Rosa rugosa 



ROSA RUGOSA and HYBRIDS 



These exceedingly hardy Roses are natives of 

 Japan and thrive in almost any soil or situation. 

 They are used extensively for hedging, massing 

 among shrubbery, and seashore planting. The 

 flowers are mostly single, and keep opening until 

 frost, when the bright red seed-pods keep the 

 plantings attractive through the winter. Prune 

 closely the first season only; in subsequent prun- 

 ings merely remove dead wood. The hybrid 

 varieties produce well-formed double flowers 

 useful for cutting.
