Moss Roses. 
Moss Roses stand alone in picturesque beauty, different and distinct from all others. Their opening buds, 
half covered with delicate, clinging moss of fairy-like texture, are very generally admired. The plants are 
strong, vigorous growers, perfectly hardy, and therefore justly esteemed as desirable for outdoor culture in the 
open ground. Most varieties bloom but once in a season, and usually not the first vear, but the flowers and 
buds are very handsome. They remain in bloom a long time, and are highly prizedVherever beautiful Roses 
are known. Moss Roses like rich ground, and are much improved in beauty and fragrance by liberal manuring 
and good cultivation, but they bear hardships and neglect well, and always bloom profusely Being difficult 
and slow of propagation, the price is higher than for other Roses.
