ROSA HUGONIS 



The Golden Rose of China 



An extremely hardy shrubby 

 type of rose that presents a 

 glorious appearance in early 

 spring when the long-stemmed 

 tulips are in bloom. It was 

 discovered in Western China 

 by the Chinese Missionary 

 Father Hugo. Rosa Hugonis 

 develops into an erect shrub 

 about 6 feet high, and in early 

 May, before the leaves are 

 fully developed, the grace- 

 fully arching branches are 

 laden with soft yellow, single, fragrant flowers. It is also 

 extremely attractive when not in bloom for its feathery 

 green foliage. It is ideal for hedge purposes when set 1 Yi 

 feet apart, and it flowers most freely when grown in un- 

 fertilized soil.
