3s & Hy 1914 RELIABLE DOZEN 
A half-century’s experience in intelligent Rose-growing is back of this now famous dozen Roses, selected 
to combine, in a small bed, quality and a variety of charming colors that will be welcomed in any Rose- 
garden, however high the standard; also, for the benefit and convenience of those who prefer to leave the 
selection to us, we offer this C. & J. RELIABLE COLLECTION. Whether you live North, South, East 
or West, here is a set you may order with confidence. Each variety contains the qualities of a high-grade 
Rose. They are all strong, vigorous growers, bloom abundantly, and all are among the hardiest in this 
everblooming class. Just enough in this collection to fill a bed 3 feet wide by 8 feet long. They will bloom 
the first season and every succeeding season, all summer long, even the one-year size; best about them, 
however, is the beauty of the flowers, in form, color, fragrance, every way. But read the descriptions, 
and note that most of these Roses are illustrated elsewhere. If planted in your garden, you'll 
like them, we feel sure.

We are mailing you a photo under separate cover to show you what The two hundred Roses you first shipped me are doing finely; not one 
Ros2s from Conard & Jones do in Iowa. This is only a very small part of of them has died. They have been planted four weeks and every one of 
our garden. We have enjoyed a feast of Roses for two months, from about them is now shooting out new shoots, and some of them have buds on. I 
100 bushes. We certainly can testify to the reliability of C. & i. Roses, and am so well pleased that I cannot fail to commend them and those who
