VARIOUS ROSES 
Pemberton’s Roses 
A class of Roses originated in England by the late Rev. Joseph H. Pemberton. These, are hybrids of 
Rosa moscbata, the Musk Rose, and are principally used as Pillar or Shrub Roses. They grow 5 to 8 feet 
high, bloom more or less all through the growing season, and would be widely planted if they were better 
known. They flower on old wood and also on wood of the eurrent season, which adds to their value and 
interest, and the only pruning neeessary is to thin out old wood oeeasionally. 
These Roses are $1 each, for strong, field-grown plants
