Shaul Roses, Rugosas aud their Hybrids 
These very interesting Rose varieties—some new, some old—have long been specialties 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. They do not require special soil prep- 
aration or coddling of any kind. They are hardy and disease-resistant as the Rugosas and offer a wider color range 
and 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 but 
very little pruning is required the first two years. If occasional canes or stout branches get too tall, prune them to the 
desired height and width any time it suits you.

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-pmk. They are borne 
singly on long stems as well as in clusters.

want a good Rose against a background of 
deciduous foliage. $2.00 each; 3 or more, $1.80 
each.
