Hardy Memorial, or Wichuraiana Roses 
WILL BLOOM LUXURIANTLY IN OUR COLDEST CLIMATE 
They will climb when trained, or if left alone they creep along the ground as 
closely as an ivy and make a dense mat of shiny dark green foliage. The leaves 
are of leathery texture, practically insect proof, and remain green on the plants 
nearly all winter. They bloom in profusion during June and July, and the single 
ones bear red berries in the autumn. Entirely hardy, and when once planted 
take care of themselves. They are excellent for training over graves (hence called 
Memorial Roses) or over rough ground, rocks, stumps or banks.
