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, inter- 
sperse 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, except where noted 
Betty Prior (Potent 340)—lmproved 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. 
Crimson Rosette—A brilliant deep red Polyantha Rose, that is con- 
stantly in bloom throughout the season, beautifully placed on long 
stems suitable for cut flower work. A delightful splash of color in 
your garden may be had all season, if Crimson Rosette is planted. 
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. 
Fashion (Patent 789)—One of the finest Fioribunda Roses introduced 
to date. Color a luminous coral pink overlaid with gold, which holds 
the color throughout the entire season regardless of weather condi- 
tions. The pointed buds of oriental red when first appearing, open 
to a lovely miniature Hybrid Tea with a typical Rose fragrance. 
Plant attains a height of about three feet with excellent foliage and 
is most prolific in bloom. The only Floribunda to obtain the All 
American Award for 1950. Price: $2.00 each, $20.00 per dozen. 
Goldilocks (Patent 672)—The golden yellow Floribunda buds resemble 
miniature Hybrid Teas in form and are a rich golden yellow in color. 
When fully open, flowers average 3Y% inches across. Dark green 
glossy foliage, a nice background for the very handsome flowers. 
Height of plant about 2% to 3 feet. 
Pink Bountiful (Patent 60])—A petite relative of a Hybrid Tea Rose, 
splendid for miniature arrangements, the ovoid buds are tinted deep 
reddish pink, unfolding 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. 
Pink Gruss An Aachen—Light flesh pink flowers shading to salmon, 
and then to creamy white, as the flowers age. In type very much 
like a Hybrid Tea, but an unusual bedding Rose always in flower 
the entire season, and an excellent variety for edging a Rose or 
Perennial border or garden. 
Pink Rosette—The pink form of the ‘'‘Crimson Rosette’’ growing in 
exactly the same way, beautifully spaced on the stems and lovely 
for floral arrangement in the house. Color is a bright charming pink 
with individual flowers about the size of a fifty cent piece when fully 
opened. Lasts a long time as a cut flower. 
Pinkie (Patent 712)—The 1948 American Rose Society winner is a small 
Rose of dainty charm and artistic appeal to any Rose grower. A 
new and entirely different Floribunda type, bushy plants 15 to 20 
inches high, carrying throughout the entire blooming season a great 
profusion of slender pink buds and a perfection of form never seen 
in a Floribunda before. Buds open to fully double flowers about 2"' 
across, and a light green foliage forms a perfect background for 
the large rounded clusters of spicily fragrant blooms. 

Fashion 
Pinocchio (Potent 484)—Bright salmon-pink in color, creating a sensa- 
tion wherever shown. Exquisite in form and size. Slightly larger than 
‘'Mrs. Finch’' but an attractive deeper pink, flushed salmon. Ex- 
cellent variety where a miniature is desired. 
Snowbank (Patent 279)—Large flowering blush white clusters of blooms 
are outstanding to use in a mass planting. The individual flowers 
are about 3 to 4 inches across borne in great clusters all season. 
Plant attains a height of about 18 inches when fully developed. The 
thick healthy foliage is a fine background for the sparkling blooms 
it produces the entire season. 
World’s Fair (Patent 362)—Ideal bushy plants just about hide them- 
selves under clusters of large, velvety blooms of blackish scarlet, 
the fragrant petals surrounding a glowing mass of golden stamens.
