WILD ROSES 
They will add beauty to the border, the taller 
kinds for backgrounds, or they may be used for 
edgings and in the mixed shrubbery planting. Of 
course they are eminently fitted for naturalizing. 
Delightful for cutting. Sow seeds as directed 
under “y” in key on page one, and you will find 
them rather easy. See page 61 for additional 
species. All are hardy.
