| Sloribunda Roses 
jof Roses. A distinctive feature is the long-lastingness of the flowers in all 
weathers. They are best planted closely—about 14 inches apart—in large 
groups and masses, in beds, so they will blanket the ground. Groups of three 
or five of a variety placed in front of the shrub border create a superb color 
display. They are more effective and just as colorful as tender annuals. 
Glorious. (See page 91.) 
Hill’s Hillbilly (Plant Patent Applied For) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
All the charm and grace of the Wild Rose is reflected in this lovely, 
single pink Floribunda or Polyantha Hybrid of Hill’s. Stiff flower stems 
carry big, open heads of medium sized blooms. Petals are thick and 
stiff, gracefully rolled outward, forming beautiful pink satiny cups. One 
stem with its head of flowers makes a bouquet in itself and needs no 
further arrangement. Flowers last a week or more when cut. The plant 
continues blooming from June until frost. You'll love Hill’s Hillbilly for 
cutting as well as garden decoration.

Pink Rosette (Plant Patent Applied For) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.09 
Pink Rosette definitely links together the glamor and beauty of the 
present with the style and charm of the past. The open sprays bearing 
many pure peach-pink buds consisting of fifty shell-like petals or more, 
unfold to open flowers of perfect proportion and form, yet for all of 
its up-to-the-minute newness, there is about the Rose that indefinable 
quality that connects PINK ROSETTE with the quaint style, primness and 
beauty of Colonial charm. The plants are extra strong in growh. The 
deep green foliage is excellent. One crop of flowers is followed by 
another. The Rose lasts for days when cut. Combine all these attributes 
with the loveliness contained in PINK ROSETTE—what more could be 
asked! 
Rosenelfe Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00

the best in this group. 
White Finch Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00 
Same height and habit of growth as Mrs. R. M. Finch. The fine clus- 
ters of flowers are pure white. They are especially valuable for con- 
trasts such as in combination with Baby Chateau or Cheerio. Very free 
flowering and good grower.
