Full double pink, fading near white in field. Late, and should open well in any climate. Medium height, on stems that are good for cutting, a bit weak in the garden. Cut half open, it is a flower of wondrous beauty, soft, even glowing pink, shading to a deeper pink in the heart of the bloom. In the upper class as regards color, it has been called a sure blooming Milton Hill, though it is a bit lighter. Of irresistible beauty. $10.00
