T^EW JA.PAN ROSE APPLE Rt BR \. 



New Japan Rose Apple. 



The True Fruit=bearing Variety. 



This is the True Fruit-bearing Variety of the Rosa 

 Rugosa, or Hardy Japan Rose, which we are 

 sure will prove an agreeable surprise to all who plant 

 it. The Ne'w Japan Rose Apple is a handsome, 

 erect-growing bushy Shrub, making a fine compact 

 head, covered with large glossy green leaves, having 

 a curious wrinkled or leathery appearance which adds 

 very much to their attractiveness. It bears a profu- 

 sion of I?-gew'ide open single Roses, four or five inches 

 in diameter, pure wliite, red or pink, according to 

 variety, and very beautiful; the flowers are followed by 

 elegant crimson and golden fruit, bcn^ne in clusters, and 

 as large as good-sized Crab Apples ; tlie fruit is eatable, 

 and many people are quite fond of them ; they have a pleasant 

 subacid flavor, and may be made into pies or tarts if desired. 

 The tree bears both flowers and fruit at the same time, and for 

 several months during the season is an object of rare beauty 

 that every one who has room will like to have. It is perfectly 

 hardy, needs no protection, and seems entirely exempt from 

 all kinds of insects. It is one of the handsomest and most 

 striking ornamental Shrubs, and is always greatly admired. 

 Be sure and get the genuine ; there are several varieties 

 that do not bear fruit. Ours are grown from Fruit-bearing 

 Trees on our own grounds.
