ROSE SPECIES 
These are very interesting for groups, or individual 
specimens; fruits in about all cases are attractive 
following the flowers. 
Rosa Hugonis. The earliest of all roses to flower, 
usually about May 22 near Boston, a strong grower 
and every branch is smothered with soft yellow 
flowers, has been very heavily planted but has a 
bad knack of dying out wholly or in part during 
midsummer. 
Rosa Rouietti. The smallest of all roses, fine for pot 
culture or the Rock Garden, small double pink 
flowers all summer. .50-.75 to $1.00 each. 
Rosa Rubrifolia. Striking reddish leaves and pink 
flowers. 
Rosa Rubiginosa (Sweetbriar). Very fragrant foliage, 
small flowers and oval fruit. 
Rosa Setigera. The “‘Prairie Rose” carries large bright 
pink clusters of flowers rather late in the season. 
Rosa Zanthina. A fine Chinese species, more depend- 
able than Hugonis, blooming a little later. 
Spinosissime Altaica. (Scotch rose.) Grand old va- 
riety, lovely in both flower and fruit.

Harison’s Yellow. Introduced by Harison over 100 
years ago. Carries large semi-double golden yellow 
flowers in great profusion a fortnight after 
Hugonis. 
Skyrocket. (Kordes, 1934.) A striking new evergreen 
shrubbery rose, carries very large clusters of bloom 
all summer of a rich red color, makes a fine plant 
for the shrubbery, a forerunner of a new race.

per doz. 
OLD FASHIONED ROSES 
We have limited stocks of a few of the very 
old Roses like Cabbage, York & Lancaster, Damask 
and one or two others. Price $1.50 each. We will 
gladly send names of such varieties as we have, on 
application. 
STANDARD OR TREE ROSES 
Of these we have for some years carried moderate 
stocks. As the tops are well elevated and get a good 
circulation of air they are less susceptible to black 
spot than the dwarf hybrid teas. It is good policy to 
wrap some sphagnum moss about the budded por- 
tions in spring and keep this moist until plants are 
well started. Neither the numbers nor the varieties 
of these standard roses are numerous and early ap- 
plication should be made for any needed. 
Price of Standard Roses, $3.50 each, $37.50 doz. 
List of varieties furnished on application. We can 
supply all the popular colors.
