122 Shrubs for Spring Effects 
Single Roses 
Rosa 
The grace and charm of these beautiful shrubs appear to better effect in the 
informal border or shrubbery than in the rose-garden. In addition to their lovely 
flowers, they possess the merit of fall 
and winter effects with red twigs 
and bright fruit. Other varieties 
blooming in midsummer will be 
found under that heading, while 
the garden Roses are catalogued 
as such. 
Meadow Rose. Rosa blanda. Our 
wild pink Rose, with which the 
roadsides are painted in late May 
and early June, should be used in 
masses for the best effects. 35 cts. 
each, $3 for 10. 
Japanese Rose. Rosa multiflora. A 
profusion of white flowers covers the 
long, arching branches; half-climb- 
ing but fine in the shrubbery. June. 
35 cts. each, $3 for 10. 
Scotch Rose. Rosa spinosissima. Low- 
growing with very prickly brown 
branches. The bright green foliage 
is almost hidden when the large 
sweet flowers of white or blush 
white open in their great clusters; 
the bud of this variety is most 
beautiful. The Scotch Rose is hardy 
in most situations, and for massing is unexcelled. 75 cts. each, $5 for 10. 
Red-leaved Rose. Rosa rubrifolia. Very attractive, deep red-tinged leaves and 
branches; an upright shrub; flowers pink. June. 35 cts. each, $3 for 10. 
Blooms of the Single Rose 
White Kerria Rhodotypos kerrioides 
Japan has given us few shrubs of more merit. Its snow-white flowers are given 
in great profusion, and in May the plant is simply covered with flowers which 
are followed by jet-black seeds. Note should be made that this is a splendid shrub 
for semi-shady positions. Each 1Q 10Q
