Hardy Roses 
ROSES, continued 
always bright and clear, and does not fade or 
shade off into dull and undesirable tints. One 
of the most exquisitely colored of Roses, and 
exceedingly beautiful in the bud. In this 
latitude it makes a vigorous, strong bush, and 
bears an abundance of flowers at all seasons.

the other fine varieties.
