MARY BRAND. (Brand, 1907.) 8.7.
Rose type; large; midseason. Dark, clear crimson, with a very brilliant sheen, with a few yellow stamens buried in the collar; notably fragrant for a red variety. Medium height; very free-flowering; strong stems. Good foliage.
A very good red variety similar to Karl Rosenfield, bat not so bright as either that variety or Longfellow. Has an excellent incurved ball form, with overlapping, crinkled, and fringed petals. Good for both exhibition and garden decoration.
