WHAT ARE FLORIBUNDAS? 
Floribundas are an entirely different and dis- 
tinct group of Roses. They are extremely hardy, 
doing well under the most adverse conditions. 
They are the most prolific of bloomers. Flori- 
bundas start blooming very early in June in mid- 
western areas and continue to produce con- 
stantly until freezing weather. In this respect 
they resemble the Polyanthas; however, their 
blooms are more like the Hybrid Teas in form. 
Size of flowers depends cn variety but many of 
them are almost as large as those of regular 
Hybrid Teas. They grow vigorously with canes 
from 20 to 30 inches in height, according to 
variety. Floribundas are one of the best plants 
we know of for bedding and for borders. Their 
foliage is attractive and not easily subject to 
diseases, and their constant blooming habit 
makes them desirable wherever a long and color- 
ful flowering season is needed.
