China Doll blooms like this most of the time. 
A Low-Growing Pink 
China Doll 
We counted the flowers on several normal plants 
of China Doll and the average number was 240! 
The rounded clusters of one- to two-inch flowers so 
cover the plant that you cannot see the foliage, and 
as one burst goes by another comes on. The color 
is a bright cheerful pink which ages well, and the 
old flowers drop off cleanly. The plant is very 
dwarf (about 18 inches here in California) , almost 
thornless and with its glossy mildew-resistant fo- 
liage is perfect for a low hedge or border. A glance 
at the picture above will show you what we mean.

A Tall-Growing Red 
Carrousel 
The large double flowers could easily class this 
rose as one of the new grandifloras, but the blooms 
appear in clusters and it blooms so freely and over 
so long a season that we list it among the Flori- 
bundas. From early to late it is literally a mass of 
glowing, deep rich red flowers come rain, cool 
weather, or a downright hot spell. One of the most 
dependable of all rose polls, the American Rose 
Society’s “Proof of the Pudding,” has consistently 
rated this striking new red rose among the highest. 
The plant is tall-growing, rather upright, well- 
foliaged and mildew resistant. Plant Pat. No. 1066. 
$2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.75 each; 
25 or more, $1.60 each.

A Low-Growing Red 
Valentine 
One of the brightest Floribundas you'll find is this 
Armstrong introduction with its flowers of glowing 
trafic signal red. Appearing in huge clusters, the 
21-inch flowers cover the plant and as one burst 
of bloom goes by another quickly follows in rapid 
succession. Eventually the color does fade, but not 
until each burst of bloom has given you several 
weeks of the most brilliant garden color you can 
imagine. This is one of the desirable low-growing 
kinds so popular for hedge, border, or foreground 
planting (it reaches about 2 feet in Western 
gardens). Plant Pat. No. 1029. 
$1.75 each; 3 or more, $1.55 each; 
25 or more, $1.40 each. 
Summer Snow 
When loaded with snow-white bloom, and it 
usually is, this Floribunda will resemble an im- 
maculate snowbank in your garden. Often there are 
15 or more buds to a cluster and the countless 
clusters are continuously unfolding new flowers. 
The plant (about 2 feet tall in milder areas) is 
well covered with light green foliage, but that is 
incidental because the plant is usually hidden by 
flowers. Ideal for planting singly, excellent for 
massing, and perfect for a white hedge or border. 
Plant Pat. No. 416. 
$1.50 each; 3 or more, $1.30 each; 
25 or more, $1.20 each. 
The rates shown for 3 or more and 25 or more plants 
apply on a single variety only. Varieties may not be 
grouped to take advantage of quantity rates.
