Hardy Ht ybrid Porpelual “Roses | 
The varieties listed below are unquestionably the best that can be selected 
in the Hybrid Perpetual class, which, before the development of the Hybrid 
Teas, was the most popular type for garden planting, and even now they 
dare not be overlooked, but should be used extensively in conjunction with 
the other sorts, and especially so in localities where the hardiness of the 
Hybrid Tea varieties has not been established.

perennial plants or low shrubs in front of the border. Unlike most Roses, it 
flowers freely in light shade. Several good sized blooms form a fine cluster of 
pink flowers enhanced by a shading of pure salmon. The plant is compoct

of time. Because of its great usefulness, hardiness and beauty, it has become
