SINGLE ROSES 
OSGS by Bohhink & Atkins 
Single Roses 
The Single Everblooming Roses have a chaste beauty that appeals strongly to Rose fanciers. 
They are often called “Irish Singles,” although they are not all of Irish origin. To enjoy them indoors, 
cut the buds when the color first shows and let them open in the house. They will then retain their 
rich colors and last many days. They are ideal boutonnieres.
