This new type of Rose gives us two of the world's 

 most valuable plants for use about the home grounds. 

 For they are medium small, refined shrubs that bloom 

 all season. Their growth is vase or mound-shaped 

 densely branching, thick and bushy. Use, for instance 

 in place of the more common Barberry or Bridal Wreath 

 for a planting of greater distinction and constant lovely 

 bloom from June to freezing weather. 



^MARTHA LAMBERT. An everblooming Shrub 

 Rose with large clusters of intense scarlet, single 

 blooms like heads of phlox. Hardy, healthy and 

 attractive. Grows about 3 feet high and 4 or more 

 feet across. $1.50 ea.; 3 or more, $1.30 ea. 

 *THE FAIRY. See illustration. One of the finest 

 and most useful plants ever introduced. A regular 

 "Bus3^-Lizzie" for bloom. Rosettes of seashell-pink 

 come in large sprays, continually. A medium low, 

 spreading bush with small, shiny, attractive foliage 

 that seems to be proof against disease or neglect. 

 It grows here to 4 feet high and broader than high, 

 but can be kept lower. Rated 9.3 out of 10 by the 

 American Rose Society, the highest score of any 

 Polyantha or Floribunda type Rose. $1.50 ea.; 

 3 or more, $1.30 ea. 



ROSES FOR LIVING FENCES 



A number of different kinds of Roses are suitable for 

 "living fences." For a farm or large property, the wild 

 Rosa multifiora makes a splendid, inexpensive fence 

 of the hedgerow type. It grows tall and broad. Write 

 for prices for spring planting. 



For smaller gardens, we suggest everblooming shrub 

 Roses or Floribundas for a low living fence, and climbing 

 Roses for a tall one. A combination of climbers trained 

 on wires, with The Fairy planted between, is excellent. 

 Plant climbers 6 to 8 feet apart, or even more, and a few 

 plants go a long way. Rosa Hugonis is ideal for a 6-foot- 

 high living fence.

ittHUGONIS (The Golden Rose of China). Beau 

 tiful plants, 6 feet in height and spread, are covered tc

 3 or more, $1.30 ea.
