OUTDOOR ROSE GROWING 



cut out and necessary thinning done. Plant from 

 twenty-four to thirty inches apart. The roses in this 

 class are generally budded on Manetti, although 

 good results have been obtained on Multiflora, and 

 many will do well on their own roots. 



RUGOSAS AND THEIR HYBRIDS 



The original Rugosas are from Japan and survive 

 the long winters of the most northern of these islands, 

 so that there is no question as to their great hardi- 

 ness. They do very well by the sea, as they are 

 strong enough to stand the heavy winter winds of the 

 coast; they also thrive under hot, sandy conditions. 

 The best of their Hybrids are extremely hardy, and 

 after their bloom is over are attractive on account 

 of the beautiful fruit which they bear.
