HYBRID PERPETUAL 

 ROSES 



Price, except where noted, strong mailing size. 

 15 cts. ; heavy 2-year plants, 40 cts. 



Roses of this class are perhaps the most valu- 

 able for permanent planting, since they are 

 perfectly hardy, show the greatest size of 

 flower and bush, and make the most vigorous 

 growth. Although they are called Hybrid Per- 

 petuals. tbey produce a great number of blooms 

 In their season and then give only scattered 

 hlooms until fall, except In the case of a few 

 varieties which have a second season of beauty 

 near the end of the growing period. For those 

 who desire to plant a Rose that will last a life- 

 time, the Hybrid Perpetual is recommended. 

 As a rule they do not require winter protection, 

 and once planted they increase In size for years 

 with ordinary care.

 mense size, of excellent, bright crimson, flamed

 China-rose, with coppery yellow center, ends of
