POLYANTHA AND SINGLE ROSES. 
The letter directly following the name in this section signifies to what class the rose belongs— 
P. for polyantha ; S., single ; hybrid sweet briar. 
The polyanthas of dwarf habit produce compact clusters of charming miniature flowers, and are 
persistent bloomers. They are lovely bedders, and most useful for edgings or borders round beds of 
the stronger growing H.P.’s and teas. They form charming specimens in pots for conservatory 
decoration. The single roses in this section are principally suitable to grow as “ pillar ” or climbers, and 
are remarkable for their charming single flowers, which are produced in immense quantities.
