New Hybrid Rugosa Rose 

 F. J. Grootendorst 



This is a new type of Rose which might properly be called a Rugosa Baby 

 Rambler, it being a cross between Rugosa and the crimson Baby Rambler. 

 Imagine a shrub-like Rugosa Rose covered with trusses of crimson Baby 

 Rambler Roses and you will have a fair conception of this new hybrid variety. 

 It is not a Rose that you want to plant in with your bed of Hybrid-Tea or 

 Hybrid Perpetual Roses, but is valuable to plant as an isolated specimen or in a 

 mass in a bed in an exposed position or among shrubs in the shrubbery border 

 or use it for an everblooming hedge for which purpose it is admirably stdapted. 

 It is absolutely hardy and continues in bloom tmtil late in the fall.

Rosa Hugonis 



This species, recently introduced from China, is unlike any other Rose. It 

 is of shrub-like habit of growth and naturally forms symmetrical bushes 

 about 6 feet high, and the same in diameter, and while not suited to plant 

 in the Rose border, it is an invaluable subject when planted in connection 

 with other shrubs or as single specimens in the garden. 



Its delicate yellow single flowers are produced on long arching sprays early 

 in May, every branch of the previous season's growth becomes lined on both 

 sides to the very tips with these attractive flowers, and after it has finished 

 flowering it remains an attractive decorative bush for the balance of the 

 season; perfectly hardy. Strong two-year-old plants, $1.00 each; $10.00 

 per doz.; $75.00 per 100. 



Prices on dormant plants include delivery to any Postof&oe in the U.S.
