HARDY HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 
The Hybnd Perpetuals are considered the most valuable of all Roses, because they bear the largest, sweetest and most brilliantly 
colored flowers, and are so hardy and vigorous they live over winter with slight protection, and continue to bloom regularly from i 
year to year. Their grand flowers are of all shades of red, crimson, scarlet, pink and white, but no yellows. They thrive and bloom 
finely in all sections of the country, and should generally be planted in the open ground, as but few varietes are suitable for house! 
culture. Some kinds do not bloom till the second year, but when fully established bloom regularly at the usual time and occasionally I 
during the summer and fall months. Though called “Perpetual,” they are not constant bloomers, except a few as offered on page 36, 
but are the finest and most beautiful of all hardy Roses.
