Cheerio 
Four Large Flowering Polyantha 
Floribunda Roses 
Cheerio 
(Kordes, 1940.) Superb in every respect—a Rose of 
outstanding merit whether used for mass planting in 
beds or borders or to give an individual accent here or 
there in the garden. You will be most favorably im- 
pressed by the super-abundance of the brilliant double 
flowers borne in massive yet gracefully arranged flower 
clusters. The flower petals are clear mallow pink shad- 
ing to tyrian rose at the base with the reverse or out- 
side a luminous rose-madder that creates an effective 
color balance. 
Pink Jewel 
(Ixordes, 1940.) A jewel indeed—Arbutus pink shading 
to deep Camellia rose in the center of the densely double 
large blooms. The grace and artistic arrangement of 
the magnificent large flower clusters makes it a peer 
among the bedding Roses. The plants are simply covered 
with substantial flowers. The beauty of the flowers is 
enhanced by a graceful wave along the petal edges. 
Red Velvet 
(Kordes, 1940.) A spectacular bedding Rose covered 
with great masses of urn-shaped buds opening to well- 
rounded blooms with gracefully waved petal edges. The 
general color effect is that of an intensely vivid crimson 
lake. The velvety finish of the flowers adds to the 
beauty and richness of the color. The outside of the 
flower petals is deep carmine creating a charming color 
contrast that heightens the effectiveness of the display. 
Vigorous and free blooming. 
Sunmist 
(Kordes, 1940.) Graceful, pointed buds opening into 
large, fluffy, well-rounded flowers of a clear light sulphur 
yellow shading to mellow canary yellow toward the base 
of the petals. Forms imposing large flower clusters. 
An outstanding bedding Rose that gives a glorious effect 
particularly if massed in beds or borders. 
Any of the above: $70.00 per 100.
