KING BOREAS. (The Brownells, 1940.) Pure 
yellow. Here we have a real yellow Flori- 
bunda Rose, tried and tested for years. With 
its vigorous, healthy plant habits, there is no 
question about its ability to produce dozens of 
blooms at a time, continuously from June to 
November. The individual buds and flowers 
are almost perfect in form, with plenty of 
substance and petalage to make them last 
long either on the plant, as cut-flowers, or as 
boutonnieres. Even the foliage is beautiful 
and almost holly-like. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00.

valuable new variety. Strong, ple: asing fra- 
grance. $1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
PINK SATIN. Introduced by Bobbink & At- 
kins, 1945. Has the color and texture of a

Small-Flowered POLYANTHA ROSES 
Quantity discount of 10% from the each rate on any 50 Roses or more 
The individual flowers in this class are smaller, though very often 
the clusters are as large as Floribundas; heights in general are lower 
so these make good edging plants or low mass plantings. 
anthas are as nearly everblooming as Roses can be. They live and 
bloom year after year with comparatively little attention.
