PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.—WHOLESALE PLANT LIST. 5 
DWARF BEDDING ROSES. 
Polyantha or Multiflora Class. 
A class of Roses of much value for bedding purpose, as they form a mass of bloom, 
They are of dwarf habit, and are continuously in flower during the entire season. They 
bloom in numerous clusters of from 25 to 100 flowers in each cluster, the single flowers 
being about 144 inches across, These Polyantha Roses are hardy in this latitude with 
slight protection. They are particularly valuable for planting on the borders of beds of 
taller growing sorts, or on the edge of ‘‘foliage” beds, as they are constantly in bloom, and 
rarely attain more than 10 or 12 inches in height. They are also largely used for dorders 
in cemetery plots, their neat and tasteful appearance commanding attention at first sight.
