Fleritauda Roses 
The Floribundas are delightful roses, rapidly increasing in popularity. They 
are the most truly everblooming of all roses, free flowering, bushy and covered 
with clusters of flowers all summer and fall. Floribundas are used in spot or 
group plantings by themselves and also with Hybrid Teas in the same garden, 
preferably in the foreground or at either side because they are not quite as tall 
as the Hybrid Teas. They should be given light winter protection.

The name “Grandiflora” is a newly announced rose class which features Hybrid 
Tea perfection of bloom, free and continuous flowering and long-stemmed clus- 
ters typical of many Floribunda roses. Grandiflora roses grow taller than Hybrid 
Teas and therefore should be planted in the background of the rose garden or 
against a fence or wall.

Climbing Roses 
Climbing roses create a profusion of red, pink, white or yellow flowers in 
graceful arching sprays. A trellis of some kind is necessary in order that they 
may climb. In planting, follow instructions for Hybrid Tea Roses at bottom of 
page 16. In the fall the canes should be taken from the trellis, laid upon the ground 
and covered with soil, then with a foot of marsh hay and over that a layer of 
waterproof paper to shed moisture. We offer an excellent selection of climbers.
