THE GARDEN MA G A Z I N E 



February, 1914 



Rosa Spinosissima 



WE have again succeeded in getting a stock of this 

 rare and exquisitely lovely hardy single white 

 Rose. With the exception of the marvelous Cher- 

 okee Rose of the South, it is the most beautiful single Rose 

 in the world. The plant is compact and bushy, growing 

 four to five feet high, and in June it is covered with large 

 yellowish-white flowers of indescribable beauty. It should 

 be planted in groups, and like the Rosa Rugosa, it can be 

 used in the shrubbery. Coming from Siberia, it is abso- 

 lutely hardy. Limited stock. 



Extra Strong Plants, 50 cents each, $5.00 per dozen. 

 Good Plants, 30 cents each, $3.00 per dozen. 



We have the largest, finest and most comprehensive stock of Hardy Plants in 

 America, including three hundred varieties of the choicest Peonies, the largest 

 collection of Japanese Iris in the world, and an unsurpassed collection of named 

 Phloxes. Our illustrated catalogue, describing these and hundreds of other Hardy 

 Plants, Trees, Rhododendrons, Azaleas and Shrubs will be sent on request. 



" A PLEA FOR HARDY PLANTS," by J. Wilkinson Elliott, contains much information 

 about Hardy Gardens, with plans for their arrangement We have made arrangements 

 with the publishers of this book to furnish it to customers at a very low price. Particulars 

 on Request.
