These are roses of any of the previous sorts, that are budded, or grafted, on the free 

 or cultivated stock of the Dog or Briar rose, four to five feet from the ground, and form 

 fine dwarf trees ; and when properly cultivated and cared for are a fine novelty and 

 should be in every well-regulated lawn. Should be removed to the cellar, pit or green- 

 house during the winter. In this shape we offer only the Hybrid Perpetual or hardy 

 class. We have them in white, the different shades of pink, red and crimson.
