Of its Color it need only be said that it is a clear, rich pink,changing to silvery rose. It is a strong, healthygrower, absolutely free from disease ; bloomsboth constantly and profusely ; is hardy withordinary protection. It is the queen ofall pink garden Roses. ■ As we see it, one good Rose likeMaman Cochet is worth a whole collec-tion of poor ones—at any price.
