BRAND'S HARDY ROSES 
Hybrid Rugosa Roses 
These are the Roses for the North Country 
2-yr. No. 1 plants, postpaid, 45c each. 
Where a real hardy Rose is wanted, there are none hardier than the 
Roses carrying rugosa blood. They do as well in the cold Dakotas as on 
the Gulf of Mexico. They carry bloom all summer and big red seedpods 
in winter. For these reasons they are being used more and more in 
foundation plantings, working into hedges, shrub borders, etc. _ 
AGNES. A new Rugosa Hybrid. Absolutely hardy. Very glossy foliage. 
Flowers bright rich yellow and of good size. Large bushes, 65c. 
AMELIE GRAVEREAUX. Another new sort. Brilliant bright red. Won¬ 
derful contrast with wonderful foliage. 
BELLE POITEVINE. Splendid pink rugosa. A light pink flushed with 
deeper pink. 
HANSA. The standard double Red Rugosa. Very large deep reddish 
violet. Most rugged and thrifty of all. Much used for hedges and 
large mass plantings. 
SIR THOMAS LIPTON. Double pure white. The very best of the double 
white rugosas. 
HUGONIS ROSE 
The New Golden Wild Rose from China. 
In the Hugonis Rose we have one of the finest 
floral introductions of recent times. This Rose 
comes to us from China and is perfectly hardy, 
growing on our grounds in the most exposed 
places without any winter protection. The bush 
throws up many branches to a height of six to 
eight feet, sending slender sprays in all direc¬ 
tions which arch gracefully beneath great loads 
of bright yellow single flowers of the most 
exquisite beauty. 
Strong, 2-yr. No. 1 plants, 50c each; 10 for 
$4.50. 
HYBRID RUGOSA 
txoso h un i>in.\ 
F. J. GROOTENDORST. (Baby Rambler). Rugosa 
Cross. True rugosa foliage. Double, bright 
crimson, borne in large clusters like the Baby 
Rambler, from May continuously until No¬ 
vember. One of the most valuable of all Roses 
in the North. In the colder parts of the coun¬ 
try it is hard to get a continuous bloom of 
Roses, but these Grootendorst Roses are true 
everbloomers. The old blossoms should be 
kept trimmed out as they pass and the bushes 
will be covered with a mass of clusters of little 
Roses an inch or more in diameter of a bril¬ 
liant red all summer way up to frost. 
Medium-size plants, 35c each; 10 for $3.00.
