HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 
This class of roses is admirably suited for garden culture, for the formation 
of Rose beds, hedges and permanent plantations, where hardy varieties of 
Roses are desired. They are of easy culture, and luxuriate in a deep, rich 
soil. They are benefited by a mulching of leaves or strawy manure placed 
around the roots in the fall of the year. Prune according to the habit of 
growth, cutting back close all weak, shoots, and shortening the long canes to a 
convenient length.
