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. 
CHATTER. (Patent No. 739)—The unfading 
bright crimson 214” to 3” blooms completely 
cover the 18” plants for two to three weeks. 
Unequalled for the mass of color they pro-

Plants very hardy and resistant to disease. 
Each $1.40; 3 for $3.85. 
GOLDILOCKS. (Patent No. 672)—The only 
true golden yellow Floribunda. The buds are 
ovoid, resembling miniature Hybrid Teas in 
form, and rich golden yellow in color. Flow- 
ers are cupped in the early stages and grad- 
ually open to 31% inches across. The firm 
petals number 45 on most buds. Dense, 
spreading growth to 21% feet. 
Each $1.50; 3 for $4.20. 
PINOCCHIO. (Patent No. 484)—The pointed 
salmon buds flushed with gold at the base

roses. Always in bloom with hundreds of

the Northeastern states, we offer only 2 year No. 1 grade Northern grown stock. 
The following list contains outstanding representatives of the hundreds of varieties

whether we may substitute varieties 
of similar color for the ones you have 
ordered.
