OUT-OF-THE-ORDINARY ROSES 



Unique Hardy Moss Roses 



The beautiful buds, delicious fragrance, and 

 perfect hardiness of the Moss Roses make them 

 favorites everywhere, and deservedly so. They need 

 rich, loamy soil and an annual dressing of well- 

 rotted manure for best results. These Roses are 

 fine for planting in the northern states.

. . . Also kindly note the Rose, Mme. 

 Edouard Herriot you sent me two years ago 

 gave 37 blossoms, beginning June 23 and 

 ending middle of September. This. I believe, 

 equals the best records in the American Rose 

 Annual for last year and to think it was done 

 in a climate over 6,000 feet above sea-level. — 

 A. B., Cheyenne, Wyo., June 15. 1922.

 able. • 2-yr., Star size, $1 □

STANDARD or TREE ROSES 



Tree Roses, to give satisfaction, must be grown on firm, straight thick 

 stems with well-branched heads. Stocks from abroad are no longer available 

 and the various plantations we have examined in this country are not up to 

 the grade that we want for our patrons. Therefore, rather than supply an 

 inferior grade, we are, this season, offering none.
