FLORIBUNDA ROSES, continued 
NEW WORLD. Dark red. Introduced by 
Bobbink & Atkins, 1945. Hybridized by M. R. 
Jacobus,@using the fine old Chateau de Clos 
Vougéot and the newer Crimson Glory as 
parents; the deep velvety red and maroon 
colorings in both combined to give us this 
valuable new variety. Of equal importance is 
the strong pleasing fragrance hitherto lacking 
in most red Floribunda Roses. $1.50 each. 
PINK SATIN. Introduced by Bobbink & 
Atkins, 1945; originated by Dr. Whitman 
Cross. Has the color and texture of a lovely 
pink satin dress. Plants are strong and easy- 
growing. The perfect buds and blooms are 
produced in abundance throughout the seasons. 
No sooner is the first crop of blooms produced 
than the buds for successive ones follow, even 
during hot summer weather. Has proved ex- 
tremely hardy in its testing grounds at the 
New York Botanical Gardens. It is considered 
an excellent bedding Rose, always in bloom 
and therefore classified as a large-flowered 
Floribunda. $1.50 each. 
PINOCCHIO. (J. H. Nicolas, 1940.) Pat. 484. 
Pink suffused with golden salmon. Beautiful 
buds and flowers borne on long sprays; spendid 
for corsages and bouquets. A very prolific 
bloomer from late spring until late fall. Fruity 
fragrance. $1.25 each. 
RED VELVET. (Kordes, 1940.) Vivid crimson, 
semi-double blooms produced in great pro- 
fusion continuously. $1.25 each. 
ROSE ELFE. (Kordes, 1937.) Pink. A very 
double form of Else Poulsen, silvery rose-pink 
in color. Gardenta-like flowers are about 214 
inches across, extremely double, coming freely 
all summer. $1.25 each. 
SALMON SPRAY. (P. Grant, 1923.) Rich 
salmon-pink, reverse of petals carmine. Tall- 
growing; long-stemmed sprays. Makes a 
wonderful 3 to 4-foot colorful hedge. $1.15 ea. 
SUMMER SNOW. (C. H. Perkins, 1939.) 
Pat. 416. Pure white flowers borne in large 
clusters. Very neat: and low-growing and an 
extremely prolific bloomer. Where masses of 
white are needed in the foreground, informally 
or in a straight row, this is the Rose to use. 
$1.25 each. 
WORLD’S FAIR. (Kordes, 1938.) Pat. 362. 
Red. Large clusters of velvety black-scarlet 
flowers, nearly 4 inches 
™, across, with 18 to 20

POLYANTHA ROSES

\ , ] HILE it is not always possible to draw a sharp line when classifying Large- and Small-flowered 
flowers in this class are smaller, though very often the clusters are as large a 
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 comparativ ely 
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, 
CAMEO. (de Ruiter, 1932.) Salmon. A distinct 
shade of shell-pink and salmon, with a glow of 
gold. A compromise between the pink and the 
orange-salmon Roses. Positively one of the 
best in this class. 
CAROL ANN. (A. Kluis, 1940.) Pat. 707. 
Salmon-orange. Globe-shaped flowers in large 
clusters; does not discolor or fade in the hottest 
sun. The plants seldom attain a height of over 
1 foot. Heretofore most of the so-called low- 
growing Polyanthas attained too much height 
when fully matured but here is one that really 
stays low and produces abundant bloom at the 
same time. $1.25 each. 
CECILE BRUNNER. (Vve. Ducher, 1881.) 
Blush. The “Sweetheart Rose.” Small, ex- 
quisitely formed bud and flower of light pink 
with yellow base. The grace and delicacy of 
this Rose is unsurpassed. It is the perfect Rose 
for nosegays and corsages; also splendid for 
borders and massing. $1.50 each. Available 
only in spring. 
CHATILLON ROSE. (Nonin, 1923.) Bright 
pink, semi-double blooms touched with orange. 
Enormous clusters of bloom on nice plants of 
medium height. 
ELLEN POULSEN. (D. T. Poulsen, 1912.) 
Pink. Large, compact clusters borne profusely 
on a dwarf, bushy plant 15 to 18 inches high. 
Large, full, rose-pink flowers. 
MARGO KOSTER. (Koster, 1935.) Light 
orange, slightly flushed pink. The individual 
flowers are globe-shaped like the ranunculus. 
Seldom grows over a foot. Ideal for edging. 
$1.25 each. 
ORANGE TRIUMPH. (Kordes, 1937.) Large, 
double, scarlet-orange flowers in huge clusters, 
combined with good, glossy foliage. 
TRIOMPHE ORLEANAIS. (Peauger, 1912.) 
Bright cherry-red, long-lasting, almost fade- 
less, large flowers borne in clusters. Plant is 
green foliage. It is the finest cherry-red 
Polyantha for border and hedge planting. 
YVONNE RABIER. (Turbat, 1910.) Very 
close to the ideal white Polyantha because of 
excellent bushy habit and bright green, glossy 
foliage; highly disease resistant. 

ORANGE TRIUMPH. $1.15 each

Single Roses (Monthly-blooming Hybrid Teas) 
CECIL. (B. R. Cant, 1926.) Yellow. Large, 
single flowers of buttercup-yellow are produced 
on bushy plants with healthy foliage. Un- 
doubtedly the finest yellow single Rose. 5 
petals. 
DAINTY BESS. (Archer, 1925.) Pink. This 
already old favorite owes its popularity to Its 
delightfully informal appearance, and _ the 
silvery salmon-pink petals, surrounding a 
maroon-colored center, are notched and fluted. 
This variety has an individuality all its own 
that makes it outstanding wherever planted. 
6 petals.

large, flat flowers are of the purest crystalline 
white, and the wine-red stamens tipped with 
gold accentuate the freshness of this vigorous,
