Perfection in size of flower, fragrance, disease resistance and strength of growth predominate in this class, and 
while most varieties flower only in June and July, many will repeat throughout the summer and fall, a few even repeat- 
ing heavily enough to rival some of the Hybrid Teas. Varieties which repeat are indicated by an (R). 
Their uses are varied. They can be grown as bedding Roses at a height of 3 to 4 feet, or allowed to grow into 
shrubs up to 6 feet in height. A few of the more vigorous growers can be trained as pillars, giving remarkable displays 
of bloom in June and July. 
PLANTING DISTANCE: Average 212 to 3 feet. 
PRUNING: If desired as a bedding plant, cut down to 15 to 18 inches. For shrub type, 2 feet or over, as desired. 
For pillar Rose, allow to grow to desired height, cut out dead wood or enough to keep plant within bounds. 
SUMMER PRUNING: Hybrid Perpetuals sometimes outgrow their allotted room, in which case cut the canes back 
to 12 feet. We have noted this summer pruning encourages more repeat blooming.
