NEW HARDY EVERGREEN. HYBRID WICHURAIANA ROSES {Memorial Rose). The most remarkable achievement and improvement of a new and distinct type of HARDY ROSES that has been made for a generation. The growth is remarkable for its freedom, as the engraving shows, a single plant, four years old, covering a space of 240 square feet, with long shoots, twelve to twenty-five feet in length, completely covering the ground with its bright, glossy foliage and showy, fragrant flowers. The same plant has made one hundred and eight new growths of remarkable strength during this summer. The foliage of all is leathery in texture, shining, and not only proof against insects, but evergreen ; that is, keeping the foliage all winter—a charac- teristic in roses never before obtained. The flowers are produced most profusely, are all of large size, very fragrant, and can be easily used for cut- flower purposes, as much as any greenhouse tea rose, especially when in bud. The use of these roses will be unlim- ited—for trailing or covering ground where nothing else would grow, to cover roots, stumps and stems of trees, walls and trellises, for cut-flower purposes, and also for forcing as pot plants during spring, especially for Easter. All the following varieties exceed any rose in either hardiness, evergreen foliage, beauty, or fragrance of their flowers. Read the numerous notices in the horticultural and daily press, of which I can give you only the date, as the whole matter would make a book, and vou will be satisfied that this is a wonderful Four-Year-Old Plant of Jersey Beauty, Showing Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the orig
