Shrub Roses, including Rugosas and Their Hybrids 
All Rugosa Roses are 75 cts. each, except where otherwise noted, less quantity discount as shown on page 9 
UGOSA ROSES are particularly valuable for hardi- 
ness, healthiness, and ability to thrive under most 
adverse conditions of soil and climate, withstanding 
almost anything. 
They are distinguished by erect, very spiny stems, 
and by their tough, curiously wrinkled or rugose foliage. 
Particularly valuable for hedges or shrubberies in sea- 
shore gardens and regions where the winters are very 
severe. Many are everbloomers. 
Some of the Hybrids do not have the true Rugosa 
foliage, but this does not mean that they are not as hardy.

pillar Rose growing 5 to 6 feet high. The

between the ever-popular Climber Dr. 
W. Van Fleet and the well-known ever- 
blooming bush Rose Rev. F. Page-Roberts; 
its vigorous, healthy plant habits and 
beautiful foliage are inherited from the 
former and repeat bloom habits from the 
latter. Planted 3 to 4 feet apart in with 
deciduous shrubs or as a solid border by 
itself, the ultimate effect is indeed out of 
the ordinary. Propagation rights reserved,

East Rutherford, N. J. 25 
Nothing could be hardier than the Grootendorst types, 
yet their foliage does not appear to have much Rugosa in 
it. For your guidance we have given what in our opinion 
is the comparative percentage of Rugosa as compared
