These charming little Roses, sometimes 
called “Miniatures,” seldom grow more 
than a foot high. Though small and 
dainty, they are comparatively hardy, 
even in cold climates. They should never 
be planted right in among other ever- 
blooming Roses, although they do make 
nice edging plants for the small Rose- 
garden. They have many uses in rock and 
alpine gardens and with low perennials.
