ROSES 
Tue Rose has been aptly termed the “Queen of Flowers.’’ Among all the flowering shrubs, 
there is nothing that can compare with the rose. The great variety of color, shape and size of 
flowers, the diversity and character of the foliage and ravishing perfumes give it a wider range 
for decoration than any other single group of plants. When we add to these qualifications ease 
of culture, quick and ample response in blossoms, it is not to be wondered at. In nearly all 
collections of flowering and ornamental shrubs it occupies a first place.
