The Hybrid Teas are resting—a little tired from their orgie 
of spring blooming, and only here and there a flower strives 
to catch your attention. But not the Polys! Their early blooms 
have barely faded yet right behind comes another round 
of color—buds breaking in great profusion just below the 
old flowers. That over-used catalog word “ever-blooming”™ 
is really justified here. 
The value of the Polyanthas and Floribundas is too obvious 
to need much comment... borders, beds or color accents, 
they add their gay and sparkling note to any type of garden. 
The large number of varieties described herein, is our 
selection of the finest available—low, medium or tall grow- 
ing... exquisite little rosettes in clusters or larger-flowered 
semi-doubles—in every shade known to rosedom. You have 
only to choose the type, color and growth habit to suit your 
taste and purpose. 
What we say about them will be factual, except for an 
occasional customer comment. Much valuable information 
is included from the annual national ratings of the American 
Rose Society, to whom both you and we should be grateful. 
Having nothing of our own creation to offer, we grow only 
those we like best. All 47 varieties which follow have their 
particular individuality, and are well tested. All are worthy.

BETTY PRIOR. Floribunda. Patent 340. ARS 88%. 3% feet. 
Competes successfully against all newcomers, and its ARS rating of 88% 
continues near the top of the list. The two-toned, deep carmine and pink 
single blossoms cover the plant all season. Abounds in good health and 
needs no coddling in any location. 3 for 4.00. .cach: 1.00 
CAMEO. Polyantha. 1% feet. 
Has been forced out of most rose catalogs by the new, highly-touted pat- 
ents, but remains one of our favorites. The semi-double, small, cupped 
blooms in panicles, are coral touched with gold. Rated second by the 
National Rose Society of England, and we consider one of the best of the 
low growers. 3 for 8.50" “each= 139
