Everyone loves roses but not everyone has the time to make rose 
growing a real hobby. For them these carefree roses are made to order. 
Our usual advice is to spray or dust rose bushes regularly through the 
whole growing season. However, there are some types that literally can 
be called carefree. Those shown here are examples of such roses. You 
can plant them and forget all about spraying and fertilizing—but you 
can’t forget the bushes because they present such a beautiful picture all 
summer. You can go away on vacation and be sure the plants will be in 
good shape when you come home. 
These are what we call landscaping roses. You can use them instead 
of a privet hedge or evergreen windbreak. (Red Fountain is particularly 
suitable for this purpose.) They can be planted where you would use a 
forsythia or lilac bush. Don’t be afraid to combine them with other 
shrubs if you like, for they are not delicate in any way. You need not 
think of them primarily as rose bushes, to be nurtured carefully, but as 
hardy, free-blooming shrubs for everyday use. They are well able to 
look after themselves. 
To be sure, these carefree roses can also be cut freely for indoor 
bouquets. They bloom so plentifully that you can do that practically | 
every day. The more you cut, the more you get. (See how pretty The
