-A-The Fairy. Shrub Rose that requires no spraying.

Bright yellow, cup-shaped flowers about 2 inches 

 across stud the branches of this fine little shrub all 

 summer long, from late June into October. It will 

 eventually grow to 3 or 4 feet in mild climates. Farther 

 north, it is root hardy, growing about 18 inches tall if 

 the top freezes back, and blooming just as well.

 now offered in the U. S. for the first time. $1.45 ea.; 

 3 for $4 



EVERBLOOMING SHRUB ROSES 



Here are two of the world's best plants for bringing all- 

 season bloom to your garden. They are medium-sized, 

 refined shrub Roses that take little care and bloom ALL 

 SUMMER AND FALL. Even early frosts do not stop them. 

 They bloom right through, along with the hardy chrysanthe- 

 mums! (And are lovely with them.) They make most at- 

 tractive accent plants, mass plantings and dog-proof hedges, 

 if planted close.

 with large clusters of intense scarlet, single blooms like 

 heads of phlox. Hardy, healthy and attractive. Grows 3 or 

 4 feet high and as broad. $1.50 ea.; 3 or more, $1.30 ea.

 most useful plants ever introduced. A regular "Busy- 

 Lizzie" for bloom. Rosettes of seashell-pink come in large

ROSES FOR LIVING FENCES 



New Everblooming Shrub, Hypericum, Hidcote 



A number of different kinds of Roses are suitable for "living 

 fences." For a farm or property with space to spare, the wild 

 Rosa multiflora makes an inexpensive fence of the hedgerow type. 

 It grows verv tall and broad. 



1-year plants: 25 for $2.85; 100 for $9; 500 for $32.50, ppd. 

 Write for prices on larger quantities and smaller sizes for farm use. 



For smaller gardens, multiflora Roses would soon outgrow 

 their welcoine or need too much pruning. Instead, use shrub 

 Roses, Floribundas, or climbing Roses trained on wires. 

 ^HUGONIS. (The Golden Rose of China.) This is a shrub 

 Rose that is ideal as a 6-foot-high living fence, or singly as a 

 specimen shrub. Graceful vase shape, covered with brilliant 

 vellow, single flowers in early May. $1.50 ea.; 3 or more,
