Periodical "The National Nurseryman," vol. 7, 1899, p. 84, avers that "The rose number of the Gardeners' Magazine, London, issued July 8th, contained several appropriate articles and was accompanied by a colored plate of the handsome new rose Sunrise, introduced by G.W. Piper, of Uckfield." I can't seem to track down this 1899 issue of the Gardeners' Magazine, nor its colored plate. Can anyone else find it?

Sunrise, is a beautiful "gain" of Mr. Piper's, of Uckfield; it is a brilliant orange-yellow flower, with the back of the petals rosy-pink, of excellent form, and very free-flowering. It was shown in fine condition at the Royal Horticultural Society's meeting on May 2.
