Introduced in 1926. Full rose type, large midseason. Delicate flesh pink, heavily shot with deeper pink, the whole developing into a beautiful uniform self pink. Stem vigorous, rigid and carries the bloom in regal form. Name suggested by many admirers of the flower at The National Show in Fort Wayne, 1926, when it was granted recognition by the Seedling Committee judges.
