Hloribunda Roses 
of Roses. A distinctive feature is the long-lastingness of the flowers in all bee 
| 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. 

Hill’s Hillbilly (Plant Patent Appied 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.
