Floribunda AND IMPROVED POLYANTHA ROSES 
Floribunda Roses are proving very popular in practically all sections of the country. Medium in height and disease 
resistant. Flowering practically the entire season and retaining their vivid colors even in the very hottest Summer 
weather. Ideal for planting in front of evergreens, if one wishes to add color. Plant 18 inches apart for best effect. 
Planted in solid beds, they are a pleasure for many weeks and many years. 
Price: $1.25 each, $12.00 per dozen 
Baby Chateau (Kordes, 1936) — A new color 
amongst the large flowering Polyanthas. The flowers 
are large, semi-double produced in large clusters, vel- 
vety dark red in color, reminding somewhat of the 
popular Rose Chateau de Clos Vougeot. Dark, shiny 
foliage, a real acquisition. 
Betty Prior (Plant Patent No. 340)—Improved form 
of Else Poulsen. Outside of petals dark carmine, inside 
several shades lighter. Borne in large clusters on strong 
stems, very fragrant. Foliage pale green, tinted purple; 
very vigorous grower. Resistant to mildew and diseases. 
Cheerio—Clear Mallow-pink shading to a deeper Rose 
at the base of the petal. Reverse of the petal is a lumi- 
nous Rose madder that is most effective. Quantities of 
brilliant double flowers in massive clusters.

—Flowers  semi- 
double, cupshape, 
bright scarlet, 
flushed crimson; 
much larger than 
“Else Poulsen.”

dark green; very 
free flowering. 
One of the most 
striking colors of 
the entire group. 
Else Poulsen— 
— Bright rose- 
pink single flow- 
ers of large size. 
One of our finest 
large - flowering 
Polyanthas, since

grower attaining a 
height of about 3 
Kirsten Poulsen—Large single light red flowers 
produced in large sprays. Tall, shrubby grower. Ideal 
for mass effect. 
Mrs. Van Nes—Large flowers Polyantha of clear 
cochineal carmine produced in sprays, throughout the 
season. 
Pinoeehio (Patent No. 84 J & P)—Bright salmon- 
pink in color, creating a sensation wherever shown. 
Exquisite in form and size. Slightly larger than “Mrs. 
Finch” but an attractive deeper pink, flushed salmon. 
Excellent variety where a miniature is desired. 
Red Velvet—The most magnificent red Rose that it 
has ever been our privilege to see, it is such a vivid 
rich crimson color. The flowers look like pieces of bril- 
liant red velvet scattered around, and it is the type of 
Rose that will attract your attention the instant you 
enter the garden where it is growing. Vigorous grower 
and very free flowering.
