The Moss Rose is a strong, vigorous grower, perfectly hardy, 

 and therefore justly esteemed as very desirable for outdoor culture 

 in open ground. Most varieties bloom but once in the season, 

 and usually not the first year, but the flowers and buds are very 

 large and handsome; they remain in bloom a long time, and are 

 highly prized wherever beautiful Roses are known. Moss Roses 

 like rich ground, and are much improved in beauty and fragrance 

 by liberal manuring and good cultivation, but they bear hardship 

 and neglect well, and always bloom profusely. They are suitable 

 for planting with shrubbery and other plants in beds and borders, 

 and also singly in lawn or dooryard.
