Single type; large; midseason. Long, smooth white petals, powdered thickly with tiny rose-pink dots, giving a pale pink effect; small cluster of yellow stamens in center; carpels crimson; slightly fragrant. Vigorous; very floriferous; strong stems. Good foliage. Interesting because of the color but its general appearance is not unusual. It is generally known as KELWAY’S WILD ROSE.
