Mrs Henry Balfour (H.T.)  Colour-ivory white, deepening to primrose shading towards the base. The edge of each petal is beautifully and distinctly pencilled vermilion rose like a picotee; quite the most distinct of Hybrid Teas and perfection in shape and form, of wonderful texture and substance. It is a splendid grower, extraordinary free blooming, holding its flowers perfectly upright. Equally good for exhibition, garden and bedding, and sweet scented; a really superb variety. Awarded the Gold Medal of the Irish Rose and Floral Society.
