We are Proud to Offer You These Superb 
Hybrid Perpetual ROSES 
“June Roses'” they are often called, and there is not another class 
of Roses that can produce such an immense lot of bloom at one 
time. They are hardy, strong growers, loaded with huge, showy 
blooms in June, some of them even displaying a second crop of 
blooms in late summer and fall. Growing taller and broader than the 
Hybrid Teas, they should be used in the background of Rose beds, 
and should be set 2 or 21/2 feet apart. Every home grounds should 
have at least a small border of our gorgeous Hybrid Perpetuals.

How to Care for Roses 
All Roses flourish best when planted in good, rich, well drain¬ 
ed soil in a sunny location. Set them deeply and firmly, giving 
the tops a Severe pruning. Then, each succeeding spring, the 
Hybrid Perpetuals and Hybrid Teas should be trimmed back 
quite heavily to encourage more blooms. Rugosa Roses will 
require little future trimming except to keep them to the size 
desired. Climbing Roses, when once established, should have 
no trimming whatever in early spring except to prune out 
any dead wood. Any extensive trimming to Climbers should 
be done immediately following the blooming period. 
The Climbing and Rambler Roses are all very hardy but re¬ 
quire winter protection in places of zero temperatures. Lay 
down the canes in late fall and cover with earth, evergreen 
boughs, or leaves, or wrap in burlap. The Hybrid Perpetuals 
and Hybrid Teas should have winter protection, especially in 
the North. Before the ground freezes in the fall, mound the 
earth 8 to 12 inches up around the plant, then cover the ex¬ 
posed tops of the Roses with leaves, straw or other mulching. 
You will have no trouble in wintering even the more tender 
varieties if treated in this manner.
