FLORIBUNDA ROSES 
This is a new classification of roses. By it we refer to the 
large flowering types of Polyantha or baby roses. A separate 
listing is not made of these, but they will be found designated 
through our main listings. Great progress, during the last few 
years, has been accomplished with this class of roses. They now 
range through all shades of color and all styles of bloom similar 
to our hybrid teas. They bloom steadily throughout the season 
without interruption, making them suitable for many types of 
border and mass plantings. Architects and landscape men are 
delighted with them. The demand is increasing everywhere. Try 
them in your garden. They are the hardiest, most prolific and 
easiest to use of all roses. 
POLYANTHA OR “BABY” ROSES 
The hardiest, most prolific, requiring the least care of all roses. 
Plant them in groups throughout the garden. They are suitable 
for low hedges, borders, or for mass planting. They flower con- 
tinually from spring until fall.
