A Rose Garden Planting Scheme 



CHAPLIN BROS.. LTD. 



Messrs. Chaplin Bros.* nurseries are situated in 

 the north of Enfield and south of Waltham Cross, on 

 the main road to Cambridge, where Roses are grown 



in large quantities of the newest and most up-to-date varie- 

 ties, and also all old varieties of any merit. 



They have introduced many new varieties, some 

 of whch have become most popular, and specimens cf 

 which may be seen at all the leading exhibitions, where 

 for many years Messrs. Chaplin Bros, 'have been suc- 

 cessful exhibitors and winners of prizes. Intending 

 purchasers, however, can do much better for them- 

 selves, and form a greater appreciation of the quality 

 and usefulness of their plants, by seeing them growing 

 in the open fields, where habit and character are noted 

 far better than on the exhibition bench. For that pur- 

 pose Messrs. Chaplin are always ready to show to all 

 visitors their Roses, and give any information at their 

 command in respect of the growing of the same. 



As regards the varieties suitable for varied pur- 

 poses, growth and colour effect can be better seen 

 when trees are viewed growing by the hundred at 

 the nurseries. 



Joyning's nurseries are only 12 miles from Lon- 

 don and a mile from Waltham Cross station, and 

 trams and 'buses pass the premises at all times of the 

 day, so that the Rose loving public can easily pay a 

 visit. 



In conjunction with the nurseries they have a 

 farm situated on the Theobald Estate, where larg-e 

 collections of plants are grown for Covent Garden and 

 retail trade. The best time for visiting the nursery and 

 farm is from the ist of July to the 30th of September, 

 when they cordially invite inspection. 



Messrs. Chaplin Bros, supplied the gardens at 

 Cairo with Roses during Lord Kitchener's term of 

 oflfice in Egypt; and with his permission, named one of
