The Rose—Queen of Flowers 
In all collections of flowering ornamental shrubs Roses occupy first place. The wide range of color, 
shape, and size of the blooms and the diversity and character of the foliage give it a wide range foi 
decoration. When added to these qualifications are ease of culture, quick and ample response in 
blossoms, it is not to be wondered at that the Rose has been aptly termed the “Queen of Flowers.”
