ILGENFRITZ MONROE NURSER / 
POLYANTHA ROSES 
These are dwarf roses, growing eighteen to twenty four 
inches tall and never more than two feet wide, producing clusters 
of blooms in great profusion from early in the season until severe 
frost. Pruning is not necessary; simply remove the past season 
flower stems. They are finding favor in foundation plantings as 
well as in beds and shrub borders.

RUGOSA and MISCELLANEOUS ROSES 
This type of rose is often referred to as a bush rose. It grows 
larger and in shrub form. Most varieties produce masses of single 
flowers followed by attractive red fruits. The plants are very 
hardy and will grow in almost any type of soil, requiring very 
little attention except for the removal of wornout canes. 
They are useful for mass plantings, in the shrub border and 
planting on slopes as ground covers.
