NEw FLORAL GUIDE, SPRING 1911. 
EVER=-BLOOMING TEA ROSES 
The Roses in this class are highly valued because of their fine colors and exquisite tea fragrance. They 
will bloom freely from June until November. If thoroughly established during the Summer, they will, 
with few exceptions, prove hardy here, with protection. 
We wish to remind our friends of the superior quality of these plants; they are not the small slips 
so often sent out, which have been forced under a high temperature in little “thumb pots” into a quick 
unhealthy growth, but these plants are the product of years of experience and our own improved method 
of culture, insuring the greatest possible vitality and abundance of bloom. See p. 26-27 for other colors.
