Light pink... clear rose pink with deeper flecks towards the center. Not the most healthy... scentless... very liable to mildew... tremendous thorns... It is a very slow starter in growth if pruned hard... When presented for the Gold Medal, which was granted by acclamation, it was shown by Mr. Bennett in great quantity, several large boxes of it being staged... It was then sold to America and we had to wait a year for it... A secondary or true autumnal bloom is rare... It is decidedly a hot-season Rose... highly esteemed in America... liable to be killed outright by severe winters...
