 NOT FAIRY TALES 



We have many letters like these: 



700 Blooms on One Bush 



My Mme. Gregoire Staechelin, 

 which I bought from you three years 

 ago, has been in bloom the entirei 

 month, and we have cut, without any 

 exaggeration, from 700 to 800 blooms 

 from it, and it still has several hundred 

 on it now. Some of the stems were 

 2 feet long. It caused quite a sensation 

 at the flower show here last week, and 

 of course carried off first prize. Our 

 florist here says he has seen thousands 

 of climbing Roses but none to 

 equal this. — -Miss L. N., Franklin, 

 Tenn.
