*TAPIS ROSE. Plant Pat. 960. (Meilland.) Our 

 newest Floribimda from the originator of Peace. 

 It is pink, usually a deep, soft Tyrian-rose, though 

 the shade varies at times. Its blooms tend to hold 

 a primly perfect, rounded form that is charming 

 and rather quaint. The great quantities of blooms 

 it produces inspired its French name, which means 

 "Pink Carpet." Plants are vigorous, growing about 

 3 feet high. A gem for corsages and for the garden. 

 $1.50 ea. ; 3 or more, $1.30 ea.

THAT BLOOM IN QUANTITY 



It is the habit of Floribunda Roses to bloom long and 

 freely. The three new ones on this page are outstanding 

 in that respect, even among Floribundas, often giving 

 more than 30 blooms and buds to a single spray. For 

 quantity of bright, pretty bloom in your garden all 

 summer and fall, there are no plants to equal Floribunda 

 Roses. 



^ALAIN. (Meilland.) Bright, even carmine-red 

 buds and blooms in huge clusters, well distributed 

 over densely branching plants. The semi-double 

 flowers have more petals than older red kinds and 

 open prettily to show gleaming yellow centers. 

 Blooms are long lasting and hold their color to the 

 end. Thick fohage on strong stems and husky 23^9- 

 foot plants. $1.35 ea. ; 3 or more, $1.15 ea. 



•POULSEN'S BEDDER 



That this is the best new pink Floribunda yet, is the 

 consensus of widespread opinion, after thorough pre- 

 introduction testing by many competent judges all 

 over the country. It is a real beauty. The great 

 masses of big, lightly ruffled blooms are a clear, rich, 

 clean pink, from bud to fully open blooms. The open 

 flowers get lighter as they age, but they always keep 

 that appealing look of bright, gay, young freshness, 

 never greyed or dingy-looking. They are also wonder- 

 fully long lasting, even in midsummer heat. 



The hardy plants are strong, upright and even in 

 growth, about 3 feet tall and highly resistant to 

 disease. Best of all is their constant quantity of that 

 bright, fresh, showy bloom in big sprays all season 

 long. A single plant will make a big splash in your 

 garden; a group or hedge of them would be terrific. 

 $2 ea.; 3 or more, $1.75 ea.
