HARDINESS 
Our Rose-list may seem peculiar to you, particularly if you go hunting for Columbia 
or Killarney or some of the good honest Hybrid Tea Roses that are usually found in 
catalogs. But you see, we just can’t “make a go of them” up here in the North Coun- 
try. Perhaps they’ll be all right for a year or two, and then we'll have a winter like 
1933 and there won’t be much left. 
So, instead, we stick to the Species, Hardy Climbers, Shrub Roses and the Hybrid 
Perpetuals. They are as hardy as other Regal Plants, and have just as interesting form 
and flowers. There are good whites, reds, pinks, yellows, singles and doubles, in every 
type of form and shape. Most of them require much less care than the so-called 
“ever-blooming” Roses. It’s just that there aren’t so many to choose from, though 
you can depend on the choice you make.
