LILIBET AiR at ant 209 meme mee cer eee 2-3 ft. Small $2.00 
All America Winner for 1954. Exquisite in its dble. 
delicate, almost fragile appearance of light 
rose coloring, melting into a sort of dawn 
pink. These clusters of small roses, well 
formed, covering a beautifully clothed bush 
of dense foliage, makes it most desirable 
for either single plantings or for hedge. 
Lilibet, with its continuous blooming period 
of priceless beauty, grace of plant, dainti- 
ness of color, strength of bush and resist- 
ance to mildew and blackspot are a few of 
its queenly qualities which rate it high 
among the Floribunda roses. The garden 
will be glorified with this rose.
