FLORIBUNDA ROSES 
The term “Floribunda” is comparatively new, and is used to designate 
bush Roses producing clusters of blooms without interruption from early 
April till heavy frost. They were formerly called ‘bedding Roses’ and are 
used for mass color effect, although most varieties are lovely in certain cut- 
flower arrangements. 
The Floribundas we grow are thrifty varieties, even to the most dwarf 
kinds. More of these charming Roses should be grown in beds and borders.

CLIMBING ROSES

In our Southland, climbing Roses are lovely for many uses. They may be 
planted on arbor, trellis, fence, tied to poles or set on embankments. The 
Hybrid Wichuraianas (HW) are rambler type Roses producing a great pro- 
fusion of bloom in the spring and sometimes repeating to some extent in the 
fall. The Noisettes (N), the Climbmg Teas (CT), and the Climbmg Hybrid 
Teas (CHT) bloom intermittently from early spring till cold weather. Some 
of the latter, like Cl. Talisman and Cl. Luxembourg, because of great vitality, 
are used in preference to the bush form of these Roses. 
Since many nurseries produce too few climbing Roses, we are growing 
them rather extensively, in an effort to give a better assortment of Rose 
varieties to gardens of the Southeast. We include some of the finest older 
varieties that have become scarce.
