arms covered with 2-in. white to shell-pink flowers. They have had 
no aphids, beetles, mildew or blackspot and the foliage is crisp and 
shiny. They are magnificent and I cannot thank you enough.”

Shrub roses are very useful, rugged plants of great value 
in special places—for instance, on a bank, growing wild 
over a fence, topping a wall. They do not belong in beds 
with other roses. You will find they are extremely adaptable. 
Plant them in groups of two or three, or as single specimens. 
They bloom not intermittently but steadily all summer, and 
best of all—they ask nothing from you in the way of care. 
You need not prune, fertilize or spray them. Just be thank- 
ful for such hardy, sturdy, foolproof landscaping plants.

For maxi pleasure in mini size, try some Miniature Roses. They grow only 10 to 15 
inches tall at most and are true copies of the classic Hybrid Teas. Buds and flowers are 
exquisitely formed, nice and full, but no bigger than a quarter. The tiny leaves, thorns 
and branches are in proportion to the bloom. 
These little roses are amazingly hardy, disease resistant and persistent blooming. Treat 
them like other roses (pruning, spraying, feeding), but plant them in beds of their own 
where you can easily watch their progress from day to day. You will be fascinated with
