THE DEPENDABLE HARDY JUNE BLOOMERS 
This family of Roses are perfectly at home in the North because they are 
very hardy, though winter protection will not hurt them a bit. A few of them, 
like Frau Karl Druschki, Mrs. John Laing, George Arends, and some others, 
do bloom again in the autumn or late summer, but the majority do not deserve 
the name Perpetual as to bloom. No words, however, can describe their 
appearance in June, when they burst like silent fireworks, glorifying the 
garden with a profusion of giant, fragrant Roses, radiant in white and red and 
pink. There are no reliable yellows. 
This class is not so liable to black-spot as are the Pernetianas, but some 
kinds, like General Jacqueminot, Ulrich Brunner, and Magna Charta, and 
even Frau K. Druschki, will be bothered with both mildew and black-spot 
if these diseases are prevalent near by and unchecked. 
During the weeks of June and early July, the Hybrid Perpetuals produce 
far more flowers than any everblooming sort, and almost all of them can be 
made to bloom in the fall by proper pruning and feeding, but they are alto- 
gether worth while for their unique June splendor alone. In this class are 
found the noblest red Roses, filled to the brim with true Rose perfume, and 
old varieties as rich in their hert-
