EVEN IN THE DIFFICULT CLIMATE OF ST, LOUIS AFTER SEVERAL YEARS y,,,, ^.^ ;,^_,^ 



I am very glad to report that the Roses I boiiKlit from you several seasons buck are just doing fine. My friends cannot 



understand how 1 can raise such beautiful Roses. The hist winter was severe on Rose plants, but I am glad to say tliat I 



lost only one plant of those which I purchased from you. which shows that the plants you send out are liard\' and \'igorous. 



W'lien in need of any other plants I shall be pleased to place my order with you. — H. H. F., St. Louis, Mo. 



•CHATEAU DE CLOS VOUGEOT. Velvety ma- 

 roon, shadi'd with ficr\- red. It is as dark as the 

 famous "l)lack" Rose, Prinee Camille de 

 Rohan, hut blooms more freely. The plants are 

 rather low and spreading in habit of growth. 



Laurent Carle. Splendid, firm, lasting flowers 



• GEORGE C. WAUD. The flowers are large and 

 full, of perfect form and very sweet scented. 

 The color is a glowing red suffused with orange- 

 red. A splendid Rose for amateurs. Awarded 

 Gold Medal, National Rose Society. 



*GRUSS AN TEPLITZ. Dark rich crimson, 

 passing to velvety fiery red. An exceptionally 

 free bloomer and one of the brightest colored 

 red Roses grown. The canes are strong and 

 vigorous, producing blooms constantly from 

 June till frost. A very suitable variety to use 

 as a dividing-line between two properties where 

 a regular hedge-plant is not desired. An almost 

 continuous bloomer. 



• CRIMSON QUEEN. An excellent Rose for cut- 

 ting. The l(jng, pointed buds open into hand- 

 some, well-formed flowers of velvety crimson 

 color. Vigorous in growth and an excellent 

 variety for the garden. ^,^^^, ^ ,^^,^ 



I have never planted more splendid plants 

 than those which you sent me a few days 

 ago. My garden is primarily a Rose-garden 

 and I have bought Roses from many places, 

 but those which you sent me are the strongest 

 plants I have ever had. — Mrs. F. H. W., 

 Mt. Jackson, V'a. 



•ETOILE DE FRANCE (Star of 

 France). Intensely brilliant 



crimson, with the center cerise- 

 red. A deliciously sweet-scented 

 Rose. The flowers are large, of 

 cupped form, very full and abun- 

 dantly produced. A strong- 

 growling, free-blooming Rose that 

 we recommend highly. 



Jmie 12, 1924. 

 I have never seen anything more beautiful 

 than the Roses ordered from you last year and 

 the year before. 1 only wish I had space 

 enough to put in many more bushes. — Mrs. 

 S. S., Baltimore, Md. 



•GENERAL MACARTHUR. Makes 

 an array of brilliant glowing 

 crimson-scarlet flowers from early 

 in June until frost comes. It is 

 deliciously scented and the blooms 

 come on long stems, suitable for 

 cutting. ^^^.; ^_ ^^^^_ 



I am enclosing my check for $66 for the 

 Roses just received from you. I have never 

 seen such beautiful Rose bushes, and am 

 more than pleased with these and with the 

 advice and service rendered. — Dr. F. M. H., 

 Richmond, Va. 



•LAURENT CARLE. (See cut.) Brilliant, velvety 

 carmine. Flowers large, of perfect form, and 

 intensely fragrant. One of the finest Roses 

 grown as it produces its splendid flowers 

 throughout the season and the blooms come 

 nearly as good in hot, dry weather as under 

 more favorable conditions. 



•RED RADIANCE. This is a counterpart of the 

 glorious pink Radiance, but the color is clear 

 cerise-red which does not fade. Blooms are 

 large and double. Plant an entire bed of this 

 vigorous, healthy Rose, and you can depend 

 upon having abundant, fragrant and handsome 

 blooms for cutting from June until frost.
