged with pink that seems to deepen as the flower slowly opens. The hold their form and freshness longer than other Hybrid Teas. The flowers 
, shades of color vary, too, from flower to flower and through the changing 
seasons. Though the bloom is unusually large, long lasting and constantly 
fresh locking, its effect is always delicate and lovely. The individual petals 
are long and of great substance, gradually opening, a few at a time, 
around a high-pointed center, to a great, golden hearted, very double, 
last a long time and they are produced all season in endless succession, 
through various stages of opening and changing colors: canary-yellow, pale 
geld, cream, ivory and alabaster; edged cerise, rose or apple-blossom-pink. 
M. Meilland, the hybridizer, has given the world many beautiful Roses, yet 
of this he says: “This is a rare discovery and only takes place once in the 
| 
| fully open flower. The plant is as superior as the bloom, and in the same career of an originator.”
