Height: Necessarily this is a relative term and will vary for 
different localities. Heights we give are for eastern 
Pennsylvania, where we live. Low growing is 1% to 2 
feet; tall growing is over 3% feet, and everything else 
is in between. If you have a shorter growing season 
than we do, plants will grow lower; if a longer season, 
then taller. 
eS ee 
The marvelous, long-stemmed roses you get froma florist are Hybrid Teas. They come ina wide color range, 
are large and well formed, many richly fragrant, usually long stemmed. All are perfect to cut.

Grandifloras generally grow taller than Hybrid Teas. Their flowers may be somewhat smaller. in long- 
stemmed clusters. They are best planted where their height will be an advantage.
