The most striking Rose has been Golden Glory, a rich buttercup yellow of perfect form, not very full, but with enough petals to make a perfect exhibition bloom; a rich fruity scent; grows well, with good dark green foliage.

I have seen a so-called Golden Glory, a pale lemon of good shape, but not to be compared with the one I have, which I got from Mr. F. Mason, of Feilding.
