 RED SHRUBS 



CALYCANTHUS FLORIDTJS, see Sweet-scented Shrub. 



HONEYSUCKLE. Scarlet or Trumpet; also known as Woodbine 

 (Lonicera sempervirens) . 4-8 ft. An evergreen twining variety that is 

 late in dropping its leaves in the North. It blooms throughout the en- 

 tire season in clusters of brilliant scarlet tubular flowers, and though it 

 has no fragrance is the most desirable and the handsomest of cultivated 

 Honeysuckles. If heavily pruned looks almost like a bush against a 

 wall. For culture, see Honeysuckle Shrubs, July. 



ROSE. Crimson Rambler. A comparatively new hybrid climbing 

 rose that has become a general favorite. It makes a vigorous growth and 

 bears many close clusters of deep red flowers less than 2 in. across. 

 While it is hardy it thrives best in northern latitudes when trained against 

 a south wall or given a sheltered position. 



ROSE. Anne de Diesbach. Hybrid Perpetual of vigorous upright 

 growth with large fragrant carmine red blooms. Flowers again in the 

 autumn if given a midsummer pruning. 



ROSE. Camille De Rohan. A hybrid Perpetual of vigorous growth 

 and good foliage; blooms freely with deep velvety crimson fragrant 

 flowers. Does best in cool weather and is liable to burn in the sun, and 

 should be given a sheltered position away from the hot afternoon sun. 

 Said to be the best of all the dark roses. 



ROSE. Jacqueminot. A Hybrid China of long-established excellence 

 with large rich deep red fragrant blooms. One of the most satisfactory 

 roses grown. 



ROSE RUGOSA (Rosa rugosa rubrd). A hardy variety making a spread- 

 ing vigorous growth with glossy foliage. A free and continuous bloomer 

 in both single and double varieties. The growth is rather large for an 

 ordinary rose bed, as it sometimes attains 4-5 ft. in a single season and 

 also spreads badly at the root. 



ROSE. Lancaster or Semi-double Red or Red Garden Rose. There 

 is no local name for this survival of former days, which we find running 

 wild about the old abandoned house sites in our neighborhood. But I 

 am led to believe it is a form of the old Damask rose brought originally 

 from Persia and adopted by the English House of Lancaster as its em- 

 blem; until it is disproved I shall call it the Lancaster rose. Under cul-
