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 and brilliant 
continuous colors are needed. 
The Grootendorst are double hybrids developed 
to the height of perfection in the Rosa Rugosa 
Shrub Rose class. They endure cold, heat, and 
dryness 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.
