COLORFUL EDGINGS AND BORDERS WITH FLORIBUNDAS 
Zblogs FLORIBUNDA ROSES 
for Hedges and Borders 
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 Floribundas 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. Make 
fine, low hedges. 
All prices quoted are for bare root stock available December through March. Most 
varieties are also available in cans at all times for 25c per plant higher for gallon can size.
