Wichuraiana 
The trailing or creeping growth of these Roses 
makes them especially useful for covering ter- 
races or trellises. They are hardy and grow well 
in the poorest soil. The foliage is thick and leath- 
ery, shining as if varnished, and keeps bright 
until late in the winter. The flowers are abun- 
dant and retain their perfection for a long time. 
These Roses are used to a considerable extent 
for cemetery planting.

fragrant; flowers double and large — often over

double, produced in clusters on the side shoots, 
single clusters often containing as many as 10 
or 12, covering the plant and standing well 
above the foliage.
