ROSES FOR SPECIAL PURPOSES 



73 



The Tree roses in the Bagatelle Gardens in Paris are much larger than 

 are customarily seen in American gardens. Some of these are 12 feet high, 

 having been budded with Wichuraianas that weep to the ground. 



Standard or Tree Roses 



Tree roses occupy very little ground space and are quite 

 imposing when planted among shrubbery or perennials. If 

 you arrange them along the sides of a walk they produce an 

 avenue effect (see page 13). A fine effect is produced by 

 planting them among or back of a collection of bush roses, 

 thus making a two-storied rose-bed, as it were. 



It pays to have these come to you while dormant.
