roses OUT=OF=THE=ORDINARY and 



Personally, we consider these two of the most interesting and valu- 

 able pages in our Catalog and real Rose lovers will look upon them in the 

 same way. The Rose is a very large family with a great many distant 

 relatives — some of the most extraordinary we offer here; some of them 

 carry with them the fragrance of our Grandmothers' gardens, some are of 

 great historical value. All (except Viridiflora) are entirely hardy and 

 all are easy to grow.

Rosa Rubiginosa 

 This is the True Eglantine, and highly valued for the delightful

 and when once planted will take care of itself. Makes a fine hedge planted 

 two feet apart, or is equally good for a group or single specimen.
