I N OUR regular catalogue we describe more than 
one hundred and thirty species of wild or “native” 
Roses. These are the original, natural types just as 
the Creator left them. Many are superb planting- 
material for naturalizing in meadows, roadsides, banks, 
and in the borders among other shrubbery. 
Among them are such handsome things as Hugonis , 
altaica , Moyesi , and fcetida bicolor or Austrian Copper. 
Included with the species is the beautiful trailing 
hybrid, Max Graf , with brilliant pink blooms, and its 
sister, repens alba , a very fine white-flowering trail¬ 
ing Rugosa. 
We grow about one hundred and fifty varieties of 
Hybrid Perpetuals, many of them very old and unob¬ 
tainable elsewhere. These will be found in our regular 
catalogue. A careful study of our catalogue will reveal 
many Roses which can be put to unusual use, very 
different from the ordinary, formal Rose-garden. Nu¬ 
merous climbers can be induced to assume a trailing 
habit, admirably adapted for naturalistic use, and spe¬ 
cially happy effects may be achieved by using the Pen¬ 
zance Sweetbriers or the everblooming, half-climbing 
types originated by Captain Thomas, the Rev. J. H. 
Pemberton, and Herr Peter Lambert. We respectfully 
urge anyone who wishes to use Roses in this manner to 
study our catalogue for suggestions.
