Rugosa Roses and their hybrids seem just suited for our North American climates, as they are so 
tough and hardy. They make dense, sturdy, compact bushes, 6 to 
9 feet high, according to variety, and are very ornamental. Their dark 
rich, leathery foliage is oddly wrinkled, shiny and remarkably free 
from insect pests. Some bloom all summer, others but once, but 
are followed in the autumn with a profusion of beautiful orange-red 
or crimson fruits. See the illustration in color in our $1 Rose Book. 
The plants are hardy as oaks, and do well in the most trying places— 
seashore, mountains, or anywhere. On account of the shapeliness of 
their growth, these Roses are especially valuable for use as lawn 
specimens. Being well branched and very symmetrical, they make 
splendid hedges, having in their favor hardiness and freedom from 
insects and disease. The thorny nature of the plants helps to make a 
hedge almost impenetrable. We offer only the choicest varieties. 
ALICE ALDRICH. We consider this a remarkably fine bush 
Rose for garden planting. It has lovely buds and its large, 
double flowers of clear, bright pink are borne at intervals during
