Star Everblooming Floribundas are a very satisfactory 

 kind of flower, giving you loads and loads of colorful blooms 

 all during the season. Blooms are smaller than those of 

 the Hybrid Tea, but they come more plentifully and pro- 

 vide masses of color. They are perfect for low hedges, or 

 for massed plantings where you want to create high color 

 effects. Of course, anywhere you put them you will have 

 rose beauty and the most unusual colors. Look at Polka, 

 for example . . . isn't this new rose one of the most de- 

 lightful you ever saw?
