H!I—ROSA MULTIFLORA 
LIVING ROSE FENCE 
Rosa Multiflora is an excellent, tight hedge fence for large areas, but is not 
suitable for small lawns. With its thick, intertwining branches and innumerable 
thorns, it develops in a few years into an erect, 8 ft., stock-proof hedge. It holds 
down fence line weeds, it does not rob the soil around it, nor does it spread like the 
old Osage Orange. Wonderful for bird sanctuaries, a splendid snow fence, and ideal 
for erosion control; Rosa Multiflora has been strongly recommended by the State 
Conservation Board. In early June the plants are profusely covered with lovely 
white single roses; the leaves come early in the spring and stay on until late fall. 
It requires no clipping, no training, no supports. Plant | ft. apart.
