Shunk Kodes—otHer THAN 
These very interesting Rose varieties—some new, some old—have long been special- 
ties with Bobbink & Atkins. Charming landscape effects are achieved with these Roses when 
they are planted in shrubbery borders or in small groups where Roses are desired instead of 
the more common flowering shrubs. Like the true Rugosas, they do not require special soil 
preparation or coddling of any kind. They are practically as hardy and disease-resistant as 
the Rugosas but offer a wider color range and more variation in height. 
Many are everblooming or remontant, as noted, producing plenty of good blooms inter- 
mittently after the June crop. 
Space them about 3 to 4 feet apart; prune or cut out the old and worn-out canes after the 
third or fourth year but very little pruning is required the first two years. If occasional canes 
or stout branches get too tall, prune them to the desired heighi and width any time it suits you. 
BELINDA. (Bentall, 1936.) Large trusses of 
carmine-pink blooms. The individual truss on 
plants established for several years is formed 
exactly like the perennial phlox and is the 
only Rose we know showing this novel char- 
acteristic. Upright, with beautiful foliage. 
3 to 4 feet. From a distance, these fine trusses 
give the same general effect and color of the 
well-known Crape Myrtle grown in the South. 
Remontant. $2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.80 each. 
AUTUMN BOUQUET. (M. R. Jacobus.) New. 
An everblooming pink shrub Rose introduced 
by Bobbink & Atkins. It is seldom that a good 
husky shrub Rose, attaining a height of about 
4 feet, produces successive crops of glorious 
blooms from June right on through October. 
The color of both bud and open bloom is a 
pronounced carmine-pink. They are borne 
singly on long stems as well as in clusters at 
certain times. Perhaps the color is not so 
unusual but a shrub Rose of this type has many 
uses in a border of other flowering shrubs where 
you want a good Rose against a background of 
deciduous foliage. One of the chief attributes 
of Autumn Bouquet is its very pleasing and 
pronounced fragrance at all times. $2.00 each; 
3 or more, $1.80 each.
