LA REINE VICTORIA—"If I could have but one—" 
LAY REINE VICTORIA.” Botirbon. “(1872.) "6"= 7 teer 
So enthused is ‘‘Hon. Secretary’’ about this rose, I insist she alone, 
shall describe it—"The very spirit of the roses painted by Prevost! Cupped, 
rosy-pink—shading to deeper rose on the outer petals. Intensely fragrant 
and long lasting, either on the plant or as a cut flower. Blooms from early 
spring through the fall. If I could have but one of the old-fashioned roses, 
La Reine would be my choice.” 2.00 
“Suggestive of lavender and old lace.” —Dr. McFaRLAND
