Red Ripples 
Best called a tall Polyantha as it grows about 2145 
feet high. It is not really a Floribunda although it 
might well be planted along with them because height 
and size of plant are about the same as the Flori- 
bundas. It produces immense flower clusters of an in- 
tensely scintillating red, individual flowers are com- 
posed of wavy rippling red petals. The buds are 
daintily molded and perfect for boutonnieres. In our 
test garden this variety and Crimson Rosette were the 
two most brilliant reds and most popular. Red Ripples 
is a prolific bloomer and perfect grower. For fore- 
ground planting in the shrub border you could not 
pick anything more brilliant or colorful.
