Hardy Memorial « Evergreen Roses’ 
Especially recommended for Cemetery Planting 
OMETIMES called the Wichu 
vaiana Roses but appropriately 
classed as‘‘Memorials’’ because 
everywhere acknowledged to be 
the most suitable and satisfactory 
roses one can get for cemetery 
planting. They will climb when 
trained, or if left alone they creep 
along the ground as closely as an 
ivy and make a dense mat of shiny 
dark green foliage. The leaves 
are of leathery texture, practically 
insect proof, and remain green on 
the plants nearly all winter. They 
bloom in profusion during June and 
July, and the single ones bear red 
berries inthe Autumn. A growth 
of 10 feet in a season is not unusual 
and all are entirely hardy, and when 
once planted take care of them- 
selves. They are excellent for train- 
ing over graves or over rough 
ground, rocks or stumps. Some 
prefer them to the Hardy Climbing 
Roses for covering arbors, fences, 
archways, etc., because their foli- 
age is so attractive and stays green 
till midwinter. (See prices below.)
