FP lor ibunda Roses (Large-flowered Polyanthas ) 
RACTICALLY all of the varieties under this heading may be considered 
in the comparatively new classification called Floribunda, used to refer 
to bush Roses producing clusters of blooms without interruption from 
early summer until late frosts. Some of them were formerly referred to as 
‘‘bedding Roses” for mass color effect rather than for specimen blooms. 
They are all truly everblooming Roses. 
As a class they are extremely hardy, more so than many of the Hybrid 
Teas. They are all less subject to black-spot and mildew and require com- 
paratively little care, although, as with all Roses, the more care they re- 
ceive, the better results are achieved in the way of more abundant bloom.

Small-flowered Polyantha Roses 
Alll of these Roses are 85 cts. each, unless otherwise noted, 
less quantity discount on page 8 
HE individual flowers in this class are 
smaller, though very often the clusters are 
as large as Floribundas; heights in general 
are lower so these make good edging plants or 
low mass plantings. All Polyanthas are as nearly 
everblooming as Roses can be. They live and 
bloom year after year with comparatively little 
attention. 
Planting Distance: Average 15 inches. 
Height: Average 15 to 18 inches. 
Pruning: Prune lightly to desired height, removing 
old cluster-heads and thin out dead wood.
