Htbrid Swekt Briers Memorial, or Evergreen Roses The type of this group of Roses, Bosa Wichuraiana, is of Japanese origin, aud flowers during June and July. This, as well as the"varieties that have originated from it, are of a trailing habit of growth, very hardy and are recommended for covering graves; hence one of its names—Memorial Rose—climbing over walls, arbors, stumps of trees, or for trailing over rocks or rough ground; in fact, anywhere where a climbing or trailing Rose can be used. The foliage is of a leathery texture, of a beautiful shining green, and not only proof against all insects, but is retained on the plants until late in the winter, making them almost evergreen. Pruning should be done in the same way as recommended for the Hardy Climbing sorts. (See page 163.) Evergreen Qem. buff, changing to creamy white, very double, foliage dense, of rich bronzy-green.
