E. G. HILL AND CO. WHOLESALE FLORISTS

February, 1900The most gorgeous rose of its class yet introduced. This has made a sensation in England and taken first honors wherever shown. In close bud form it shows the high, brilliant colors, seen only in the austrian-copper, scar let and yellow. As it opens, the color deepens, the scarlet turning darker red, the yellow to orange and copper, the inside of the petal, golden yellow. The open rose is large, perfectly double and of grand form. The foliage is glossy and thick, the new growths being the darkest and most beautiful found among roses. The form and color of bud, its freedom of growth and bloom, will give Sunrise a high place among forcing roses, a novelty is earnestly wished for by cut flower growers, and here is a novelty of the highest quality. Imported plants show great vigor, they recovered quickly from their trip, and responded readily to very ordinary treatment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
