Pointed buds and glowing, brilliant carmine, medium-sized flowers, shaded with blood-red, borne one to three on a stem. Growth strong and erect, foliage dark green and not liable to mildew. A very well-formed flower of the Laurent Carle type but not so large. It is extremely fragrant with the rich scent of old-time Roses. The color is best in cool weather. We feel that it is a splendid variety; but only test in the amateur’s garden will prove us right or wrong. $2.50 each.
