OTHER ROSES 
Most of these come to us direct from one of the best Western growers and 
receive a minimum of handling between the grower and planter, which is im- 
portant. 
All this group should have winter protection. Bank up with earth 8 inches 
or more and cover with any available material, preferably something which tends 
to keep them dry. 
Hybrid Teas (marked H. T.) are the most constant bloomers and finest colors, 
but need best winter protection. They are usually well planted quite close 
together in narrow beds. 
Hybrid Perpetuals (marked H. P.) are hardier and larger growing bushes, 
but not very continuous bloomers through the summer unless pruned heavily 
in spring. 
Polyanthas, or Baby Ramblers are quite hardy but are better with pro- 
tection and are the most continuous blooming of all. Floribundas are especially 
suitable for massing and have considerably larger flowers and bushes than the 
Polyanthas.
