(For Hedges) 
The freest blooming variety in the Eskimo Beauty family. It is 
a strong grower, reaching a height of 4 to 5 feet. Blooms in clusters 
all season long. The individual flower resembles a small red carna- 
tion. An excellent plant for shrubbery planting and for rose hedges. 
How To Grow Roses 
Roses need plenty of sun and good rich 
soil. We have found that they do better 
if planted in beds. The rose bed should 
be top dressed with 2 to 3 inches of cattle 
or sheep manure, and add a cup full of 
bone meal to each plant, then spade un- 
der the whole works to a depth of 10 to 
12 inches, then set the roses. Plant 12 to 
18 inches apart and 3 to 5 inches deeper 
than they grew in the nursery.
