GREENHOUSE ROSES 



We make a business of grafting Roses. Perhaps you have known this for 

 years, and yet we want to impress upon your mind the fact that we do this on a 

 large scale and that our product is not a by-product, nor the leavings from a 

 commercial planting. Roses for the private grower are taken care of here as 

 they should be. They are put away for you. 



We grafted seven hundred and fifty thou- 

 sand this year and w^ill do more next year. 



By the way, Montgomery's Priscilla is coming out next season. Next week 

 we will give you some real news. We are going to tell you the right way to 

 disseminate a new rose.

case. In planting be sure to bury the 

 graft at least three inclies below the 

 surface. Care is needed to remove any 

 Manetti or briar suckers which may 

 come up each season and which, if left 

 unchecked, would eventually crowd out 

 the roses themselves. I should prefer 

 2-year-old field-grown stock. If this is 

 not obtainable, try 4-inch pots of indoor 

 grafted j)lants if you can get them. 



As to varieties, I should recommend 

 the following for your state as being 

 hardy and good bloomers, and a canvass 

 of your state has shown that most of 

 those I have named do particularly well: 

 Caroline Testout, Los Angeles, Lady Hil- 

 lingdon. General MacArthur, Antoine 

 Eivoirc, or Mrs. Taft; Mme. Abel 

 Chatenay, Mme. Edouard Herriot, the 

 Daily Mail rose; Mrs. Aaron Ward, 

 Mme. Ravary, Lady Pirrie, Joseph Hill, 

 Lady Alice Stanley, Richmond, Mme. 

 Melanie Soupert, Mrs. David McKee, 

 Mrs. George Shawyer, Ophelia, Radiance 

 and Duchess of Wellington. 



I have had good success for several 

 years with hybrid teas which had been 

 forced under glass several seasons, 

 thrown out, cut back quite hard, planted 

 rather deeply, well watered and mulched 

 the first season. The second and suc- 

 ceeding seasons, these gave grand crops 

 of flowers of the best quality. C. W.
