Hardy Hybrid Perpetual 



ROSES. 



The list offered comprises all the distinct and really valuable 

 shades. Many sorts have been left out, not because they are 

 of no value, but that the sorts listed are superior in size, hardi- 

 ness, vigor, productiveness, or some otlier characteristic that is 

 necessary to make a good Rose. 



Varieties marked with an " * " are grown on their own roots. 

 This class of stock gives much better satisfaction to the general 

 planter than budded or grafted plants; however, some of the 

 finest varieties will not produce good plants on their own roots. 

 In such cases we ofifer the best low-budded stock obtainable, 

 preference being given to home-grown stock budded on Manetti, 

 which is the most desirable for our climate. Care should be 

 taken in planting budded stock to set out deeply, planting them 

 at least two inches below the point where budded, which pre- 

 vents the stock from suckering to a very great extent.
