Richards’ Roses . . . incomparably better 
Polyantha Roses 
Here we have continuous-blooming Roses that are as hardy as the proverbial oak 
and as easy to grow as the most ordinary shrubs. As permanent bedding plants in masses 
they are unsurpassed and less expensive than annuals such as geraniums. The low-growing 
varieties make glorious low hedges, may be used for edging along paths and driveways, to 
border the beds of taller-growing HTs, or as a foreground planting for evergreens and 
shrubs. They are ideal for cemetery planting as they require very little care and are in 
colorful bloom from June to late October.

HTs gave up altogether and many polyanthas sulked this was 
never without at least half a dozen long-pointed perfectly

other one rose we have ever had.
