HARDY HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 
These are specially grown for us by one of the leading rosarians of England where roses develope firm wood 
and fibrous roots. They are much better adapted to our severe and changeable climate than the soft-wooded 
plants grown on the meadows of Holland, so generally sold here, and which so frequently cause disappointment. 
Roses should be planted with the diverging roots at least nine inches below the surface of the ground; the 
soil made firm about them and liberally watered. 
Our collection comprises the most select sorts of all colors and of the finest forms.
