Website/Catalog (1917) Page(s) 6. This new rose combines the good qualities of the ramblers, to which class it belongs, with the charm and beauty of the wild roses. The flowers are a delicate pink, shading to white at the stamens. The blooms are borne in large clusters, as many as seventy-five single specimens have been found in one cluster. The flowers remain in good condition for almost three weeks - a great advantage over some of the ramblers. When in full bloom a plant resembles a huge bouquet of pink roses. The growth of the plant is remarkably vigorous, the shoots soon covering an arch or trellis with a dense mass of ivy-like, dark green foliage that resists attacks of mildew and insects.
The plants are perfectly hardy, and can be put in the most exposed places with an assurance of flowers. Strong plants $1 each, $10 per dozen; extra-strong plants, $1.50 each
