Outstanding Floribunda Roses 
Floribunda is the name given to a new class of roses developed from the old Polyantha class. They 
make a compact shrubby growth, bloom over most of the growing season and produce single to double 
flowers in large clusters. They are vigorous, easy to grow, and may be used in mass plantings, among 
evergreens and shrubs in foundation plantings or in beds and borders. They hold up very well as 
cut flowers.

true golden yellow Floribunda. The buds are

are cupped in the early stages and gradually 
open to 3% inches across. The firm petals 
number 45 on most buds. Dense, spreading 
growth to 2% feet. Each $1.60; 3 for $4.50.

BEGONIAS 
GIANT CAMELLIA-FLOWERED TYPE. No one who has successfully grown these showy flowers 
is ever without a planting of them. The fact that they do best in a partially shaded place recom- 
mends their use especially to city gardeners who have the problem of shade. Give them fairly 
rich soil a reasonable amount of moisture and protection from strong winds and you will be re- 
warded with glorious color until frost. 
Ideal for shady window boxes. Since they are not hardy, they should not be planted outdoors 
until all danger of frost is past. 
If the plants are brought into a cool cellar in the fall and dried off gradually, the bulbs can be 
planted out the following spring. 
Colors: White, Pink, Salmon, Yellow, Orange, Red and Mixed Colors. (Our selection 
from the 6 colors listed.) 
PRICE: 3 for $1.10; 12 for $ 
3.50; 100 for $26.00 (25 at 100 rate). Postpaid.
