Floribunda Roses or Cluster Roses are,a group of Roses especially 
produced for mass planting. They are noted for their permanence, con- 
tinuity of bloom, and ease of culture. Their habit of growth is bushy, 
and their chief characteristic is sturdiness. The plants are winter- 
hardy, therefore permanent, and bloom continuously in numerous 
clusters. Flowers are fairly large, vary from single to full double,

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 pleasantly surprised by the 
super-abundance of the brilliant double flowers borne in massive yet 
cracefully arranged flower clusters. The flower petals are clear mallow- 
pink shading to Tyrian rose at the base with the reverse or outside a 
luminous rose-madder that creates an effective color balance.
