gEDDEST of All Floribundas! 
Inderendenc 
Gold Medal at Portland 
(Right) The brilliant orange-scarlet color of Independence is 
so vivid that words or color illustrations just cannot do it 
justice. Borne in clusters of 6 or more, its vivid color is 
superbly accented by its rich glossy foliage. This new va- 
tiety grows from 2!% to 3 ft. in height, producing great 
quantities of foliage and forming a very compact bush. In- 
dependence does not fade or lose its color in the sun and 
possesses a moderate old-fashioned Tea Rose fragrance. 
This beautiful Rose actually produces blooms up to 4 in. 
across—teally huge for a Floribunda. This new color is 
definitely one of the most scintillating hues we have ever 
seen. Very aptly named because its striking color reminds 
one of the valor of the battle for freedom. A truly lovely 
Rose. One that will enhance your garden for years. (Pl. 
Pat. #1036.)
