Double type; rather small; midseason. Undulated guards of creamy pink illumined by a striking collar of yellow stamens over which develops a ragged, irregular crown of narrow petals mixed with long stamens; faintly fragrant. Medium height; extremely floriferous; strong stems. Compact, bunched foliage; odor strong and disagreeable. Not of first-class form, but a cheerful, apple-blossom color overspread with yellow, and the plant is desirable for garden decoration.
