EVERBLOOMING HYBRID 
TEA ROSES 
The hardiest and most satisfactory type of roses for this 
latitude. The varieties we offer are the best of their color, and 
of proved hardiness that will thrive in any ordinary garden 
soil. 
In pruning out, cut all weak growth and cut back the strong 
eanes to within 9 inches of the ground for large flowers, but 
if quantity is desired, leave the canes 2 or 3 feet high accord- 
ing to strength.
