HARDY HYBRID 
PERPETUAL ROSES 
All large flowering, very double, and 
freely blooming, although not quite as 
everblooming as the roses of the Hybrid 
Tea Type. In the Middle West these 
roses come through the winter with a 
light covering, while the Hybrid Tea 
roses should be cut back in the fall and 
covered over winter. I offer the three 
best roses of this class. 
General Jacqueminot crimson 
scarlet, an excellent rose, and very fra¬ 
grant. Wherever you wish a good hardy 
bush rose plant this rose, you will be 
well pleased. 
"Poy,I "NTpTTY’nYi The largest of all 
STallL INcyiUIl roses, the blossoms 
are simply gigantic, fully double, pink 
and very fragrant. The bush is almost 
thornless. An old favorite, I think it will 
always stay in favor. 
Snnw OllPPTl Large, snow white, 
QI1UW blooms very freely. 
Include the Hybrid Perpetual roses in 
your planting, they will give you very 
pleasing results.

Planting 
Instructions 
For winter protection, 
which all Hybrid and 
Baby Rambler Roses 
should have, cut your 
roses back to 8 or 10 
inches from the 
ground. Then apply a 
cover of soil. This is 
to be done when all 
leaves are off. Climb¬ 
ing Roses are simply 
laiddownonthe 
ground and covered 
with leaves or straw.
