Shrub Roses 
RUGOSA ROSES 
These Rugosa Roses make strong bushes 4 to 6 
feet high. Leaves dark green. Rugosa are not af¬ 
fected by insects or disease. Flowers single, some¬ 
times more than 2 inches across, very showy. Fruit 
brick red, sometimes 1 inch across, very ornamental.

$5.00 per 12. 
MAX GRAF. Large single flowers of shining pink. 
Prostrate and trailing, with glossy wrinkled foliage. 
Fine for rock gardens. 
PINK GROOTENDORST. Very charming pink var 
riety of the popular F. J. Grootendorst. New. 
F. J. GROOTENDORST—H. Pol.-Rug. (De Goey, 
1918). This is a new type which might be called a 
Rugosa Baby Rambler, being a cross between 
Rugosa and the Crimson Baby Rambler. Imagine 
a shrub-like Rugosa covered with trusses of Crimson 
Baby Rambler Roses. It is absolutely hardy and 
continues in bloom until late in the fall. 
BRIAR ROSES 
ROSE HUGONIS—New Golden Chinese Briar. 
This species, recently introduced from China, is 
unlike any other Rose. It is of shrub-like habit of 
growth and naturally forms symmetrical bushes 
about 6 feet high, and the same in diameter. Its 
delicate yellow, single flowers are produced on long 
arching sprays early in May, every 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 at¬ 
tractive decorative bush for the balance of the sea¬ 
son; perfectly hardy. 50c each; $5.00 doz. 
Hardy Climbing Everblooming Roses 
Something new in Climbing Roses. We believe the following are the best of this type. The New 
Dawn will bloom freely the first year. 
CL. PRESIDENT HOOVER. Cl.H.T. Vigorous, 
climbing sport of President Herbert Hoover with 
same flower. 2-yr., heavy plants, 75c each; $7.50 per 
doz., prepaid. 
CL. RADIANCE. Cl.H.T. Climbing sport of 
Radiance. Excellent pink Climber similar to parent. 
2-yr., heavy plants, 60c each, $6.00 per doz., prepaid. 
CL. RED RADIANCE. Cl.H.T. Vigorous, climbing 
sport of Red Radiance. 2-yr., heavy plants, 60c each, 
$6.00 per doz., prepaid. 
THE NEW DAWN 
The Everblooming Dr. Van Fleet 
U. S. Plant Patent No. 1 
A counterpart of the beautiful and popular flesh 
pink Rose, Dr. Van Fleet, embodying all its fine 
qualities but having the added advantage of blooming 
perpetually throughout the season. The New Dawn 
is equally valuable having the same long, pointed, 
flesh pink buds and double flowers but the blooms 
are produced continuously throughout the summer 
and fall months which increases its value consider¬ 
ably. As the flowers are carried on fine, long stems 
it makes as fine a cifl flower as e^'^rden Rose. Strong, 
2-year-old plants. $1.50 each; $15.00 per doz. 
Roses have become the Nation's most popular flower. We are handling a very select 
list of varieties.
