Walsh's Summer Joy, 1911
Another addition to my new seedling Rambler class, and unquestionably a beauty. The variety is hardy and distinct in color, form and growth.
The clusters of bloom are double, and borne on strong shoots eighteen to twenty inches long. When in full blossom they droop gracefully, closely resembling a plume.
The buds are pure white, gradually developing to dark rose color. The pleasing combination of white buds and dark rose blossoms, together with the large, glossy foliage, presents a scene of splendor which may best be described as a Summer joy in the garden. It is a grand Rose of great merit and will surely take front rank in my collection of Ramblers. Price, $2.00 each.
