protection. 

BELLE POITIVINE—A beautifully form- 
ed, vigorous rose of attractive foliage. 
A free and continuous bloomer of large, 
double bright pink flowers borne in 
clusters. 
BLANC DE COUBERT — Snow white 
blooms, double and fragrant, and ar- 
ranged in clusters. In form it closely 
resembles the Hansa, and like that 
variety is excellent for hedges. Thrives 
in the coldest places. Especially pretty 
in half open bud. 
DR. ECKNER — Large, fragrant, semi- 
double, yellow flowers tinted with or- 
ange and coppery rose. Very hardy 
and makes a 6 ft. bush with blooms 
intermittently from June to September. 
GROOTENDORST-SUPREME — Bright 
crimson. A new variety of unusual 
merit commonly called “The Baby 
Rambler Rugosa Rose.” Because of its 
iron-clad hardiness it may be used in 
shrub borders. With its continuous 
production of clusters of bright crim- 
son bloom, it stands out strikingly from 
early summer until frost. An improve- 
ment over the old F. J. Grootendorst. 
GROOTENDORST-PINK—Similar to the 
Red Grootendorst in form and manner 
of growth. The double, clustered flow- 
ers are a delicate shell pink. 
HANSA—Deep red. One of the hardiest, 
most dependable and most all round 
satisfactory of the red roses. The large, 
double red flowers have an attractive 
violet tinge, and are produced in great 
abundance from early summer until 
late fall. 
The ““Bush Roses” 
HUGONIS (Golden Rose of China)—Bears single 
flowers in long, arching sprays. Perfectly 
hardy. Makes a large, shapely shrub of 6 
feet in height. 
2-3 ft., $1.75; 3-4 ft., $2.00 
HARRISON'S YELLOW—Yellow. A _ splendid 
old favorite and one of the finest shrubbery 
DANIELS ESKIMO ROSES 
The Hardiest Everbloomers 
The Rugosa Rose Hybrids, or Eskimo Roses, as they 
are often called because of their extreme hardiness, 
are the best roses for general growing throughout the 
Northwest as they are not only perpetual bloomers, 
most attractive in appearance of bloom, foliage and 
hips, highly fragrant, but are thoroughly hardy with- 
out winter protection in Minnesota and the Dakotas. 
The beautiful double blossoms are vastly superior to 
those of the old style single rugosa roses. They usually 
require no spraying and are the most easily grown of 
all the roses. They should be used frequently in the 
border as are the hardy shrubs. We offer the outstand- 
ing varieties. Roses on this page do not require winter

types for the yard. Early in the season the 
entire bush is covered with a mass of beau- 
tiful, fragrant roses of deep golden yellow. 
2-3 ft., $1.75 
RUBRIFOLIA—Intensely pink, starry flowers, 
borne freely on an erect 6 foot shrub with 
bluish foliage darkly tinged with crimson.

Rose Culture 
Roses delight in a warm location where 
they will receive plenty of sunshine. They 
are at their best when not competing with 
larger plants for their moisture and light. 
The Rugosa Hybrids, however, seem to do 
well under the ordinary competition of 
other plants in the shrub border. 
Any effort expended in making the soil 
rich will be generously rewarded with in- 
crease in both size and number of blooms. 
Roses, especially budded varieties, should 
be planted considerably deeper than they 
grew formerly. 
At planting they should be pruned back 
to two or three stems with only four or 
five buds on each. The entire top should 
then be mounded up with dirt which 
should be left there until the buds start 
to sprout. A mulch of well rotted manure 
or peat on top of the soil will prove highly 
beneficial to the plants through the grow- 
ing season. 
In subsequent years the roses, except- 
ing the climbers and the Rugosa Hybrids 
should be pruned back heavily each spring, 
cutting out any short or spindly growth, or 
wood which shows winter injury, leaving 
each main shoot four to six inches long. 
Any shoots which come up from below the 
bud or graft should be cut away as fast 
as they appear. 
Climbing roses should not be pruned 
back severely. The Rugosas are not head- 
ed back as heavily as other bush roses 
although they should receive enough cut- 
ting each year to stimulate vigorous new 
shoots on which their flowers are borne. 
In late fall those bush roses which re- 
quire protection should have the ground 
heaped up around the base of the plants 
10 to 12 inches high. After freezing, the 
tops are usually tied up with hay or straw 
and around this is placed a wrapping of 
weather resisting paper. To protect the 
climbers they should be laid flat on the 
ground and covered in a similar manner 
to the bush roses.
