FLORIBUNDA 
This new classification, the Floribunda Roses, was originally classed 
ftnder the Polyanthas but they are quite distinct because they have 
larger blossoms, They are advanced hybrids of the Polyanthas and 
bloom equally as much, usually in large clusters and like them give 
a mass effect.
