single but very free; beautiful foliage. 
Rubiginosa (Sweetbriar). Well-known, old-fashioned 
aromatic rose of gardens; flowers bright pink. 
Rosa Hugonis 
This species, recently introduced from China, is unlike 
any other Rose. It is of shrub-like habit of growth and 
naturally 7 forms symmetrical bushes about 6 feet high, 
and the same in diameter, and while not suited to plant in 
the Rose border, it is an invaluable subject when planted in 
connection with other shrubs or as single specimens in the 
garden. 
Its delicate y 7 ellow single flowers are produced on long 
arching spray's early in May 7 , every 7 branch of the previous 
season’s growth becomes lined on both sides to the very 
tips with these attractive flowers, and after it has finished 
flowering it remains an attractive decorative bush for the 
balance of the season; perfectly 7 hardy. 
Standard or Tree Roses 
These ornamental Tree Roses are necessary 7 for the com¬ 
pletion of a Rose-garden. They relieve the flat appear¬ 
ance of all bush Roses together, and give the flowers a 
certain individuality. 
It is necessary 7 to give Standard Roses some support, 
and a stake about the same thickness as the Rose-stem 
should be used. This should be fixed on the south or 
sunny side, in order to afford some protection to the stem 
from the heat of the sun. 
Our stock is budded on the extremely hardy Rugosa 
stems.
