PEMBERTON PILLAR OR SHRUB ROSES 
These fine old introductions of The Rev. J. H. Pember- 
ton, classed as Hybrid Musk Roses, have long been a 
specialty with us. When Rose-lovers once get to know 
them, they admire and love them for their repeat- 
blooming qualities and their strong shrubby habit of 
growth. They have a long blooming period during 
June and July, and then again throughout the summer 
and fall seasons. Thrive almost anywhere and require 
very little care. Their heights range from 5 to 8 feet

East Rutherford, N. J. 
and are therefore valuable for pillars, fences, or as 
strong shrubs without support, provided they are kept 
pruned lightly and within bounds. A few varieties 
originated by Capt. Thomas and Peter Lambert are 
included with the Pembertons because their growth and 
bloom habits are similar.
