FLORIBUNDA and IMPROVED POLYANTHA ROSES 
This type of Rose becomes more popular each succeeding year. Medium in height, practically disease resistant and 
flowering the entire season, they retain their vivid colors even in the hottest weather. To add color to your Evergreen 
plantings, intersperse a few Floribundas among them. For best results plant 18 inches apart either in a solid bed or 
among other plantings where color is desired. They will give the grower pleasure for many years. 
Price: $1.50 each, $15.00 per dozen 
Baby Chateau—A new color amongst the large 
flowering Polyanthas. The flowers are large, semi- 
double produced in large clusters, velvety dark red in 
color, reminding somewhat of the popular Rose Chateau 
de Clos Vougeot. Dark, shiny foliage, a real acquisi- 
tion. 
Betty Prior (Patent 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 
Cheerie—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. 
Donald Prior (Patent 377)—Flowers semi-double, 
cupshape, bright scarlet, flushed crimson; much larger 
than “Else Poulsen.” Fragrant; foliage dark green; 
very free flowering. One of the most striking colors of 
the entire group. 
Else Poulsen — Bright rose-pink single flowers of 
large size. One of our finest large-flowering Polyanthas, 
since it is a very husky grower attaining a height of 
about 3 feet. 
Goldiloeks (Patent 672)—The golden yellow Flori- 
bunda buds resemble miniature Hybrid Teas in form 
and are a rich golden yellow in color. When fully 
open, flowers average 314 inches across. Dark green 
glossy foliage, a nice background for the very hand- 
some flowers. Height of plant about 21% to 3 feet. 
Improved Lafayette — Very profuse flowering, 
strong growing Polyantha. Crimson scarlet in the bud, 
expanding to rosy cerise when fully open. Individual 
flowers about the size of Paul Scarlet Climber. 
Pink Bountiful (Patent 601)—A petite relative of 
a Hybrid Tea Rose, splendid for miniature arrange- 
ments, the ovoid buds are tinted deep reddish pink, 
enfolding into flowers with a buff, salmon-pink heart, 
flushed deeper pink on the outer petals, clear rich 
pink when fully open. A variety that is extremely easy 
to grow and a most prolific bloomer. An entirely new 
blood strain that is proving very popular as a cut 
flower.
