The Rose That Gardeners Took to Their Hearts! 
This time it’s a sparkling coral-shell-pink. Buds are actually a translucent 
coral, fortified by shades of red in the outer petals and a touch of yellow at 
the base. As the flowers slowly open to their full 314-in. width, the coral 
gradually softens to a glowing coral-shell-pink . . . and the deep red shades 
outside slowly disappear as the yellow becomes more predominant. Finally, 
the entire bloom finishes a softer, warmer shell-pink. Ma Perkins is one of 
the most fragrant Floribundas ever created! A rich, sweet honey scent. It’s 
fragrant, it’s beautiful . . . and extremely hardy, too! No wonder, because 
the parents of Ma Perkins are two of the hardiest varieties in rosedom, 
Red Radiance and Fashion. It is very resistant 
to diseases and pests, and it will thrive in 
difficult positions. The hardy 21% to 3-ft. 
bush is excellent for foundation plantings, 
borders and Rose 
beds. Ma Perkins 
makes a spectacu- 
lar hedge! (Pl.

of the entire garden world!

high-centered, Hybrid-tea-like blooms

blooms for a Floribunda! The color is 
unlike anything you've ever seen. . .

tensive, brilliant cherry-coral.
