The very useful Grootendorst family is best de 
scribed as a group of Shrub Roses which belong in 
every landscape planting where a group of colorful 
shrubs of moderate height (up to 4 feet) and bril- 
liant continuous colors are needed. 
The Grootendorsts are double hybrids developed 
sto the height of perfection in the Rosa Rugosa 
Shrub Rose class. They endure cold, heat, and dry- 
ness very well, and even the poor soil and salt air 
of the seaside. 

They bloom generously all season. The rich old- 
rose fragrance, the lively color, and the healthy, 
rough, and wrinkled foliage combine to make the 
Grootendorst Roses an integral part of well-planned 
landscaping.
