ROSA RUGOSA, continued 
succeeded after the failure of many 
other kinds of foliage, due to the 
caustic action of the salt air, has 
led to its general use for seaside 
planting. It is a most desirable 
shrub for groups and hedges. The 
thick, shining foliage is free from 
insect and mildew attacks. Large, 
single, rose-pink flowers borne in 
clusters during the summer are 
followed in autumn by large, bright 
red hips resembling crab-apples. 
We offer this at low rates by the 
hundred, for hedges, seaside and 
cover planting.
