Vi Large Flowered 
\ Floribunda Roses or Cluster Roses are a group of Roses especially pro- | 
duced for mass planting. They are noted for their permanence, continuity | 
of bloom, and ease of culture. Their habit of growth is bushy, and their 
chief characteristic is sturdiness. The plants are winter-hardy, therefore 
permanent, and bloom continuously in numerous clusters. Flowers are fairly 
large, vary from single to full double, and include the entire range of colors 
Baby Chateau Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
This large-flowered cluster Rose produces semi-double flowers of deepest 
dark velvety red. It is a strong grower and makes a magnificent dis- 
play when planted in solid beds or if used in combination with a white 
cluster Rose. 
Bright Eyes (Patent Applied For) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
A fine new creamy yellow Floribunda. There will be hundreds of Roses 
smiling at you when the clustered yellow buds of Bright Eyes open in a 
profusion of continuous bloom. As the canary-yellow buds expand, the 
color alters in the opening flowers, changing to a shimmering, silvery 
yellow near the outer margins of the petals. At times the silvery tips 
are tinted in a most artistic manner with soft pastels of pink and rose. 
For bordering walks, massing in beds or cutting purposes, BRIGHT EYES, 
under the most rigid rosarian’s rules, will qualify as a fine Rose in 
every detail. 
Cheerio Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00 
Superb in every respect—a Rose of outstanding merit whether used for 
mass planting in beds or borders or to give an individual accent here 
or there in the garden. You will be most pleasantly surprised by the 
super-abundance of the brilliant double flowers borne in massive yet 
gracefully arranged flower clusters. The flower petals are clear mallow- 
pink shading to Tyrian rose at the base with the reverse or outside a 
luminous rose-madder that creates an effective color balance. 
Crown of Jewels (Plant Patent No. 149) Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
One of our favorites because it is one of the finest bedding Roses grown. 
Plants are vigorous and bushy with leathery foliage and clusters of very 
double cup-shaped blooms of lovely coral-rose. Nearly everblooming, 
especially fine in autumn. Marvelous for cutting, lasting longer in water 
than any Rose we know. Plant in masses or in groups in the border or 
Rose garden. Almost thornless. 3 feet high. 
Else Poulsen Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00 
Flowers medium size, semi-double, lasting, bright rose-pink. Continues 
blooming from summer to late fall. Produced by erect growing, very 
thrifty plants. 
Fashion (Piant Patent No. 789) Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
An exquisitely beautiful Floribunda. The color is luminous coral-pink 
overlaid with gold which softens to clear coral and then deepens into 
deeper tinted tones at the finishing stage. Pointed buds are Oriental 
red and slowly open into a lovely miniature-like Hybrid Tea form. The 
open flowers are about 31% inches across and have a delightful old rose 
fragrance. Grows about 214 to 3 feet tall; good foliage and prolific 
blooming. At the National Rose Society's Show in London it received 
the Gold Medal and was the sensation of the Show. No wonder it won 
the All-America Award for 1949. 
Floradora Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
One of the gayest Floribundas. It is spectacular, constantly in bloom 
and an entirely new shade in Roses—a brilliant cinnabar-red, as arrest- 
ing under artificial light as in the garden. No matter where they are, 
Floradora blooms are always the eye catchers. It grows 2Vy to 3 feet tall. 
Glorious. (See page 99.) 
Goldilocks (Plant Patent No. 672) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
The buds are ovoid in shape, resembling miniature Hybrid Teas in form, 
and a rich golden yellow in color. They open slowly and gracefully. The 
flowers are cupped in the early stages and gradually open to 314 inches 
across. They last a long time, as. fresh new buds keep replenishing the 
over-all effect of a golden yellow mass. 21% feet or taller.
