Hardy Roses 



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 attrac- 

 tive through the winter. Prune closely the first season only; in subsequent prunings merely remove 

 dead wood. The hybrid varieties produce well-formed double flowers useful for cutting.
