FLORIBUNDA ROSES 
Generally speaking this group of roses are small flowered, but like the Azalea, there 
are a lot of them. The popular Cecile Brunner is one extreme while Red Ripples and 
Floradora are more showy because the flowers are in good size clusters. Beds of Flori- 
bundas are very bright and showy. The dwarfer ones make fine borders for the rose 
garden, or plant in groups of three or more to enliven the shrubbery. Ideal for flower 
arrangements and bouquets. 
BETTY PRIOR (Pat. 340). In the early 
spring, the single blooms resemble the flow- 
ers of a red-flowering dogwood tree, and are 
produced in great clusters. Blooms continu- 
ously throughout the season, opening a lively 
red color, and turning to delicate shell-pink 
as the flowers age. $1.50 each, bare root. 
CECILE BRUNNER. Most popular and best 
known of the baby roses. Small pink buds 
open to double flowers. Bright pink with a 
touch of yellow at the base of petals. Con- 
tinuous bloomer. $1.50 each, bare root. 
FLORADORA. The scarlet-red coloring of 
this neat flowered floribunda has attracted 
lots of attention. The tiny buds open to ca- 
mellia-like double blooms. We like this one

dance. 3 ft. $2.25 each, bare root.
