SPECIAL RO 
The roses featured on this page do not fit into the categories of 
Hybrid Teas, Grandifloras or Floribundas . . . yet for carefree, 
landscaping beauty, these roses are just as important as their 
more glamorous counterparts. From our experience, we have 
found the varieties on this page are at their best when used in 
these ways: For a low compact hedge with good color and foliage, 
use The Fairy; for a low spreading hedge or ground cover, we 
highly recommend Sea Foam; if you need a little more privacy 
or protection, we recommend Robin Hood, Otto Linne or Red 
Glory. Robin Hood is the densest grower, offering an almost 
impenetrable barrier. For a tall hedge, for screening, property 
divider, etc., use Pillar of Fire for its beauty as well as functional 
value. The multiflora we offer here is recommended only for 
screening very large properties, fields or for conservation pur- 
poses. All except multiflora are fine, too, for landscape use as 
everblooming, flowering shrubs. 
Hb Hybrid Shrub Rose. (Ernest Schwartz.) Plant 
Ma WL Pat. 2463. One of the most adaptable, most re- 
markable and most useful new roses of all time. It is unique. 
The lovely blooms come in masses of medium size to large clusters 
or trusses. The small, well-formed, pointed buds open to 2 to 3 
inch double blooms of pure white that age gradually to a delicate, 
lovely cream color. Sometimes, in cool weather, the edges of the 
petals are tinged with pink. Sea Foam is a tough, hardy, vigorous 
rose and almost completely free of any disease. You simply plant 
it and forget it—except to admire its beauty. Sea Foam grows 2 
to 3 feet high and as many feet wide. The blooms come contin- 
uously all season long in foam-like clusters on a sea of green. 
There is also a light, but intriguing fragrance of spice. Sea Foam’s 
use is limited only by your imagination. Use it as a specimen plant 
in a featured spot; as a border or a broad low hedge; tied to a 
trellis or fence it makes a fine white pillar rose. It’s also perfect for 
ground cover in a sunny location or on a bank. You can plant 
it at the top of a wall, draping over, to make a graceful weeping 
rose as in the illustration below. Also see it as a tree rose, illus- 
trated on the back cover of this catalog. 
$3 ea.—3 or more, $2.65 ea.—25 or more, $2.40 ea.
