“THE BEST IN ROSES" 21 
Floribunda Roses 
This classification of roses includes those that were 
formerly listed as hybrid teas and hybrid polyanthas. 
They comprise the large flowering polyanthas and 
the low, compact growing hybrid teas. They are se- 
lected for their hardiness and their continual bloom- 
ing qualities. There is a definite place in the garden for 
these roses, such as mass plantings along driveways, 
walks, etc. Floribundas come in a wide range of colors 
and are fast becoming popular as they produce a mass 
color effect over a long period of time. 
CECILE BRUNNER (Polyantha) 3 .60 
The sweetheart rose. Buds small, beautifully formed. 
Flowers light pink with yellow at the base of the 
petals. A continuous bloomer and fragrant. 
GARTENDIREKTOR OTTO LINNE 
(Lambert 1934) $% .60 
Distinctly different from other polyanthas. The plant 
sends up long new canes 2 to 3 ft., blooming first 
in large clusters on top, then sending out side 
branches, which bloom on down nearly to _ the 
ground. Color dark carmine pink. Foliage abundant, 
glossy and practically free of mildew. 
ORANGE TRIUMPH (Kordes 1937) $ .75 
While we like this rose very much, we do believe it 
it misnamed in that it is far more red than orange, 
although there is an orange cast in the red. The 
small semi-double roses ar eborne in large clusters 
on strong stems throughout the season. The heavy 
green foliage is fairly free of disease. Growth about 
three feet. 
PINK GRUSS AN AACHEN  .75 
A very double salmon pink floribunda. Flowers about 
three inches in diameter; slightly fragrant. Blooms 
all season. Plant is low and bushy with fine disease 
resistant foliage. 
PINOCCHIO (Kordes 1941) 
$1.25; 3 for $3.15* 
Here is one of the loveliest Floribunda roses we 
know of. The small, well formed buds of salmon 
pink open to very double flat blooms of a deeper 
shade than in the buds. A very prolific bloomer. 
Flowers are borne in large clusters on a low growing 
plant of 1% to 2 ft. with nice dark green foliage. 
Plant patent No. 484. 
ROSENELFE (Kordes 1937) $ 75 
Rosenelfe is a new large flowering polyantha of deep 
pink with fine form. Excellent as a boutonnier 
rose. A vigorous upright grower; profuse bloomer.
