The Hardy Memorial Rose, 2084_wcnurarana. 
T is difficult to conceive anything more appropriate, beautiful and enduring 
for covering graves and plots in cemeteries than the Hardy Memorial 
Rose. It creeps along the ground as closely as an Ivy,.growing ten feet 
in one season and forming a dense mat of very dark green, lustrous foliage. 
The flowers are produced in lavish profusion, in clusters, on the ends of 
the short side branches, after the June Roses are past, from the first week in 
July throughout the month, and sparingly for the rest of the season. They 
are single, pure white, with a golden-yellow disc, 5 to 6 inches in circumfer- 
ence, and have the strong fragrance of the Banksia Roses. The contrast be- 
tween the satiny-white of the petals and the golden-yellow disc is sharp and 
pleasing, and is one of the distinctive charms of the beautiful Hardy Memos= 
rial Rose, and they fairly cover the entire plant when in bloom. (See cut.)
