ROSES ON THE MANETTI STOCK. 



** Considering that the Manetti has held its own for nearly half a centur\% there can be no question 

 of its merit or value as a stock. It was the Manetti that brought new life to the Rose, and with it began 

 a new era in Rose growing. We are indebted to this stock for the enormous increase in the cultivation 

 of the Rose, and the commercial industry' it has brought about. Amateurs who formerly grew only a 



few dozen Roses soon began to grow thousands." — John- Cranston- in The Garden.
