The NEW Floribundas 



A grand new family has been added to Genus Rosa. 

 "We call them the "Floribundas." It is a good name, 

 denoting "abundant bloomers." In this class are 

 coming varieties distinctly better than the best we've 

 had heretofore. 



Hybridizers in colder northern Europe have been 

 seeking for years to supply a real need among them, 

 and us, for a Rose combining qualities of ( 1) blooms as 

 perfectly formed as Hybrid Teas; (2) as free in bloom 

 as Polyanthas; and (3), as sturdy, hardy and disease- 

 resistant as Rugosas. Wonderful progress has been made, and 

 the perfect flower on this type is just around the corner. 



What we can already offer is a grand addition, because these 

 leaders of a new race provide abundant bloom from June till 

 frost. Here at last is the chance to make beds of soUd color for 

 the season through. Arrange them in border beds or along drives 

 and pathways, in front of your shrubbery or the taller perennial 

 border, and in groups around the lawn. 



In the following four columns we offer first, Floribundas. Fol- 

 lowing them are groups with characteristics not so clearly defined. 

 For example, there are the Aachens which may be thought of as 

 Hybrid-Tea-Polyanthas, followed by three Tea-form ^Polyanthas, 

 with quite double, well-formed, medium-sized flowers, and last 

 of all are the smaller-flowered cluster type we call Polyanthas. 

 All bloom profusely and continuously and deserve a place in 

 your garden.
