The hardiest and most satisfactory type of roses 
for this latitude. The varieties we offer are the best 
of their color, and of proved hardiness that will 
thrive in any ordinary garden soil. 
In pruning out, cut all weak growth and cut 
back the strong canes to within nine inches of the 
ground for large flowers, but if quantity is desired, 
leave the canes two or three feet high according to 
strength,
