POT-GROWN ROSES 
FOR MID-SUMMER PLANTING 
This is the second season in which we are offering Roses for mid-summer planting and in which we are greatly encouraged by 
the many satisfactory reports received from customers who tried summer planting last year. 
By planting now you not only gain practically a full season’s growth, but, if conditions are at all favorable, you will secure a 
fair amount of flowers at once and during the fall, and if the cultural notes on page 175 of our this year’s Garden Book are followed 
you will be laying the foundation for a grand display of flowers next spring and summer. 
This, while it holds true on all the various 
types of Roses, is particulary the case with the Hybrid-Tea varieties, which, on account of their remarkable free flowering qualities 
and comparative hardiness, have given a new impetus to Rose planting with most gratifying results. 
The plants which we supply at the present time are all strong two-year-old plants in five-inch pots in such condition that if 
given any chance at all, they will give quick returns. 
HARDY EVERBLOOMING HYBRID-TEA ROSES 
For Garden culture the Hybrid-Tea Roses now take the foremost rank. They combine not only the free-flowering habit or 
the Tea Rose with the rich and varied colors of the other classes, but also comparative hardiness, standing the winter, with pro- 
tection as recommended in the cultural notes on page 175 of our this year’s Garden Book.
