IT ISN’T A ROSE - GARDEN WITHOUT HYBRID PERPETUALS 
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 
P ERFECTION in size of flower, fragrance, disease-resistance, and 
strength of growth predominate in this class, and while most 
varieties flower only in June and July, many will repeat through¬ 
out the summer and fall, a few even repeating heavily enough to rival 
some of the Hybrid Teas. Varieties which repeat are indicated by an 
(R). 
Their uses are varied. They can be grown as bedding Roses at a 
hejght of 3 to 4 feet, or allowed to grow into shrubs up to 6 feet in 
height. A few of the more vigorous growers can be trained as pillars, 
giving remarkable displays of bloom in June and July; also by pegging 
down the long canes they can be used as specimen plants on lawns. 
covering considerable area, and flowering at every bud on the stem. 
These varieties are indicated with an asterisk (*). 
Planting Distance: Average 30 to 36 inches. 
Pruning: If desired as a bedding plant, cut down to 4 to 6 eyes. For 
shrub type, 2 feet or over, as desired. For pillar Rose, allow to grow to 
desired height, then cut out only dead wood or enough to keep plant 
within bounds. 
Summer Pruning: Hybrid Perpetuals sometimes outgrow their 
allotted room, in which case cut the canes back to 4 feet. We liave 
noted that this summer pruning encourages more repeat blooming.
