Hybrid Perpetual Roses 
This splendid class of vigorous, hardy roses is the result of crossing the 
favorite old garden roses with the less vigorous and less hardy tea roses. This 
crossing has resulted in producing a race of roses which not only bloom freely at 
the usual rose season, but at intervals during the summer and fall. Such favorites 
as the General Jacqueminot, etc., belong to this class. If restricted to a few garden- 
roses, one can safely select them from among the Hybrid-Perpetual class.
