Hardy Memorial or Wichuraiana Roses 



WILL BLOOM LUXURIANTLY IN OUR COLDEST CLIMATE 



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 in the autumn. Entirely hardy, and when once planted take 

 care of themselves. They are excellent for training over graves (hence called Memo- 

 rial Roses) or over rough ground, rocks, stumps or banks.
