HARDY HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 



The Hybrid Perpetuals are considered the most valuable of all Roses. They are fully as beautiful 

 as the Ever-bloomers, but entirely different, and should be includfed in every collection. 



They are hardy, vig-orous growers, particularly valuable for planting in the Middle and Northern 

 States, because not easily injured by the Winter. They are valuable also for the South, where they suc- 

 ceed almost equally well. 



Immense Flowers. — Many of the Hybrid Perpetual Flowers are of immense size, frequently from 

 five to six inches in diameter ; they are exceedingly fragrant and of the most gorgeous and dazzling colors 

 except yellow. Though called " PERPETUAL," they are not such early and constant bloomers as the Ever- 

 blooming Roses. Some varieties do not bloom the first year, but grow strong and get ready for the next. 

 When once established, however, they bloom freely at usual time early in the season, and many varieties 

 continue to bloom at short intervals during the Summer and Autumn months. Like all valuable flowers, 

 they are much improved in size and beauty by rich ground and good cultivation. 



When you plant Hybrid Perpetuals you may be sure of having- Roses every year with- 

 out further trouble. They require but little attention and bloom regularly, and though they are among 

 THE HARDIEST OF ALL Roses and may be expected to bear any reasonable degree of cold without 

 injury, alight covering of leaves, straw or evergreen branches put on before Winter begins is. always an 

 advantage in exposed situations. 



Plant in Open Ground. — The Hybrid Perpetuals should always be planted in open ground ; they 

 are not suitable for house culture — the Ever-bloomers, Hybrid Teas and Fairy Roses are best for this 

 purpose. 



Hybrid Perpetuals do very nicely set with Shrubbery in Borders, or in Masses or Beds 

 on the Lawn. They are used very extensively by the most intelligent planters. A circular bed 3)^ 

 feet in diameter holds 27 Roses ; price $3. A 4>2-foot bed, 38 Roses ; price $4. A 53^ -foot 

 bed, 55 Roses ; price $5.50. An 8-foot bed, 75 Roses ; price $7.50. A 10-foot bed, 100 

 Roses; price $10. Sent carefully by Mail or Express to all points. Safe delivery g-uar-
