THE FLORIBUNDA GROUP—Continued 
Another view of the Floribunda section of the J & P New York World’s Fair Garden. Summer 
Snow center, World’s Fair right, Joyous left. 
The Floribunda group of roses represents varieties especially bred for hardiness, sturdiness, 
ease of culture and mass color effects. The habit of growth is of medium height, they are very win¬ 
ter hardy, therefore, permanent, disease resistant, bloom continuously in large clusters and do not 
fade unpleasantly in hot summer suns. 
The clusters are comprised of fairly large flowers often 50 or 60 together in one head. The 
flowers vary in petalage from the singles and semi-singles of the Poulsen type, to the Hybrid Tea 
shaped semi-double flowers of the Rochester type and the full double flowers of the Aachen type. 
The colors include almost the entire range known in the Hybrid Tea field. 
The group does not include any one particular strain but is the result of intensive hybridiz¬ 
ing both here and in Europe, to make available in desirable colors and shapes the arcticness of many 
species and varieties. It represents such hybridizers as Poulsen, Kordes, Prior, Nicolas and others. 
The Floribunda varieties should be planted in groups of three or more of a kind.' Plant them 
among the shrubs for continuous color. Use them as hedges or borders. Mass them by thousands for 
color effect in parks and along roadsides. When planted 15 to 18 inches apart they will shade the 
ground and the flowers will blanket the foliage. In the smaller gardens they also are a continuous 
source of excellent cut flowers for the house. 
Thousands of people who visited our display and test gardens at Newark this year and the 
N. Y. World’s Fair Garden acclaimed the Floribunda roses as a long sought group filling a long felt 
want.
