IRONCLAD RUGOSA ROSES 
For Minnesota, Wisconsin and All Cold Climates 
Rugosa Roses and their hybrids seem just suited for our North American 
climates, as they are so tough and hardy. They make dense, sturdy, compact 
bushes, 6 to 9 feet high, according to variety, and are very ornamental. 
Their dark, rich, leathery foliage is oddly wrinkled, shiny and remarkably 
free from insect pests. Some bloom all summer, others but once, but are 
followed in the autumn with a profusion of beautiful, orange-red or crimson 
fruits. See the illustration in color in ‘How To Grow Roses’’ (pageg). The 
plants are hardy as oaks, and do well in the most trying places—seashore, 
_mountains, or anywhere. On account of the shapeliness of their growth, these 
Roses are especially valuable for use as lawn specimens. Being well branched 
and very symmetrical, they make splendid hedges, having in their favor hardi- 
ness and freedom from insects and disease. The thorny nature of the plants 
helps to make a hedge almost impenetrable. We offer the choicest varieties.
