JAPANESE ROSES (ROSA RUGOSA.) 
These make large bushes, 3 to 6 feet high, and as far through them, producing 
large fragrant flowers in great profusion, followed by seed pods of a brilliant 
scarlet colour, about the size of walnuts, which are remarkably striking and 
beautiful during the autumn . Partridges and pheasants are very partial to the 
seeds and pulp of this fruit, and belts of these roses should be planted in all game 
preserves. They require little pruning and should be more generally planted 
in shrubberies.
