Hardy Memorial « Evergreen Roses c$ 
Especialiy recommended for Cemetery Planting i 
OMETIMES called the Wichu- 
Ss yvaiana Roses but appropriately 
classed as ‘‘Memorials’’ be- 
cause 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 in- 
sect proof ‘and remain green on the 
plants nearly all w inter. They 
bloom in profusion during June and 
July and the single ones bear red 
berries ia the 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 
training 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.)
