i : Rees *HARISON’S YELLO!W. This 
Te | igum| Rose appears to have been produced 
by crossing the Austrian Briar and 
Rosa spinosissima. It was introduced 
about 1830 and is steadily in demand, 
as It 1s perfectly hardy anywhere in the 
United States. The cheery yellow Rose 
of the old-time door-yards. Tough, 
wiry, almost indestructible, it is an 
unspeakable delight when covered 
with its sparkling yellow flowers about 
the middle of May, set amid fragrant 
foliage. It hates the knife; do not 
prune it, except to take out dead canes. 
A good shrub, made better by its small 
healthy foliage. Plant where you have 
plenty of room for it to spread. It 
makes a lovely specimen bush when set 
by itself on a Jawn or when planted in 
some corner where it is not too shady. 
Brilliantly showy when planted among 
shrubs. (See ulustration.) $1 each.

HYBRID SWEETBRIARS 
- These hybrids are crosses made by Lord Penzance between the common Sweet- 
briar and other Roses. The foliage is 
pungently perfumed and the flowers, pro- 
duced in great abundance, are of the most 
beautiful tints. They should be cut back the 
first season after planting, after which they 
only require thinning to keep them in shape.

large, single flowers of dark, velvety crimson, 
delightfully fragrant. Very free in bloom. 
$1 each. 
*LADY PENZANCE. One of the 
prettiest of this class. It is a lovely soft 
coppery tint and the flowers come im great 
profusion. A vigorous grower. Makes fine 
specimens. $1 each. 
*LORD PENZANCE. Single flowers, 
fawn and ecru color, tinted with lemon. 
Makes a beautiful hedge where a “wild” 
effect is wanted. Plant on the edge of a 
woods or among shrubbery. $1 each.
