THE PIONEER OF A NEW RACE OF HARDY ROSES 
A New Species 
Unlike Any Other Rose 
*“HUGONIS” 
Recently Brought from China. 
Hardy Anywhere in U. S.A. 
“The long, arching sprays of Hugonis make exquisite decorations in early spring.” You could get armfuls of sprays from a bush like this and no one would miss them 
This Rose is a spectacular show in itself. 
Every branch of the previous year’s growth 
becomes lined on both sides, to the very tip, 
with closely set, wide open, single flowers 
like dainty yellow hollyhocks (see front 
cover) and the branches bend over with 
the weight of bloom. 
The long arching sprays make rare and 
exquisite indoor decorations in early spring 
when other flowers are scarce. On a dining 
table they are charming, the delicate yellow 
crepe-like blooms, harmonizing softly with 
the snowy linen and silver, making one think 
of a scene in fairyland. 
This unique species is fine for shrub plant-

OF THE 
ARNOLD ARBORETUM 
Where this wonderful Rose may be 
seen blooming early in May 
“Tt is an upright-growing shrub 
with slender and spreading branches 
on which the fragrant flowers are 
borne in yard-long sprays of soft yel- 
low. As I write in mid-November, 
the foliage is still on the shrub and has 
assumed a dark purple tint.” 
ing and makes a symmetrical bush about 
6 feet in height and the same in diameter 
when fully matured. Picture this exquisite 
bush on your lawn, or at the corners of your 
house, in early spring. Think of the pleasure 
of looking forward daily from about the last 
week in April, when the buds begin to form, 
till the plant is a mass of fairy-like fluffy 
bloom the first week in May. 
When through blooming you will still 
have a most beautiful bush, for the acacia- 
like foliage on arching branches makes a 
most decorative shrub which, as far as we 
are aware, is never touched by disease of 
any kind but is clean and healthy always.
