MARDI GRAS (Left) 
A gay red Rose which well depicts the festive spirit of the 
Mardi Gras. 
The bud is very dark red and the flower keeps the full rich 
color. As the bud opens, the high center gradually unfolds and 
as the flower expands the outside petals reach to more than 5 in. 
in diameter, with a deep sparkling red color at the finish. 
The flowers are freely borne and the plant attracts much atten- 
tion. It thrives as well in the hotter climates as in the rest of 
the country, and fills the great need for another red Rose. 
Mardi Gras carries an old-fashioned Damask fragrance well 
fitted to its color. It has an abundance of normal green foliage 
which always has a neat appearance and is a perfect background 
for the flower. (Pl. Pat. #1139.)
