JMNGEE GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE 



HARDY HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 



They are of vigorous, upright growth, have large, bold flowers, frequently measuring 

 5 to 6 inches in diameter, and are deliciously fragrant. These Roses will succeed in any locality 

 and are so hardy that they will live through the severest winters with but a light protection 

 of leaves or coarse manure in the coldest sections. 



Gen'l Jacqueminot. The old standard crim- 

 son Rose, with rich velvety flowers. One 

 of the best Roses of the garden for outdoor 

 culture. 



Giant of Battles. A grand old favorite. One 

 of the best hardy, vivid crimson Roses; 

 large, very double and sweet; recommended 

 for general planting. 



Gloire Lyonnaise. Blooms almost as freely 

 as a Hybrid Tea, with pointed buds and 

 massive flowers, on long, stiff, heavy shoots. 

 Color rich creamy white, passing, when 

 open, to a pale shade of salmon-yellow, 

 deepest at the center. Absolutely hardy 

 everywhere. 



Paul Neyron. The largest Rose of all. Bright, 

 shining pink, very full and double, often 

 with two centers. The standard Rose for 

 the garden in color, size and perfume. 



White American Beauty (Frau Karl Druschki) 

 An extraordinarily strong grower. Large, 

 heavy foliage and magnificent flowers, 

 immense in size and produced with great 

 freedom on long, stiff stems. The color

 yellow or any other shade. Hardy every- 

 where.

 as soon as planted, and continues all 

 through the season, flowers extra large,

 globular; rich, glowing crimson, elegantly 

 flamed with scarlet. Hardy and unusually 

 free bloomer. Highly fragrant.
