AMERICAN-GROWN ROSES
The Rose plants grown by us — listed and described in this catalogue — are
known as two-year-old, low-budded, field-grown plants. And why are they known
as such? Because it takes two full growing seasons for the plants to develop after
the budding process.
We use largely Rosa multiflora for what is known by Rose-growers as the stock.
These plants have been growing in the field, in their permanent place, for several
months previous to budding. The term budding means the insertion of a bud in
the stem of the stock plant, directly above the root-system, or, on account of the
peculiar formation of the plant, it may be said that the eye is really inserted in the
root-system, as the part of the plant below the branches appears to be all roots.
The reason this method of cultivation has been adopted is because few varieties
of Hybrid Teas, Teas, Pernetianas, Hybrid Perpetuals, and some others will grow
satisfactorily on their own roots, and even when certain varieties do make sufficient
roots of their own, they are usually so weak that the plant never becomes strong
enough to produce vigorous growth and perfect flowers.
Despite the fact that our nursery enterprise involves the production of every
good thing that will grow in America, carried on, with the aid of a large body of
skilled propagators and cultivators, over several hundred acres of selected land,
we consider that Rose-production is the heart of the enterprise.
We produce, each year, several hundred thousand Rose plants in hundreds of
varieties, and have constantly more than 60 acres devoted to the cultivation of the
Rose and the stock upon which it is budded, for our Rose-growing work is complete,
not depending on others for the vital root-system which controls the life of every
outdoor Rose.
We present in the following pages our completely revised catalogue, increased
in scope and variety, and made particularly accurate in description and statement.
We have added many illustrations- — more than seventy-five in color — to aid in the
selection of the Roses that will do best anywhere in America.

Isimerican - Grown Rqsgs — Bobbink <f yitkms
Novel features in this catalogue will be found to include designations of Roses
by color, so that it is possible and much more convenient to select on that basis,
and also lists of Roses for special uses.
It is in the interest of satisfaction that we urge our friends to advise us early of
their wants, so that we may more efficiently serve them. With so large an assort-
ment, some varieties are grown in limited numbers.
While we suggest that those who intend to buy our Rose plants make their
own selection of varieties, we offer real advantages to those who will permit us to
select for them twenty-five or more Roses in one order, the only requirement being
a statement of the purpose, the locations to be planted and color preferred.
It is our ambition to provide suitable Roses for every part of America, and we
want those who buy from us to feel that we, too, are interested in making the
American nation the real world-home of the garden Rose, so that the fine motto of
the American Rose Society, “A Rose for every home, a bush for every garden,”
may be realized.
We collect varieties of Roses from all parts of the earth and try them out; our
experimenting and testing are unique and can be seen by visitors to our Nursery.
We lead in having developed an American source of good Roses, and the plants
we supply are not only adapted to this continent, but can obviously reach the
aspiring Rose-grower in good condition in every country where Roses are known,
grown, and loved.
We shall be pleased to have every lover of Roses visit our Rose-fields during the
growing season. The past summer many hundreds of our customers came to see
the Roses in bloom. There were times when hundreds of thousands of beautiful
and perfect flowers could be seen at one time on many varieties of Roses. You are
invited to participate in this pleasure.

INSURING ROSE PROSPERITY
The Time to Plant Roses
Roses may be planted either in the fall or in
the spring. Many experienced growers prefer
fall planting because then there is less haste, the
ground is warm, and the plants are in position,
ready to take advantage of the first spring push.
(See suggestions for fall planting on next page.)
Spring Planting
By far the larger part of Rose-planting is done
in the spring. It should be done early, and we
again urgently request our friends to place their
Rose orders in midwinter, so that shipment may
be made at the most favorable time for insuring
success.
Late Spring Planting
For those who for any reason are prevented
from early spring planting, we have provided in
all the leading varieties a limited supply of Roses
which have been started in pots, not in green-
houses but in coldframes, and these we can ship
for garden extension or garden replacement at
any time while they last.
Getting Ready for Roses
While Roses will endure poor conditions and
flower under such conditions, the success which
follows proper preparation makes that prepara-
tion always advisable.
Deep preparation of the soil is often urged,
even to as much as 3 feet, and while in cases
where drainage is poor this is important, it is by
no means always essential. Good results may
be had with far less expense and trouble. To
stir the ground thoroughly to the depth of two
spade-shoves, put down honestly 9 inches each
shove, will usually provide for root prosperity.
If the ground is soggy or wet, there must be
drainage provided — Roses want plenty of water
passing through the soil, but they will not endure
wet feet! Rough clods, stones, bats, etc., to a
depth of 6 inches will do the draining.
Roses are not dainty feeders. They like strong
soil and plenty of food. The heavy soils, like
those of clay, seem to please them most, though
even in sand they will do well if additional food
is supplied.
Well-rotted manure — cow manure preferred,
stable manure nearly as good — is the key that
unlocks the flower gates for Roses. Plenty of it,
to the extent of one-third the whole bulk that
has been stirred up; well-rotted for certain;
thoroughly mixed in the soil, so that the Rose
roots may easily find it; and the planter may feel
that he has done his part.
Bone-meal will help, if available, especially
when worked into the soil as planting is done, at
rate of a large trowelful to a plant. Commercial
sheep manure, in the same proportion, is useful.
Scotch soot, resulting from the burning of
peat, is of known value, both as a fertilizer for
spring dressing and to bother the bugs; and any
soot from a chimney above a wood-fire is valuable.
Well-rotted manure is the standby of the
Rose-grower, however. Put in plenty, and then
put in some more when the beds are prepared.
Dig more in each spring; keep at it; Roses often
starve to death, but seldom die of indigestion!
Planting Roses
If at all practicable, the Rose-bed ought to be
ready long enough before the Roses come to
permit the ground thoroughly to settle. For
early spring planting the preparation might well
be made the preceding autumn, while for the
desirable fall planting several weeks of “settling”
will help, though not essential.
When the Roses arrive from our nurseries, the
planter should have the ground ready. Open
the package and separate the bundles, then “heel
in” — which is simply loose planting in a slanting
trench — so that the plants can be taken for
setting 2 or 3 at a time. Keep the roots covered
all the time, and if it is windy, carry the plants
to the place of planting in a pail of water. Rose
roots are not intended to be exposed to the air;
they belong in the ground.
After the hole is dug and ready, take a plant
and carefully prune any mangled ends of the
roots, using a sharp knife or prun-
ing shears. If planting in the fall, cut
the top but slightly, so that the final
pruning may be done in the spring.
If in spring, trim back all branches
to not more than 3 to 6 “eyes,” or
buds, and remove entirely all but
the 3 or 4 strongest shoots.
(See illustration.)
Set the plant in the hole,
which ought to be larger than
the net space required,
spreading out the roots care-
fully, so that fine earth can
be brought
into contact
with them.
When they
are thus
separated and covered, fill in more
good soil over the roots, firming it
down with the hands. When the
hole is full, stamp the soil firmly
with the feet. Roses will not do
well if loosely planted; the roots
love firm soil.
Plant about 2 inches deeper
than the “crown” from which the
shoots arise. This deep planting is
essential. (See illustration.)

Cultivation and Protection
Roses need continuous cultivation. Keep the
soil stirred, so that it does not cake about them,
but do not cultivate deeper than 2 inches.
Water thoroughly when the Roses are planted.
This means that the ground ought to be soaked
to the depth of the planting. During the growing
season a real, thorough watering once a week will
help. Do not “sprinkle” and think you are
watering. Soak the ground when you do water,
and then do not again water until the surface is
quite dry.
Protect from bugs and bothers by spraying
with bordeaux mixture (see any good Rose book
for details) several times prior to June 30, begin-
ning while the plants are dormant. If the green
aphis or plant louse comes, spray with a solution of
Ivory or other soap, or with a weak solution of
some nicotine preparation, like “Black-Leaf 40.”
Very good results have followed the use of a
mulch of about 3 inches of tobacco stems, the
refuse from cigar factories. The earth is kept
cool and the aphis repelled.
The dreaded “black spot” is less likely to
bother our outdoor-grown, husky Roses than
those that have been greenhouse infected. Pick
up and burn all dropped leaves, cultivate thor-
oughly, cut flowers with liberal stems, and vig-
orous growth will act as the best protection
against insects and diseases.
The 1922 American Rose Annual prints in its
complete article on rose insects and diseases a
dependable treatment for “black spot.” Before
the disease appears, the plants are to be dusted
(using a “dust gun”) with a mixture of nine parts
dusting sulphur to one part powdered lead
arsenate, and this treatment, repeated each three
Captain Hayward. See page 37
weeks during the summer, will also protect
against powdery mildew and certain insects.
When winter comes and the ground has frozen,
Hybrid Tea and Tea Roses need protection
against the sun and the thawing of warm winter
days. Evergreen boughs are ideal for this pro-
tection. In severe climates Roses are protected
by covering with earth, and sometimes by also
covering with boards to shed water.
The Hybrid Perpetuals are hardy, as are most
of the Climbers, but a little protection is alto-
gether worth while for all of them. In this matter,
as in other matters of Rose prosperity, association
with other Rose-lovers is invaluable. Join the
American Rose Society, read its Annuals, and
talk with the Rose friends you will find in your
vicinity. It is worth while.
Using Cut Roses
To get the full value of the cut flowers, Roses
should be cut when the bud is half opened, using
a sharp scissors, knife, or pruning-shears, and
taking as long a stem as possible without muti-
lating the bush or removing the young buds
which will later develop. It is best to cut either
in the cool of the evening or in early morning,
plunging the stems deeply into a vase filled with
water, which should be left for an hour at least
in a cool, dark place.
Suggestions for Fall Planting of Roses
Upon receipt of the plants, open the bundle
and give them a thorough watering, or immerse
the plants in a pail or tub of water for a few hours.
Do not allow plants to be exposed to sun and
wind. After removing them from the water, cut
away roots that may be broken or damaged.
Prepare the soil as before directed. In plant-
ing, dig a hole sufficiently large to accom-
modate the roots when spread out on the
bottom of the hole, the same as you would spread
your hand on a flat surface. In filling in the soil,
shake the plant lightly in order that the soil may
mix between the roots, then fill in the soil and
firm it in order that the plant may be solid. Be
sure to see that the lower parts of the lower
branches are below the surface of the soil.
Before cold weather sets in and the frost enters
the ground, mound the soil around the branches
of the plant to a height of at least 8 to 12 inches,
and then cover with loose litter. This will prevent
the wind and sun drying the branches during the
winter. At the proper time in the spring, remove
the soil and cut back the branches to within 4
to 6 inches of the ground.
In the cultivation of Roses, the soil cannot be
too tight at the roots and too loose on the surface.
In the spring, the soil should be removed and
the branches of the plant cut back to within 4 to
6 inches of the ground. A calm day during a dull
or rainy period should be chosen, as the wood will
suffer very much if exposed to the sun and wind
after being uncovered.

WHAT ROSES TO PLANT
Embraced in the following pages will be found certainly the largest collection of Rose varieties
available anywhere in America, well-grown plants of which can be procured by our customers. To
make more easily practicable proper consideration of this great list, purchasers are recommended to
thoughtfully read the following statements before completing their orders.
The Everblooming Roses, so called, include
Hybrid Tea, Pernetiana, and Tea Roses, grouped
in one alphabetical order but designated in their
respective classes by suitable initials. These
Roses give the widest range of beautiful flowers
over the longest season, in the complete gamut
of all colors yet known in the Rose. Most of them
are fragrant. They are not all reliably hardy all
over the United States, but if protected as
recommended in this catalogue, they can be
grown anywhere on the continent, even to and
beyond the shores of Hudson Bay.
The special qualifications and origins relating
to each of these classes included under the one
head of “Everblooming” are given in following
pages. It is here in point to commend them as
suitable for gardens everywhere, because they
provide within a few weeks after planting, and
more or less frequently all through the growing
season, the most beautiful Roses yet known to
man.
Polyantha Roses follow, and might well be
embraced with the Everbloomers, because they
are constantly in flower all through the growing
season. They are characterized by dwarf and
compact habit and by their clustered flowers,
which include a wide range of color. They are
best planted in front of other Everblooming Roses.
Hardy Climbing Roses include those of the
Multiflora and of the Wichuraiana parentage, and
the list here presented, much the largest available
anywhere in America, provides a wide range of
the most beautiful flowers, borne usually in one
great burst in early summer on plants of splendid
vigor which can be used in the different varieties
to cover gateways, porches, fences, pergolas,
hedges, and trellises, to trail over banks to be
protected, or as beautiful “pillars” in the garden,
or, indeed, with a little training, as admirable
bushes in the shrubbery. For the most part
they bloom but once, but they then justify them-
selves as fully as does any lilac or spirea.
Other Climbing Roses follow, including the
climbing sports of the Hybrid Teas and similar
forms, mostly not quite so hardy as those above
mentioned and not providing the one wonderful
burst of bloom in June, though blooming recur-
rently through the season. In suitable localities
these Roses are of great value and beauty.
Hybrid Perpetual Roses are those of rugged
hardiness, showing flowers of enormous size, the
most brilliant colors, and the sweetest fragrance.
that provide a most notable bloom crop in early
summer, thereafter blooming but sparsely, if at
all, in the fall, save for one or two that are con-
tinuous under good culture. These Roses are of
taller growth than the Everblooming and Poly-
antha Roses.
Austrian Brier Roses include several sorts of
hardiness, excellence, and unique beauty. These
are taller in growth and require careful consid-
eration in placing them.
Rugosa Roses and their hybrids provide dis-
tinct and beautiful foliage, with flowers of a
wide range of beauty and fragrance, freely pro-
duced in early summer, and recurrently later, on
plants of the most rampant vigor but not of
climbing habit. These desirable Roses make
good defensive hedges, may be trained to novel
forms, and require more room and height than
other Roses mentioned.
Hybrid Sweetbriers include improvements on
the famous old Eglantine of Shakespeare. They
are covered in early summer with a mass of
exquisite single blossoms and are primarily useful
as bold and broad objects in the shrubbery.
Moss Roses belong with the Hybrid Perpetual
Roses, being characterized by one blooming
season and by their flowers of unique beauty,
the buds showing the mossy covering which
distinguishes them. They are ruggedly hardy.
The Wild Roses and Rose Species are the
natural forms of the Rose, American, European,
Chinese and Japanese, which have persisted for
many centuries. All of them are beautiful, some
are unique, and all may be placed advantageously
in parks, in large shrubbery borders, or on large
grounds where room can be given them.
Miscellaneous Roses follow, including some
of the oldest forms known to cultivation, among
the Damask, Musk, French, Provence, Cabbage,
Bengal, and Bourbon types. These Roses also
are generally best in shrubbery relationships, or
as borders, or in beds in large Rose-gardens, or
for particular purposes in the gardens of those
who know them. They are for the most part
completely hardy, long-lived, and enduring.
It should be noted that while we have above
explained and have mentioned elsewhere in this
catalogue the particular uses of different classes
of Roses, and are mentioning in several depart-
ments those most adapted for special uses and
situations, we will be pleased to give further
advice to inquirers.

New Hybrid Wichuraiana Rose, Mary Wallace
Named by the Portland Rose Society in honor of the daughter of Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace. It was originated at the Maryland Station of the Department of Agriculture by the late
lamented Dr. W. Van Fleet, one of the world’s
greatest rosarians, who has given us such world-
famed varieties as American Pillar, Silver Moon,
Dr. Van Fleet, and many other meritorious sorts
Mary Wallace is the first of a series of what has
been called “dooryard” Roses, that is expected
to be of great usefulness and adaptability, and
to the production of which Dr. Van Fleet was
giving his best endeavors at the time of his death.
The Department describes it as a pillar
Rose, making a fine, strong, self-supporting
plant 6 to 8 feet high, with large, glossy foliage,
blooming with great freedom in spring and
bearing a considerable number of fine buds in
summer and fall. Flowers very large, generally
exceeding 4 inches across, well-formed, semi-
of a bright clear rose-pink, with salmon
Allowed space to develop, it makes a
graceful bush from 4 to 5 feet high, clothed all
over with its pleasing, disease-resisting foliage,
which gives it the “dooryard” auality that was
Dr. Van Fleet’s ideal. It can also be used as a
pillar or low climber. Hardy, having been tested
in northern New York and New England.

Rutherford, N. J. THE EVERBLOOMING ROSES
THE EVERBLOOMING ROSES
INCLUDING HYBRID TEA, PERNETIANA, AND TEA ROSES
BY FAR the larger number of Roses grown in the gardens and dooryards of America
i are in the so-called “everblooming” class, though it would be much better if the
class came to be known as including “recurrent-blooming” Roses. The distinction
between these Roses and all other Roses hardy in the northern part of the United States,
save the separately mentioned Polyantha class, is that these recurrent-blooming sorts
furnish flowers on the new growth through the blooming season, and if they are kept growing
one crop of bloom succeeds another; whereTore they are called “everblooming.”
Among these Roses are found the results of the utmost endeavors of the great Rose
hybridizers of the world for more than a half-century since Guillot in 1867 sent out the
first Hybrid Tea, La France. In this half-century of endeavor, size, form, variety of color,
fragrance, and general beauty and adaptability have all advanced more than in the previous
two thousand years of Rose history.
These Roses are approximately hardy over the intensive garden sections of the United
States, and are freely grown in Canada and regions as cold with suitable and not difficult
protection. But though they should not survive a winter, it is the belief of many Rose-
lovers that these everblooming Roses TuIIy justify themselves within one season, for it is
entirely practicable to plant Roses early in the spring and to secure from the resulting
vigorously growing bushes so great a reward in lovely flowers as to far more than repay
the moderate expenditure involved.
It is in the production of these most important of all Roses in American gardens that
skill, experience, and research count for most. Our American-grown, outdoor-reared
plants, which have not passed a single moment under glass in greenhouses, are budded on
the best stock known to commerce, and are consequently such as will give assured satis-
faction under proper handling.

THE EVERBLOOMING ROSES
The Hybrid Teas (designated hereafter by the letters HT) include the major part
of this list, resulting from crosses between the tender Tea Roses and the ruggedly hardy
Hybrid Perpetual garden Roses. They supply the widest range of beauty in color and
form, of fragrance and fine habit, and if nurtured and protected as recommended in this
catalogue, are completely dependable.
The Pernetiana Roses (designated hereafter by the abbreviation Per.) are a
relatively new class, mostly resulting from the generation of effort placed upon combina-
tions between other Hybrid Teas and the brilliantly colored Austrian Brier type by Mons.
Pernet-Ducher, a devoted French hybridizer. They supply the tints of yellow, salmon,
orange and flame-crimson not otherwise found, and are characterized not only by beauty
and color of blooms, but usually by good fragrance and by deep green leathery foliage.
They have a certain susceptibility to the “black spot” disease, which, however, can be
successfully controlled by following the directions given on page 6.
The Tea Roses (designated hereafter by the letter T) are the basis of the everbloom-
ing class, and are primarily the earlier development of varieties from the more tropical
forms that bloom on the wood of the current year. They include some of our -finest and
most desirable varieties, and they can be carried over comfortably by protective treatment
just a little more complete than that given the Hybrid Teas. The first Tea Roses came
from China the latter part of the eighteenth century. They were first introduced by
Guillot in 1873 crossing between Climbers and Rosa indica.
The Polyantha Roses, which actually deserve the designation of “everblooming”
more than any other Roses, are treated separately on page 40.
All these Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10, for strong field-grown plants, except where otherwise priced

Hermosa
CHINA OR BENGAL ROSES
Here are included Roses of dwarf but
vigorous habit, and continual bloomers. They
need light protection north of Washington,
though Hermosa is as hardy anywhere as the
Hybrid Tea Roses.
These Roses have very fine wood and are
difficult to propagate by budding. Some of the
plants will, therefore, be on their own roots.
The China or Bengal Roses are $1 each for strong
field-grown plants
CHIN-CHIN. (Hobbies, 1909.) Medium double sul-
phur-yellow blooms.
COMTESSE DU CAYLA. (P. Guillot, 1902.) Nas-
turtium-red to orange-yellow. Double flowers; very fine.

vigorous; free-flowering.
FABVIER. (Laffay, 1832.) Dazzling crimson with white
center, semi-double.
HERMOSA. (Marcheseau, 1840.) Medium-sized, full flowers of
soft pink, continuously produced on a sturdy plant. Has been a
standard constant blooming sort for more than two generations,
its symmetrically formed blooms always winning admiration. Does
well in pots.
HOF GARTNER KOLB. (Felberg-Leclerc,
1914.) Flowers large, full and fragrant, bright
carmine in color, with transparent yellow center,
the outer petals shaded bright red. Plant
vigorous and bushy.
MME. EUGENE RESAL. (P. Guillot, 1894.)
Buds nasturtium-red on orange-yellow; flowers
large, double, rosy pink shaded orange — a very
beautiful color combination and much admired.
Vigorous grower. The first entry of yellow
shades into the class which provides all the con-
stant blooming tendency.
MME. LAURETTE MESSIMY. (Guillot,
1887.) Bright China pink on coppery rose-pink.
Long-pointed bud. Large, full flower. Vigorous
grower.
OLD BLUSH. (Parsons, 1796.) The origin of

HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES
Rathorford, M J
The June display of the Hybrid Perpetuals is of great magnificence
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES
THESE Roses are the completely hardy, vigorous sorts that are dependable in all
parts of the United States, though they are not, as their name implies, perpetual
in bloom. They produce in June the great and overpowering burst of bloom that
makes it the month of brides and Roses. They are worth while because of this bloom
quality, and because when they do bloom in June they produce a far greater show of flowers
than is possible to any- everblooming sort. They include also forms that are fuller and
sweeter and larger than those found in any other class, and they therefore form the frame-
work of the Rose-garden, while in the more northern locations they are the only Roses
that may be depended upon for complete hardiness. Some of them produce flowers in the
fall, particularly if the foliage is kept free from disease and the plants are fertilized. They
were first introduced in 1848 by Laffay.
All these Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10, except where noted, for strong field-grown plants
ALFRED COLOMB. (Lacharme, 1865.) Straw-
berry-red, with crimson-carmine reflexes; large,
full, very free, and hardy.
ALFRED K. WILLIAMS. (Schwartz, 1877.)
Carmine-red, changing to magenta; large, full,
of imbricated form, fragrant. Growth moderate.
AMERICAN BEAUTY. (Bancroft, 1886.)
This famous Rose of the florists is in reality the
French rose, Mme. Ferdinand Jamin, but was
imported by the historian Bancroft in 1886 and
at his suggestion later introduced as American
Beauty by a Washington florist. Its very large
blooms are deep pink to soft carmine, with
delicate veining of dark red on the broad petals.
Under proper care it is a strong grower.
ANNA DE DIESBACH. (Lacharme, 1859.)
Bright carmine-red, in large, full, and fragrant
flowers of the most attractive character. A
vigorous grower and excellent bloomer.
BARON DE BONSTETTEN. (Liabaud, 1871.)
Dark velvety crimson flowers, large and of fine
full form, as well as deliciously fragrant.
BARONESS ROTHSCHILD. (Pernet, 1867.)
Dainty pale pink is the color of this superb Rose,
large in size and symmetrical in form, as well
as fragrant. As each Rose is set in its own cup
of beautiful foliage, it has attained prominence
as the acme of perfection in its class.
CAPTAIN CHRISTY. (Lacharme, 1873.)
Plump and heavy buds with backward-curling
petals, including both light and dark pink colors,
the massive open bloom showing darker toward
the center. This variety is a sturdy and rather
dwarf grower.
CAPTAIN HAYWARD. (Bennett, 1893.)
Brilliant carmine in its large and highly perfumed
flowers, which are freely produced.

George Arends Rose
CLIO. (Wm. Paul & Son, 1894.) Soft satiny
flesh-color, with pink center, in large and globular
flowers borne on long stems, and showing a
lovely cup-shaped form in its rosette of foliage.
COMMANDEUR JULES GRAVEREAUX.
(Croibier & Son, 1908.) The long-pointed
buds and large, full flowers are of uniform
velvety red, shaded maroon.
EARL OF DUFFERIN. (A. Dickson & Sons,

of clear velvety crimson. Plant of good flowering
habit.
EUGENE FURST. (Soupert & Notting, 1876.)

Bright crimson-scarlet, and with long and pointed
buds which open into a huge flower of excellent
shape and great beauty.
FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI. (P. Lambert,
1900.) A recent referendum among the members
of the American Rose Society brought out the
information that this is the most popular Rose
in America. Its pure, snow-white, unshaded
blooms are of immense size, sometimes reaching
almost to 6 inches in diameter, and they are of
lasting quality, on fine stems, though without
fragrance. The plant grows very strongly and
vigorously, and in addition to its abundant
bloom in June, will, if kept growing, produce
many flowers throughout the summer and in
the autumn. No substitute for “Druschki”
has yet appeared.
GENERAL JACQUEMINOT. (Roussel, 1852.)
Long a favorite as the “Jack” Rose, its brilliant
scarlet-crimson flowers, large, full, globular, and
sweet, are yet in the top rank of quality.
GEORGE ARENDS. (Hinner, 1910.) Well-
shaped, delicate pink buds of pure, even color,
opening into large and very beautiful flowers,
abundantly produced on a strong-growing plant.
Sometimes called “Pink Druschki,” and un-
doubtedly at the very top in its color.
GEORGE DICKSON. (A. Dickson & Sons,
1912.) Large, full and fragrant blooms of deep
velvety crimson which does not turn blue.
GLOIRE DE CHEDANE-GUINOISSEAU.
(Chedane & Pajotin, 1907.) Large, full, globular
flowers of vermilion-red, shaded deeper red, on
vigorous plants.
GLOIRE LYONNAISE. (P. Guillot, 1884.)
White, tinted yellow, deeper in center, with good
fragrance in a large and lovely flower.
GRUSS AN SCHLESIEN. (H. Kiese & Co.
1921.) Very large, red flower. Vigorous grower.
HEINRICH MUNCH. (Munch & Haufe,
1911.) Literally immense are the soft pink
blooms of this great Rose, much resembling
Frau Karl Druschki, and borne on plants of great
vigor, frequently blooming again in fall.
HER MAJESTY. (Bennett, 1885.) Clear
satiny rose; very large and shapely blooms.
HUGH DICKSON. (H. Dickson, 1904.)
Intense crimson, shaded scarlet, are the large
and full flowers of this sweetly perfumed Rose,
which has deserved a gold medal in England.
J. B. CLARK. (H. Dickson, 1905.) Intense
deep scarlet, shaded blackish maroon, in exceed-
ingly large and full blooms of moderate fra-
grance. Plant a rampant grower, blooming best in
June, but sometimes repeating in the fall. Has
been improperly classed with the Hybrid Teas.
JOHN HOPPER. (Ward, 1862.) Large
shapely blooms, sweetly scented and of rosy red,
changing to purple-carmine.
JUBILEE. (Walsh, 1897.) Deep, rich maroon
is this, which seems to be the darkest pure, one-
colored Rose yet produced.
JULES MARGOTTIN. (Margottin, 1853.)
Bright carmine; large, full, and fragrant.
LEONIE LAMBERT. (P. Lambert, 1913.)
Silvery pink, more yellowish pink toward center.
Very large, fragrant flowers. Dark green foliage.
Strong upright grower.

MAGNA CHARTA. (Wm. Paul & Son, 1876.)
Large flowers of rosy pinkish carmine, carrying
heavy fragrance and freely produced on good
plants. An old favorite.
MARGARET DICKSON. (A. Dickson & Sons,
1891.) White, with pale flesh center, is this Gold-
Medal Rose in its large and well-formed flowers
borne on vigorous plants.
MARSHALL P. WILDER. (Ellwanger &
Barry, 1885.) Rich, glowing red in large, semi-
globular and very full flowers freely produced
on strong plants.
MME. VICTOR VERDIER. (E. Verdier,
1863.) Vivid carmine.
MRS. JOHN LAING. (Bennett, 1887.) Im-
mense blooms of soft, clear pink, following long
buds which open into the cup-shaped and fra-
grant flowers. The strong-growing plant is a free
bloomer and the variety is deservedly popular.
RUHM VON STEINFURTH. (Weigand, 1920.)
Geranium-red. Vigorous, upright grower. Also
called the “Red Frau Karl Druschki.”
SUZANNE-MARIE RODOCANACHI.
(Leveque, 1883.) Rosy cerise, shaded white, in
a large, full, and globular flower.
ULRICH BRUNNER. (Levet, 1881.) Large
flowers of light, clear red, tending toward scarlet

abundantly produced flowers are set on long
stems, carried by a plant of vigorous growth. A
standard of excellence.
LUDWIG MOLLER. (H. Kiese & Co., 1914.)
Deep yellow blooms of good form, changing to
pure white. Very vigorous grower with healthy
foliage. Also called “Yellow Frau Karl Druschki.”
MME. GABRIEL LUIZET. (Liabaud, 1877.)
Light silvery pink blooms of fine substance and
attractive form on good plants. One of the
best sorts.
Magna Charta Rose
rosy pink, the outer petals being delicately
flushed with pale flesh. Plant strong and vigorous.
PAUL NEYRON. (Levet, 1869.) Presumably
the largest Rose in commerce, individual flowers
reaching 6 inches in diameter and standing well
up on strong plants. The exceedingly fragrant
flowers are clear pink, shaded soft rose, and the
habit of the plant is excellent.
PRINCE CAMILLE DE ROHAN. (E. Verdier,
1861.) Dark maroon or blood-red blooms of
unique color effect, on plants of but moderate
vigor.
ROGER LAMBELIN. (Mme. Schwartz, 1890.)
A pleasing semi-double flower of dark crimson,
with petals edged white — unique and fine.

Polyantha Roses as border, and arches of Climbing Roses
POLYANTHA ROSES
THESE interesting and very valuable dwarf Roses are really forms of Rosa multiflora ,
but are classed commercially, rather than botanically, as here designated. Their
low-growing habit, seldom exceeding 15 to 18 inches in height, their interesting and
continual freedom of bloom, and the real beauty of the flowers, borne in the characteristic
clusters of the Multiflora type, commend them as indispensable in any Rose-garden. Not
only do they bloom continually, but they are easy to handle, of equal hardiness with the
Hybrid Teas, and altogether desirable either for edging or for massing. Most of these
plants are budded, but on some varieties the wood is too small or thin and they have to be
grafted.
The newer varieties show improved colors and forms, and we cannot too heartily com-
mend this extremely desirable class of garden Roses.
All the Polyantha Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10, except where noted, for strong field-grown plants. Those
priced at 75 cts. each are $6.50 for 10
AlNNCHEN MULLER. (J. C. Schmidt, 1907.)
This Rose carries eight to ten names, varying in
spelling but meaning always the English equiva-
lent of the name Anny Muller. It bears large
clusters of medium-double deep rose flowers from
June until late autumn. 75 cts. each.
ANDREE LENOBLE. (E. Turbat & Co.,
1916.) Pure bright rose or clear red which does
not fade; enormous clusters of 50 to 100 large
flowers; a good grower, and a sort that should
replace others of less merit.
CECILE BRUNNER. (Mme._ Ducher, 1881.)
Bright rose flowers, with yellowish center, borne
in clusters and fragrant, differing considerably
in form from the average of the class, and a fine
garden variety. 75 cts. each.
CLOTILDE SOUPERT. (Soupert & Netting,
1890.) Flowers with pearly white petals tending
to rosy pink, closely resembling the Hybrid Tea
Roses in form. The plant is vigorous and extremely
hardy. In some localities the buds do not open
always perfectly, but a notable variety. 75c, each.

and continuous-blooming quality. A variety we
most heartily commend. 75 cts. each.
GRUSS AN AACHEN. (P. Geduldig, 1909.)
Different from any other in the class in its pro-
duction of flowers, which are nearly equal to the
average Hybrid Tea in size and form, the color
being flesh-pink overlaid with creamy yellow and
shading to deep pink at the base of broad petals
of notable substance. The plants, well furnished
with deep green foliage, are vigorous and con-
tinuously in bloom, and the variety is one of
exceptional value. (See illustration, page 18.)

1911.) China-rose, shaded with soft peach-pink;
large, elegantly formed flowers, of remarkable
beauty and effectiveness — a real advance in this
class.

1918.) Cherry-red flowers, deepening to crimson
upon opening. A vigorous grower.

forcing. 75 cts. each.

Baby Rambler). (Levavasseur, 1903.) This is
the first sort sent out, and is yet of the utmost
value by reason of its compact, vigorous habit
and its continuous production of rich rosy crim-
son, closely clustered flowers during the whole
season. 75 cts. each.
MRS. W. H. CUTBUSH. (W. Cutbush & Son,

vigorously and blooms freely in spring and fall.
Sometimes called Baby Doll or Lambert.

Flowers large, for the class, of a bright cerise-red

Pure white, with yellowish shading at the base
of the petals in buds of exceptional form that

dance on plants of ideal habit. Probably the
best of the white Polyanthas.
The Polyantha Roses are $1 each, or $9 for 10, unless priced at 75 cts. each, when they are $6.50 for 10
We will cheerfully make selections of these fine Roses for any purpose on application. If our
friends, for example, will give us the size of a bed desired to be planted , we will propose an agreeable
arrangement of Polyanthas for the purpose.

TREE ROSES
STANDARD OR TREE ROSES
THE Standard or Tree Rose plant differs from the ordinary bush Hybrid Tea in that
it has an upright stem several feet in height, and usually of a peculiar form of Rugosa
root, at the top of which has been worked or budded and trained in one of the Hybrid
Tea, Tea, Polyantha, or Climbing Roses. These Tree Roses thus provide flowers in a form
somewhat suggesting that of an umbrella maintained above a single stem, and they are
exceedingly effective when properly used in gardens to mark out walks or aisles or grown
among or in front of the bush Roses. They have stems from to 4 feet high, with 2-year
tops.
All Standard or Tree Roses are $2.50 each, except where otherwise noted
SUGGESTIONS FOR PLANTING AND CARE OF STANDARD OR TREE ROSES
Upon their receipt, submerge the whole plant, if possible, in water for a few hours. Do
not permit the roots to be exposed to sun or wind.
The soil in which they are to be planted should be prepared as for Hybrid Teas, in-
cluding digging at least 18 inches deep and the thorough admixture of much well-rotted
manure, together with a little air-slaked lime to sweeten the soil.
Plant carefully, as recommended on page 0 for Hybrid Teas. Be sure to plant deep
enough, so that there are at least 4 inches of the stem below the surface of the soil.
A strong stake should be placed on the south side of the Rose and the plant carefully
tied to it in such fashion as to prevent chafing.
In the spring the branches of Standard or Tree Roses should be cut back to within
4 inches of the main stem.
Winter protection is best accomplished by wrapping the stem and head with several
thicknesses of heavy paper, afterward carefully loosening the plant from the soil and laying
it down in a trench in which it can be covered with 6 inches or more of soil and some loose
litter. If it is found impossible to thus lay down the plant, an additional wrapping of straw
can be provided, at the same time arranging additional support so that the plant cannot
be torn loose by the winter winds.

Effective Use of Climbing Roses
HARDY CLIMBING ROSES
A RECENT prominent writer on Roses has bewailed the prevalence of only two
or three of the more ordinary Climbers throughout the United States, and the
■ absence in gardens and parks of the many varied and beautiful hardy Climbing
Roses now available.
Our collection includes unquestionably the largest number of good sorts of hardy
Climbing Roses ever brought together on this continent, and we believe so thoroughly in
these Roses that we continually urge their planting, not only as climbers, but as pillars,
as trained shrubs on the lawn, and for the many varied uses for which their rapid and
flexible growth, the good foliage most of them have, and their superb burst of spring
bloom, particularly fit them.
For the most part, the Wichuraiana and Multiflora Climbing Roses here described are
hardy through the major part of the Rose-growing section of the United States, though
in extremely exposed positions, such as in the neighborhood of Chicago, it may be necessary
to protect them, as all Roses are there protected by special means. Usually, Climbing
Roses are there laid down and covered with earth, sometimes burlap and boards being
added for greater security.
It should be noted that Hardy Climbers resemble the Hybrid Perpetual Roses in that
they bloom during the current year on shoots which arise from canes of the previous year,
in this differing entirely from the Tea and Hybrid Tea Roses. Pruning, therefore, must
have reference to the desired number of flowers, for if all of the old wood is cut off in spring,
there will be abundant growth but no flowers for one year. The proper pruning method
for these Hardy Climbers is to cut out all the old canes immediately after flowering, thus
insuring the growth during that season of strong shoots from the base of the plant that will
furnish the blooming wood for the next season. These new canes ought to be trained as
may be desired, and may be pinched at the ends whenever they have grown far enough.
The letters “HW” following any name indicate that the Rose in question is a hybrid
between some everblooming Rose and Rosa Wichuraiana, a natural or wild Rose found
in Japan, and in its native form of trailing habit with glossy foliage and single white flowers.
These hybrids tend to continue the fine and glossy foliage of the type, but are of upright
habit and have large flowers, often as large as those of a Hybrid Tea Rose.

HARDY CLIMBING ROSES
The letters “HM” following any name indicate the crossing of some everblooming
Rose with Rosa multiflora , a native of China and Japan, distinguished by great vigor and its
habit of cluster-flowering. The available natural form grows to a height of 6 to 10 feet and
is completely covered in June with a mass of small white flowers in immense clusters.
The hybrids are of great vigor, of upright habit, and generally carry their fine blooms in
great clusters.
Other forms of climbing Roses, not so hardy as these, are in following lists:
All these Hardy Climbing Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10, except where noted, for strong field-grown plants.
(Those priced at 75 cts. each are $6.50 for 10.)

clear flesh-pink, large, semi-double, with un-
dulated petals.
AUNT HARRIET. HW. (Van Fleet, 1918.)

Van Fleet, whose hardy climbers are of world-
wide reputation. Produces many large and
fragrant flowers of clear, bright crimson, double,
full, cupped, and of notable lasting quality.

American Beauty, it is much superior to that
variety by reason of its brighter color and its
habit of not holding its dead blooms. 75 cts. each.
BIRDIE BLYE. HM. (Van Fleet, 1904.)
Bright satiny rose, with fragrant blossoms, quite
double. A very hardy climber, blooming pro-

DR. W. VAN FLEET. HW. (Van Fleet, 1910.)
If but one Climbing Rose had to be considered,
it should be this one, which combines beauty,
vigor and adaptability to a remarkable degree.
Its perfectly formed buds, equal to the best of
the Hybrid Teas, are long and pointed, deep,
clear pink in color, and produced on individual
long stems. As the Roses open, the color changes
to a lighter form of pink and retains its beauty

DOROTHY PERKINS. HW. (Jackson &
Perkins, 1902.) Scarcely requiring description
because of its wide acceptance and notable
merit. The medium -sized, very double blooms

different from any other Rose in existence. Its
semi-double flowers are dark crimson-maroon

of light yellow stamens. The flowers are large
and usually borne in clusters, with a blooming
habit which means that the plant, if properly
trained as a pillar, is an object of the utmost
distinction for nearly three weeks. No other
Rose approximates this American hardy climber
in brilliant effectiveness. Never fades “blue.”
75 cts. each.
DR. REYMOND. HM. (Mermet, 1908.) Pure
white with greenish white center. Double flowers.

EMILY GRAY. HW. (Williams, 1918.) A
very remarkable new Climbing Rose which
might almost be called a hardy Marechal Niel.
Its golden yellow buds are long, tapering, and
elegant, opening to semi-double flowers of large
size, pleasant fragrance, and a most delightful
buff shade. The foliage differs from that of any
other climbing Rose in its glossy and crinkled
quality and in the deep reddish brown hue of the
young shoots. This variety was deservedly
awarded a Gold Medal in England, and bids fair
to attain great popularity in America, because it
is unique and is seemingly reliably hardy over the
largest part of the Rose-growing territory,
though probably requiring protection in New
England and northern New York. It is well
worth any protection it may require. $1.50
each.
ERNST GRANDPIERRE. HW. (Wcigand,

are produced in immense clusters on plants of
great vigor and beauty. Altogether the best of its
type.

While good as a climber, it is of peculiar excel-
lence when used as a creeper or trailer.

good condition on the plants. These flowers
never turn blue, but retain their intense coloring
until the petals fall. The plant may be used
either as an ordinary climber or to make aston-

charming cupped flowers. It is very desirable
for itself and in connection with Tausendschon,
and is a Rose worth much more attention than
it has yet had.

SILVER MOON. HW. (Van Fleet, 1910.)
To the Rose-lover who has not enjoyed Silver

decorative all through the growing season by
reason of its great canes and deep, rich foliage,
but literally a wonder at bloom-time for its long,
well-shaped buds of faint yellow which open
into immense pure white flowers, often reaching
4 inches or more in diameter. These blooms are
semi-double and with very distinctly curled and
curved center petals which surround the bright
yellow stamens and add piquancy to the whole
effect. An indispensable white Rose. 75 cts. each.

CLIMBING HYBRID TEA AND SIMILAR ROSES
IT is one of the curious mutations of plant-growth that when large numbers of individuals
of one kind are grown there is a tendency toward changes, or “sports,” among which
at times arise varieties different in color and in habit. Through these sports many
well-known Roses have assumed a climbing form. These bloom much more frequently
during the season than the hardy climbers, but not so freely as their parents. They are
not quite so vigorous in growth as the other climbers, and will need simple winter pro-
tection north of the latitude of Washington. It is usually quite sufficient to either lay down
the canes so they may be covered with earth, or to give them a wrapping of straw.
These Climbers are $1 each, except where noted, for strong field-grown plants

LAMBERTIANA ROSES
CLIMBING LAMBERTIANA ROSES
THIS, we believe, is the first separate offering in America of a class of Roses origi-
nated by the well-known rosarian, Peter Lambert, who is striving to produce an
everblooming hardy climber, through the breeding into existing Multiflora types
of other strains of Rose blood tending toward recurrent blooming. The well-known Rose,
Trier, is one of his productions, and while he has not succeeded in producing everblooming
climbers, he has obtained some varieties which will flower again throughout the summer,
though not in the abundance of the first crop.
These Roses, while of climbing habit and adaptable to trellises or other uses of climbers,
can also be allowed to make rather shapely and symmetrical bushes in the shrubbery or
mixed border. We commend them particularly to the attention of those who are interested
in the advance of this most important class of Roses.
The following varieties are $1.50 each
ARNDT. (P. Lambert, 1913.) Helene X
Gustav Griinerwald. Pink, medium-sized flowers
in loose clusters. Very free-flowering.
KORNER. (Lambert, 1914.) Trier X Eugenie
Lamesch. Reddish orange-yellow. Vigorous,
upright grower; hardy.
EXCELLENZ VON SCHUBERT. (Lambert,
1909.) Mme. Norbert Levavasseur X Frau
Karl Druschki. Blooms small, double, dark
carmine-pink, borne in compact clusters of 5 to
20 on the end of every shoot. Vigorous grower
and blooms until frost; dark green foliage.
GEHEIMRAT DR. MITTWEG. (Lambert,
1909.) Mme. Norbert Levavasseur X Trier.
Rose-pink with yellow center. Large trusses and
full, glossy foliage. The raiser claims this to be
the most perpetual flowering of its class.
HAUFF. (Lambert, 1911.) Aimee Vibert X
Turner’s Crimson Rambler. Double, reddish
violet blooms of medium size are borne in clusters.
A strong grower with large, dark green foliage;
hardy.
HOFFMANN VON FALLERSLEBEN. (Lam-
bert, 1915.) Geheimrat Dr. Mittweg X Tip-Top.
Salmon-red, turning to yellowish shades. Strong
grower, free-flowering.
KOMMERZIENRAT W. RAUTENSTRAUCH.
(Lambert, 1909.) Leonie Lamesch X Rosa lutea
bicolor. The pretty round, Polyantha-Iike blooms
are double, of soft pink color, with light yellow
center and reverse of petal whitish pink, and are
borne in clusters of five to twelve. A strong
grower.
LESSING. (Lambert, 1914.) Trier X En-
tente Cordiale. Flowers in large clusters, small,
rather full, dark rose, with white stripe in middle
of each petal and citron-yellow center; fragrant;
large, dark green foliage.
PETER ROSEGGER. (Lambert.) Geheimrat
Dr. Mittweg X Tip-Top. Coral-rose, full, well-
shaped flower. Free-flowering; glossy foliage.
SCHILLER. (Lambert, 1913.) Trier X Lady
Mary Fitzwilliam. Blooms small, rather full, in
large clusters, reddish pink, passing to clear pink.
A fine climber that blooms almost continuously
and is especially good in autumn. It is probably
the best variety in this new class.
UHLAND. (Lambert, — .) Geheimrat Dr.
Mittweg X Tip-Top. Globular bud, opening into
reddish yellow bloom with slightly fringed
petals. It is a moderate climber, with pointed
leaves, like Tip-Top; flowers in clusters of 3 to 15,
and is a most distinct variety.
VON LILIENCRON. (Lambert, 1916.) Ge-
heimrat Dr. Mittweg X Mrs. Aaron Ward. The
flowers are small, double, white with a shading
of soft pink, and have yellow stamens; they are
borne in upright clusters; the plant has large
foliage and few thorns.

CLIMBING NOISETTE ROSES
The Climbing Noisettes are not hardy in the North, but are superb in Florida and
California. They provide flowers of the much desired yellow tints.
BELLE VICHYSOISE. (L6veque, 1897.) Very
vigorous and a very free bloomer; flowers pink to
pinkish white, in clusters of 20 to 50. $1 each.
CHROMATELLA (Cloth of Gold). (Coquereau,
1843.) Flower sulphur-yellow, center deeper
yellow, large, globular, full, fragrant. A very
vigorous climber; especially fine South. $1 each.
GLOIRE DE DIJON. (Jacotot, 1853.) Full
and lovely blooms, creamy buff on the outer
petals, tinting orange-yellow toward the center.
Plant a strong grower. One of the handsomest
climbing Roses, and well known all over the
world. $1 each.
MARECHAL NIEL. (Pradel, 1864.) Tender
in the North, but prized in the South for its
wonderfully sweet and lovely pointed yellow
buds, which are the model of beauty in form
and fragrance. Does well in greenhouses North.
$1 each.
MME. JULES GRAVEREAUX. (Soupert &
Notting, 1901.) Large, full, deep yellow flowers,
with rosy peach center; vigorous and free-
blooming. $1 each.
MME. PLANTIER. (Plantier, 1835.) Mod-
erate-sized, pure white, double flowers on a plant
of distinct and vigorous but slender growth.
Blooms freely in its season; is extensively used
for cemetery planting; entirely hardy. $1 each.
WILLIAM ALLEN RICHARDSON. (Mme.
Ducher, 1878.) Pointed buds, opening to sweetly
scented flowers varying from pale buff to apricot-
yellow, and giving a remarkable color effect. A
very lovely Rose where hardy. $1 each.
AUSTRIAN BRIER ROSES
A MOST interesting and important class of Roses, based on Rosa fcetida. Though
called Austrian Brier, the species is native to Asia. It contributes great value to
L the garden by reason of the definitely substantial yellow color of the flowers and
the enduring quality of the plants, which bloom very abundantly quite early in the spring
Rose season. The growth is peculiar and rather leggy, so that these Roses do best when
kept either where other Roses can be grown in front of them or in a similar place in the
shrubbery. They are resentful of pruning, save by the removal of occasional old canes,
and it is not unusual to find an acquainted Rose-grower keeping duplicate plants so that
when he prunes one year he need not expect bloom on that plant.
Many efforts have been made to combine the remarkable color quality of the Austrian
Brier with other Roses, but it is reluctant to mate with other species. The Pernetiana
Roses show importantly this yellow tendency, which is said to result from the infusion
of Rosa foetida blood into the Hybrid Tea strain.
AUSTRIAN COPPER. (Gerard, 1596.) Single
flowers of medium size and of an extraordinarily
bright coppery red, the reverse of the petals
being golden yellow. No other Rose provides
such a notably brilliant color. $1 each.
HARISON’S YELLOW. (Harison, 1830.)
Apparently a hybrid made by a clergyman of
New York City, in 1830, between the Austrian
Brier and Rosa spinosissima. This variety is
of the utmost value, providing semi-double,
bright golden yellow flowers which cover the
whole of the plant in spring and are delightfully
fragrant. $1 each.
PERSIAN YELLOW. (Willock, 1837.) A
double-flowered form, producing in the spring
the utmost profusion of blooms, which are a
darker yellow than Harison’s Yellow; pleasantly
fragrant. $1 each.
SONNENLICHT. (Krhger, 1913.) Canary-
yellow, semi-double, sweet scented blooms. Vigor-
ous grower. A variety of great beauty. $1 each.
n
RUGOSA ROSES AND THEIR
HYBRIDS
THE advent into America of Rosa rugosa from northern China, Korea, and Japan, has
given a notable facility to American Rose-growing. They were first introduced by
Thunberg in 1784. Not only are the species themselves, with their wrinkled leaves
(rugose is the scientific term for “wrinkled”), hardy, attractive in form and lovely in
bloom, but their hybrids are fine.
The Rugosa species are useful as single plants on the lawn, retaining their vigorous
and bushy habit with perfect foliage throughout the season, and they form superb hedges
which, when they grow too tall, may be ruthlessly cut off, renewing wholly in one or two
seasons from the root. The plants may reach 5 to 8 feet in height, and certain of the hybrids
are of even greater vigor. All the Rugosa Roses bloom abundantly in the spring and tend
constantly to recur in bloom during the season, providing, indeed, the only reliable hardy
constant-blooming Roses available all over America.
All the Rugosa Roses are 75 cts. each, $6.50 for 10, except where noted, for strong field-grown plants
ARNOLD. (Dawson, 1893.) This variety has
the growth, foliage and single bloom of the
Rugosa, but the rich, glowing scarlet of General
Jacqueminot. It blooms in mid-June, for several
weeks and then intermittently all summer.
ATROPURPUREA. (Paul & Son, 1900.)
Light crimson and chestnut-brown.
BELLE POITEVINE. (Bruant, 1895.) Large,
double flowers of clear magenta-pink, borne in
trusses; plant vigorous and free-flowering.
BLANC DOUBLE DE COUBERT. (Cochet-
Cochet, 1892.) Probably the best white Rugosa
hybrid, freely producing semi-double fragrant,
pure white flowers 4 inches or more in diameter.
CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER. (Muller,
1900.) A rampant grower, producing, under
favorable conditions, in a single season, canes
fully 12 feet in height which can be most ef-
fectively tied down on each other, forming a
natural arch. The flowers are very large, double,
and fragrant, and are of clear, bright silvery rose
of the most attractive character.
F. J. GROOTENDORST. (De Goey, 1918.)
Evidently the beginning of a new and particu-
larly admirable race of Rugosa hybrids, this
variety has been aptly described as “a Rugosa
rose with the flowers of a red carnation.” These
flowers are in clusters and are persistently pro-
duced from early spring until frost, no other
Rose of any other class excelling it in continuous
bloom. The habit is bushy and vigorous. A
remarkable and dependable sort for single speci-
mens or hedges. $1 each, $9 for 10.
HANSA. (Schaum, 1905.) Large, double,
reddish violet flowers. The plants are rampant
growers and prolific bloomers.
HILDENBRANDSECK. (P. Lambert, 1909.)
Light carmine; medium size; semi-double. Strong
grower. Blooms from June until frost.
MAX GRAF. (Bowditch, 1919.) See Hardy

MME. GEORGES BRUANT. (Bruant, 1887.)
Large, loosely double flowers of pure white,
with a rich fragrance. An excellent decorative
sort which flowers in clusters.
NEW CENTURY. (Van Fleet, 1900.) A
Van Fleet hybrid, producing very full and double
flowers of good size, clear flesh-pink with light red
center, petals sometimes bordered creamy white.
NOVA ZEMBLA. (Mees, 1907.) Desirable to
plant with Conrad Ferdinand Meyer because it is
of similarly rampant growth. Its large, double,
and sweet flowers are nearly white in color.
RUGOSA. Pink and red seedlings.
RUGOSA ALBA. This is the white form of
the native Japanese species. Its blooms often
measure 3 inches across, are produced singly
or in clusters, and are followed by brilliant red
fruits or heps which continue the decorative
effect of the whole plant. Admirably adapted
for hedge use.
RUGOSA ALBA PLENA. Double white form
of the above variety.
RUGOSA REPENS ALBA. Produces im-
mense single white flowers in profusion on long
stems which prefer to trail, though they can
easily be trained up for 15 feet or more.
RUGOSA RUBROPLENA. Dark double red
form of Rugosa.
ROSE A PARFUM DE L’HAY. (Gravereaux,
1903.) Large, full, fragrant flowers, cherry-red

white flowers of medium size, which are semi-
double and center filled with yellow stamens.
Vigorous-growing bush. The beautiful Rugosa
foliage is glossy and healthy. Very free-flowering
with an abundance of small red seeds in the fall.
HYBRID SWEETBRIERS
THE familiar Sweetbrier, or Eglantine, fragrant in its leaves and stems as well as its
flowers, is a native Rose of England — Rosa rubiginosa. Some years ago, Lord
Penzance, an English rosarian, made a number of hybrids with this English Sweet-
brier and sent out a set of notably fine varieties.
Most of these Sweetbriers are of rampant and vigorous growth, requiring abundant
room. They have single or semi-double
flowers which appear only at the time of
spring bloom, but their foliage is excellent
during the whole growing season, and these
subjects are particularly useful for parks,
along driveways and in shrubbery borders,
where each plant can be allowed a wide
spread for its growth and beauty. They
are all completely hardy.
All the Hybrid Sweetbriers are $1 each for strong
field-grown plants
Lady Penzance Rose. See page 57
AMY ROBSART. (Penzance, 1894.) Pos-
sesses all the fragrance that marks the Sweet-
brier. The blooms are medium in size, distinct

MISCELLANEOUS VALUABLE ROSES
GROUPED under this heading are some old and new Roses of much greater importance
and interest to the real Rose-lover than many of the more conventional forms.

THE WILD ROSES, OR ROSE SPECIES
The Rose is a world-wide plant, more than sixty species being recognized as native in
the United States. It is, however, the Old World species that have given rise to our garden
treasures in Teas, Hybrid Teas, Hybrid Perpetuals, and other Roses. Nevertheless, the
species themselves — meaning those that reproduce themselves from seed — are most effective
and important in any broad garden treatment, as well as of great interest for their beauty.
Some of the species are of especial hardiness, and all here described are notably vigorous.
They are admirable for use in the shrubbery border, or to frame in a Rose-garden, or for
parks or driveways.
The Wild and Species Roses need little pruning, but they should be thinned out and the
old wood removed. Long and vigorous shoots should not be shortened, especially in climb-
ing varieties, as these shoots are the most floriferous.
All the varieties not otherwise priced are $1 each, $9 for 10. The varieties priced at 60 cts. each we grow in
large quantities, and special prices by the hundred or thousand will be given on request

PEMBERTON’S ROSES
This class of Roses was originated by the Rev. Joseph H. Pemberton, of England. We
have grouped these together for their more or less similar habit of growth. They are mainly
used as a shrub Rose or as specimen plants on the lawn, being bushy and growing on an
average of from 4 to 7 feet high. The Hybrid Musks are much desired for their peculiar
sweet musk fragrance. Most of the varieties are everblooming, as described, and most of
them are of the cluster type.
These Roses are $1 each for strong field-grown plants
