ROSES FOR FALL PLANTING 



Many experienced amateurs as well as expert professional growers give preference to fall planting for Roses. We are now booking 

 orders for strong two-year-old field-grown dormant plants of the varieties listed on this and the following pages, delivery of which will 

 be made as soon as the plants are properly ripened, usually late in October or early November. 



One of the advantages of getting Roses in a dormant condition is that the plants take up very little room and can be shipped to 

 almost any distance without fear of loss, and at a minimum of cost. These dormant plants can readily be sent by Parcel Post. We will 

 be pleased to deliver prepaid to destination any of the Roses offered if remittance is made in accordance with note on order blank and 

 inside of front cover of this catalogue to cover special packing and Parcel Post charges. 



Cultural leaflet giving concise instructions on the planting, care, pruning and protection of Roses will be mailed free on application.
